Northwest Wyoming Lakes, River & Falls

The largest active dune field in North America (yup, right here in Wyoming), the Killpecker Dunes total nearly 109,000 acres (three times the size of our nation's capital) in the Red Desert and stretch 150 miles each from the Green River Basin across the Continental Divide and into the Great Divide Basin. For those unfamiliar with the intricacies of Wyoming geography, they're generally in the southwestern part of the state.

Shell Falls on Shell Creek
Fred Pflughoft

Five Springs Falls
Five Springs Falls Recreation Site, along Hwy 14A about 25 miles east of Lovell, provides unique vertical cliff habitat that is kept moist by the spray from a 100 foot waterfall. The granite walls surrounding the falls provide a home for four rare and sensitive plant species. View the waterfall by walking a quarter-mile trail upstream from the BLM campground. The campground offers a pleasant setting for a picnic while viewing the falls.

Shell Falls
Shell Creek tumbles down steeply pitched granite and then is soothed and gentled downstream into a quietly running creek. An interpretive center for visitors is located at the Shell Falls Overlook. Adequate parking facilities make it easy to safely pull off the mountain highway.
