Camping:
On the Wind River district of the Shoshone National Forest are
campgrounds with both tent and trailer facilities. There are units
provided for picnics and outdoor cooking, with fireplace grates and
tables available in some of the more accessible grounds. Three large
campgrounds are found along US Highways 26/287, these are Brook's
Lake, Falls and Pinnacles campground. Several camping areas that are
only accessible by dirt road, but which provide the camper with a
feeling of seclusion that is not possible along the busy highway.
Such are Horse Creek, East Fork, Double Cabin and Warm Springs
campgrounds.
Hunting:
For those who enjoy hunting, this region offers numerous big game
opportunities for all big game animals found in the state with the
exception of the Mountain Goat. Antelope, white tail and mule deer,
elk, moose, bear and bighorn sheep all have their habitat in the
surrounding mountains. The Dubois area also has outfitters and
hunting guides which non-residents are required to have to hunt in
wilderness areas, some of them are listed HERE.
Hiking:
Some of us, though tender elsewhere, are tough of foot and long on
breath. If this is the case, there is no more suitable place than
the mountains surrounding the Dubois area to don pack and good stout
boots for a hike along the many trails. The Dubois area also has
outfitters who can provide drop trips for climbers as well as
horseback camping trips, some of them are listed HERE.
Fishing:
Numerous streams and lakes in the Upper Wind River Valley boast
excellent fishing opportunities. Non-resident fishing licenses may
be obtained at various locations around Dubois and public access to
the river is provided by several locations along the highway. The
Dubois area also has fishing guides to show where to catch the big
ones and make sure you have a great time, some of them are listed
HERE.
