Wind River country

Wind River Country brings to life a remote, magnificent and little known part of northwest Wyoming near Yellowstone Park. It has all the beauty of its famous neighbor, Jackson Hole, just across the Continental Divide, and much more of historical interest. It contains the thriving Wind River Indian Reservation of over 2 million acres, the spectacular Wind River Range with Wyoming₂s highest mountain, and vast uncrowded national forests. Wind River country is roughly twice the size of New Jersey which has about 250 times its density of population. In some ways, it is the land that time blessedly forgot. Tourism does not dominate the scene. It is still a culture of the old west, where the frontier qualities of courage, strength, and determination are revered. The picturesque characters living here tend to be resourceful, fiercely independent and physically fit into extreme old age. The vast wilderness areas, rushing streams, limpid lakes and rugged mountains make this an ideal location for viewing wildlife, fishing, horseback riding, mountain climbing and many other outdoor sports.
