Lakes in the Wind Rivers
There are so many lakes in the Wind Rivers
that I doubt there is an accurate count. It is said that there are over
1300 lakes and half hold fish. Plus there are hundreds of miles of creeks
and streams. Fishing here means an opportunity to catch wild cutts and
brookies, rainbows and browns, and is one of the few places to angle for
Golden trout.
Whether you decide to backpack, hike, or
drive to your fishing destination, the Wind Rivers are not to be missed!
The Wind River Range is divided between two
forest districts:
Bridger-Teton National Forest is on the
west side of the Continental Divide; Shoshone National Forest is on the
east. The Bridger Wilderness lies in Bridger-Teton N.F.
