Lake Alice Packtrip Details

A Day In Camp

The Lake Alice Pack trip sets out from Tri Basin Divide trailhead. We saddle the horses and ride out about 2.5 hours to camp where you’ll sleep for the duration of your trip. Each morning we get started around 8 am when your guides get the horses ready and we all discuss plans over breakfast. Your itinerary on this trip is up to you! Day trip opportunities include fly fishing, hiking, wildlife viewing on horseback or just hanging out at camp. Species of wildlife likely to be seen on the Lake Alice trip include elk, mule deer, black bear, and Shiras moose. Lake Alice is remarkable in that it is home to the only known pure lake strain of naturally reproducing Bonneville cutthroat trout. Fish from the shore or get out on the lake on a boat or a tube. If you’re a serious fly-fisher this is the place to complete your Wyoming Cutt Slam!
