Follow us as we discover a gorgeous gem in Jasper National Park called the Miette Campground. Formerly called the Pocahontas campground, it was renamed for multiple reasons (link below) but to clear any discrepancies it is the campground located along the Miette road which also leads to the hotsprings.
