DRIPPING SPRINGS CAMPGROUND (UT)

Dripping Springs Campground (Ut)

## Overview

Take a step back in time and traverse the same scenic wonders that explorers
such as John Wesley Powell and William Ashley once explored. The Green River
provides spectacular fishing and river-running opportunities, as well as
unique geology, outlaw history and Native American rock art. So come to
navigate the waters and cast a rod in an adventure the whole family can enjoy.  
  
  
The Green River Float-In Campsites contain 17 sites for river goers to camp
along the mighty Green River. Some of these sites can be reached on foot but
most of these sites can only be reached by boat.  

## Recreation

**Section "A" (Flaming Gorge Dam to Little Hole Boat Launch)**  
  
Section "A" of the Green River begins just below the Flaming Gorge Dam and
proceeds seven miles through a narrow, breathtaking canyon to the Little Hole
take-out. The towering red canyon cliffs, ponderosa pine, glassy clear water,
abundant trout and rapids (class I and II) make section "A" of the Green River
world famous. The Little Hole National Recreation Trail allows foot access to
all seven miles of this stretch of river.  
  
**Section "B" (Little Hole to Browns Park)**  
  
It's a little more remote but that means there are fewer people, if that's the
experience you're looking for. Limited access in this section allows for
healthy brown trout populations to thrive.  
  
There are 17 river camps in section "B" that can be accessed only by hiking or
floating in.  
  
**Section "C" (Browns Park to the Utah/Colorado Border)**  
  
Section "C" is the longest of the three sections. It meanders through the high
desert valley of Browns Park to the Colorado state line, with wide open
features and a lot of flat water. It's considered the best place to catch a
football size trout on a dry fly, but it is also said to be the most
challenging for fishing.  
  
  
The Green River offers excellent fishing for rainbow, brown and cutthroat
trout. For more information on fishing the Green River, please visit  Utah's
Department of Wildlife Resources website .  
  
  

## Facilities

All of the river camps are equipped with a picnic table, campfire ring with
benches, tent pads and a blind for a portable toilet. No potable water is
available.  
  
  
Vault toilets can be found near Cottonwood Camp and Red Creek Camp.
