Fremont County

Among the regions of the United States, Fremont County stands out for its sweep from the Wind River Basin to the high Wind River Range. The Wind River crosses the county’s broad interior, while the Continental Divide and rugged mountain country shape its western edge. Lander, the county seat, is associated with access to nearby public lands, and Riverton is the largest city. Much of the county lies within the Wind River Indian Reservation, homeland of the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho peoples; their presence remains central to the area’s living cultural identity. Open sagebrush country, irrigated valleys and mountain terrain meet here. Seek out webcams in nearby communities for complementary perspectives on Fremont County’s basin and mountain country.
