Both Emigrant and Wildrose campgrounds have water available. At least they did when camped there last spring and I assume that hasn't changed. I hiked to the top of Wildrose peak and drove up Augerberry. I personally would be very hesitant to try to bike up it Augerberry, its a very rough, steep road. Awesome view from the top though. I'm assuming Wildrose also provides excellent views, but the peak was wrapped in clouds when I hiked it, couldn't see a thing. I even got hailed on during my way back down! Nice hike nonetheless though.
