all campsites accessible only on foot or by horseback are considered backcountry campsites and they are available by permit only, but camping is allowed in most of these backcountry zones year-round. the national park service has a combination of specific sites and zones for backcountry camping with a set carrying capacity of overnight stays per zone to protect the resources from overcrowding. open fires are not permitted in the backcountry and all food must be stored in an interagency grizzly bear committee approved bear-resistant container. as of 2012, only four brands of bear-resistant containers had been approved for use in the grand teton national park backcountry. additionally, hikers may use an approved bear spray to elude aggressive bears.
