## Recreation

Lamoille Creek is a popular stream among fly-fishermen. The creek contains
brook and wild rainbow trout.  
  
Lamoille Canyon offers numerous hiking and horseback riding trails that lead

During the first-come, first-served season (typically late-September through

turned off for the fall and winter seasons. Please call the local district
office for most up to date information.

The campground sits at the mouth of Thomas Canyon, a part of larger Lamoille
Canyon, at an elevation of 7,200 feet. Both canyons are within the beautiful
