The Unforgettable Wild Wyoming Canyon Adventure! - $2,500

A 2-Day Guided Trip for 2 Anglers

Embark on a truly unique and rare fly fishing expedition with our "Unforgettable Wild Wyoming Canyon Adventure." This trip is designed for the serious angler and outdoor enthusiast seeking an unparalleled experience in one of Wyoming's most beautiful and secluded canyons. Over two full days, you'll fish pristine waters brimming with healthy rainbow and brown trout.

Your Adventure Includes:

  • 2 Full Days of Fishing: Experience action-packed dry fly fishing with custom-tied flies, leaders, and tippet provided by us.

  • Gourmet Meals: Enjoy delicious packed lunches and cold drinks each day, a hearty steak dinner with a campfire on the first evening, and a full breakfast on the second morning.

  • Comfortable Accommodations: Rest and recharge for your next day of fishing in a beautiful, clean, and self-contained camper with comfortable beds, a private bathroom, and a shower.

Restrictions & Important Information:

  • Limited Availability: This exclusive trip is only offered twice a year, from mid-June to the end of July.

  • Transportation: The road to the campsite is rugged. We highly recommend and can provide transportation from a secure parking area near Buffalo, Wyoming, right off I-80, to save your vehicle from wear and tear.

  • Physical Requirements: This is a physically demanding trip. You must be able to hike a steep, rocky path into and out of the canyon. The hike takes approximately 30-45 minutes down and up to an hour out. Expect to wade and cross the river, as there is no riverside trail. The effort is absolutely worth the reward!

  • Equipment: Please bring your own rod and reel. We will provide a new leader, tippet, and flies tailored for the trip.

Let’s get out there and wrangle some trout!
