Taylor Ranch Road

Taylor Ranch Road is a short and easy gravel spur off Gros Ventre Road that offers scenic lake views, several small campsites, and access to Lower Slide Lake. The road is open to the public for a brief stretch before it enters private ranch property.

Just before crossing the bridge, two small campsites can be found tucked into the trees along the river on the west side. After the bridge, there is a small cluster of campsites that could accommodate up to four groups, depending on spacing. This area also offers excellent beach access directly across from the campsites, making it a convenient spot for those looking to enjoy the lake.

The road ends shortly after this cluster at a manmade eagle's nest. It is best to turn around here, as there are no additional turnouts before reaching private property. While the drive is short, it provides a peaceful and scenic stop for camping or lake recreation near Lower Slide Lake.

Important Camping Notes:

• A 5-day maximum stay limit is in effect from May 1st through Labor Day, and a 14-day limit the rest of the year.
• Bears are common in the area; thus, all food and attractants must be stored in bear-resistant containers or hard-sided vehicles.
