difference between campground and campsite area (of land) designated for camping or parking RVs vs pitch/site to camp/park Explanation: see here where it is fully explained that in Yellowstone the CAMPGROUND is each entire (serviced) area set aside/designated for parking RVs etc or setting up tewnts whereas CAMPSITES are the INDIVIDUAL pitches within these campgrounds where an individual or family group can set up their tent or park their RV https://www.nps.gov/yell/planyourvisit/campgrounds.htm "Yellowstone National Park offers 12 campgrounds with over 2,000 established campsites". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 hrs (2023-04-29 13:07:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- So, quite simply, a "campground" in US English is the entire area set aside and each of these campgrounds contains individual pitches or campsites -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 hrs (2023-04-29 13:11:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hence 12 campgrounds but 2,000 pitches or sites |
