- best months
The Kemmerer Ranger District is a Forest Service unit in Wyoming, sitting right next to the town of Kemmerer, about a tenth of a mile away. It is a fishing destination, and it is not a place you need to reserve a spot for. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Kemmerer show July highs around 83°F with lows near 43°F, while winter brings highs around 31°F and regular snow days from December through February. Several other outdoor spots lie within a short drive. The Emigrant Trail and Antelop Trail are both hikes about 4 miles away, and the Twin Creek climbing area is roughly 9 miles off.
