Beneath the Wind River Range, this cowboy town offers a genuine slice of the West without the tourist crowds. The Museum of the Mountain Man brings fur trade history to life with surprising detail. Anglers find paradise in the Green River's blue-ribbon trout waters, while hikers disappear into Bridger-Teton National Forest's wilderness. Fremont Lake provides summer swimming and boating against a backdrop of snow-capped peaks. In winter, White Pine Ski Resort offers uncrowded slopes where lift lines are practically nonexistent. The Path of the Pronghorn Sculpture reminds visitors of the ancient migration routes still active today.
