About this Location

Facility Overview

Highline Trail RV Park LLC is an open-air surface property conveniently situated at 8718 US-191 in Boulder, Wyoming (Sublette County). Positioned along the major scenic corridor connecting Rock Springs and Pinedale toward Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks, this location serves as a versatile rest stop, staging area, and parking facility. Because it operates as an outdoor, open-sky lot without parking garages or covered decks, there are no vertical clearance restrictions or low-hanging beams. This makes it exceptionally well suited for high-profile vehicles, including lifted pickup trucks, camper vans, overland utility rigs, passenger trailers, fifth wheels, and full-size Class A motorhomes. The grounds feature broad turning radii and spacious, graded gravel bays that accommodate long combinations and hitched vehicles with ease.
