Blucher Creek Campground is a Bureau of Land Management site in the Rock Springs Field Office in western Wyoming, about 74 miles from Rock Springs and 70 miles from Lander. It is an accessible site, with fire rings, picnic tables and a vault toilet all set up for visitors with mobility needs. The stay limit is 14 days, and no fees are charged to use it. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from the nearby South Pass City weather station show July highs around 78°F with lows near 41°F, and temperatures at the campground run a little cooler than that because it sits a few hundred feet lower. Nearby options include the Little Sandy hike about 2 miles away and the Sweetwater Guard Station Campground at roughly 4 miles. The Christina Pass hike and Sweetwater Gap are both within about 4.5 miles.
