This section of the Green River is popular with wildlife enthusiasts who enjoy
the many species of birds and small mammals who make this area their home. Elk
and mule deer frequent the area, and kokanee salmon and trout inhabit the
waters. This is cattle country- in the June, cowboys round up the thousands of
cattle which graze in the area through the winter, and herd them together in
what is called the "Green River Drift."

Upper Green River Recreation Area

The Green River/Warren Bridge River Access Area provides an opportunity to
enjoy the Green River and related recreation activities. The high elevation
and rolling prairie environment provides many recreation opportunities amid
stunning vistas of the Wind River Mountains.  
  
A network of graveled roads connects to 12 separate riverside camp areas
scattered along nine miles of the Green River. Most vehicles and medium-sized
RV's can safely access these riverside camp areas. RVs and groups with
numerous vehicles should carefully select the appropriate camp areas. Please
avoid vehicle congestion at the smaller sites to ensure river access for day
users and boaters. There are plenty of access sites to consider, simply spend
a little time searching for the proper site.  
  
Boat Ramps are provided at river access sites 1, 2, 4, and 12. Boat ramps are
well suited for standard trucks and cars with trailers. Four-wheel drive may
be needed at times. Parking space may be limited.  
  
Activities Include: Fishing, float boating, camping, hunting, swimming,
picnicking, hiking and wildlife viewing.

The CCC Ponds/Pinedale Pathway are a perfect destination for those who enjoy
fishing, hiking, biking, wildlife viewing and cross-country skiing.  
  
The original CCC Ponds were developed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC)
during The Great Depression in an effort by Franklin D. Roosevelt to create
jobs in the 1930s. The work consisted of reforestation, road and park
construction, flood control and beautification projects. The CCC Ponds are an
important historical feature to the Pinedale Area. .  
  
These Ponds were re-constructed during the 1990s and given specific themes to
provide for various wildlife species: the Fish Pond, Duck Pond, Beaver Pond,
and Frog Pond. A walking path was added to enable public access, as well as
the installation of benches, interpretive signs, a warming hut and a parking
lot. Attached to the CCC Ponds parking area is a paved bike path called the
Pinedale Pathway that loops from the parking lot back down into town for a
round trip of about 6 miles. In the winter 3.5 miles of the CCC Pond area and
part of the Pinedale Pathway are groomed for cross- country skiing
opportunities.
