Wyoming whitewater - Boulder Creek, Sublette County

Sublette county, Boulder Lake section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 
  The scenic beauty of Wyoming and the cool fresh water will make you feel great. The sections for whitewater rafting and kayaking here in Wyoming are often more challenging than in other states, so better not forget that many of the rivers here are not very forgiving. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. Getting your paddling muscles activated and a chance to spend some time outdoors have a lot of people coming here. This section
    is quite short so it's not like you're gonna spend hours on the river in one stretch. This is one of a small number of paddling sections in this river system, there are a few others too. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this is an area with not too many other rivers
for that.

Briefly about the general area:
Boulder Creek is pretty waterless regularly; May is the wettest month with most rain, and the driest month is February. Hiking along the Half Moon Trail is pleasant fun, and going for a hike along the Fayette Lake Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this region.
For the duration of the long summer days at Boulder Creek temperatures are generally in the 70's. When the night sets in temperatures descend down into the 40's. The winter brings highs down to the 20's, and after the sun is down during the wintertime temperatures at Boulder Creek descend into the-10's.
