Twin Pines RV Park & Campground

The Great Outdoors

You can start with a trip to Wind River, the Indian reservation located pretty much across the street from your Lander RV rental. Now, this place is so full of amazing things to do, such as Nordic skiing, dog sledding, and even national parks, that it would be impossible to do it justice here - you’ll just have to go see the gorgeous mountains, fantastic wildlife, and amazing hiking trails for yourself. Something you shouldn’t miss, though, is the grave of Sacajawea, the woman who guided Lewis and Clark on their journey to through the West. There are also gold panning and driving tours on the menu in this extraordinary area.Whether you stay at the reservation or not, you can find and follow some of the old trails that took people from east to west when the pioneers and early settlers wanted to make the most of the land and find themselves some rich soil and a place to call their own. You can find the Oregon, Mormon, and California trails in the area, and try to imagine what it was like to leave your home and family, heading into the unknown with nothing but a covered wagon between you and the wilderness. You can even reenact the emigration.It’s hard to beat all the culture and history you’ve already seen, but Sink’s Canyon State Park is willing to give it a go. With its amazing wildlife and stunning mountain vistas, this park seems to be a contender - especially if you take the mysterious Little Popo Agie River into consideration. Feed some shimmery rainbow trout by the river, or go on an adventure to one of the best rock climbing areas around, also located in Sink’s Canyon.
