Camp Davis

Nestled in the mountains just south of Jackson Hole, Wyoming and tucked between the Hoback River and Bridger Teton National Forest, the Camp Davis Rocky Mountain Field Station has provided an unparalleled experiential learning opportunity for University of Michigan students since 1929. Camp Davis hosts courses in geology, environmental sciences, ecology, and the humanities.

This ideal outdoor classroom offers some of the most scenic and varied geology, ecology and history in North America with a location within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, and at the intersection of the Yellowstone hotspot, Rocky Mountains, and Basin and Range.
