Houlihan-Bobcat Public Access Area

This BLM-managed access area provides fishing access to the South Fork Shoshone River along with a primitive campground featuring horse trailer parking, hitching rails, bear-proof food storage boxes, and vault toilets—ideal for equestrian and backcountry users.

Located 28 miles southwest of Cody via Highway 291, the site operates year-round on a first-come, first-served basis with no fees, though winter access may be limited by snow.

The area is active grizzly bear habitat requiring proper food storage and bear awareness.
