The display contiguous to the highway gives a good history of Camp Hale and its role in training ski troops in WWII. There's not much left to see; only a few foundations remain but the area around the former Camp and the drive are worth the trip if you like beautiful mountain scenery.

We went in mid April and there was still a lot of snow on the ground, around 3 feet. The site is not well marked at all. It only says "Point of Interest" and nothing specific to Camp Hale.

I come up to Camp Hale quite often and rent either ATVs or Snowmobiles from Nova Guides! It's always a blast!! Oh and don't forget rafting trips with them also.

The camp is in a beautiful part... More

The scenery is spectacular only to be completely ruined by management. We booked months in advance requesting a good view. Being the first to book a cabin for said weekend, we were shocked to arrive and find out we would be in the cabin facing the parking lot and big white commercial vans. When we questioned how this happened, we... More

Being a local to the area I frequent Camp Hale quite often. Camp Hale is nestled in the middle of the White River National Forest and is full of history and beautiful views. There are more than enough campsites allowing you to stay all night and wake up in your own nature paradise, or you can also stay at the... More
