Pinedale is safe and friendly with a relaxed atmosphere. Pinedale is located on Hwy 191 on the western slopes of the Wind River Mountain Range and the Bridger Wilderness Area. With its roots as a ranching community, outdoor recreation has also always been an important part of the lifestyle of this western town. Deer, moose and other wildlife are often seen within the city limits. Recreation opportunities are just minutes away.
Fremont Lake, Wyoming's second largest natural lake, is located just four miles from Pinedale. White Pine Ski Area and Resort is 10 miles to the east in the Wind River Mountains. The Continental Divide Snowmobile Trail and Continental Divide Mountain Biking Trail go through Pinedale.
The Wind River Range stretches more than 100 miles in western Wyoming and contains 35 named peaks over 13,000 feet in elevation. Gannett Peak, Wyoming's highest, is in the Wind River Range. Seven of the largest glaciers in the Rocky Mountains are located in the Wind River Range. There are no roads in the wilderness, and mechanized vehicles, including mountain bikes and snowmobiles, are not allowed. The Wind River Range encompasses an area of 2.25 million acres and forms a triple divide for three major western watersheds: the Columbia River, the Colorado River, and the Missouri. The Winds are a mecca for backcountry travelers and offer exceptional backcountry trail trips, mountaineering, technical rock climbing, and wilderness experiences.
