The Wapiti Campground...not to be confused with the Wapiti Lodge - which has really good food BTW ... is a USDA/Natl Park campsite...$15 a day no electricity, $20 a day with electric hook ups. No water/sewer at the campsites.
Anytime after 1 Aug in Wyoming in the Yellowstone area make sure you have some rain gear, some cold gear, and some thing in between. We camp outside Yellowstone and get a pass for a few days and explore Yellowstone at our leisure.
A little off the beaten path is the Sunlight Basin north of Cody and extending west to Yellowstone's north side....we love this area more...no cool geysers n stuff, but it is a lot more relaxed.

Last year we stayed at Mack's inn out side of yellow stone they have a bunch of cabins at reasonable prices and aren't to far from west Yellowstone we really enjoyed it. Jackson hole is nice but has a noticeable "Californian on vacation" thing going. I would suggest bringing swim shorts and water shoes and going to the fire he in the park. The water is warm and you can float down the river or just relax I think my family enjoyed it the most while we were there and I've been going there for over 30 years.

Check out Cooke city and the Beartooth Pass. It is claimed to be the most scenic drive in America.

Weather could go any direction after labor day, but generally its much like Colorado at or above 7k ft. If you're looking for a nice clean economical place to stay, I highly recommend pine shadows in west Yellowstone. Everything from standard hotel rooms to condos that sleep 8-10. If you need contact info, pm me and I can get it to you, I've been staying there every year for quite a few years on snowmobile trips in the winter.

Subscribed... We are going this summer, assuming it doesn't blow first. ;)

I've gone in October before and the weather was great and even better was the lack of people and traffic. Which makes driving 50+ miles from main point to main point that much easier.

We went Labor Day weekend 3 years ago. It got down into the 20's at night but was great during the daytime. My 20 degree bag didn't cut it, so we got a motel in Teton for the last night of our anniversary weekend. I didn't feel like telling the wife happy anniversary through a small hole in my sleeping bag!
