It may seem odd that some of the best coldwater fishing in the country is found in this arid desert environment. But given the combination of tailwaters, man-made lakes and reservoirs, mountain lakes, streams and rivers, this is a trout fisherman's paradise. The entire Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area offers great boating, with Lake Flaming Gorge in particular known for its trophy fishing. There's no shortage of services in Flaming Gorge for the fisherman, boater, camper or others pursuing high country sports. Three full-service marinas offer ski boat rentals, fishing boats, houseboats and pontoon boat rentals, mooring and fuel. Other facilities within the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area include 18 US Forest Service campgrounds (four boat-in campgrounds) and nine paved boat ramps. Two main lodges service Flaming Gorge Country and offer restaurants, lodging, fishing guides, raft rentals, horseback rides and mountain bike rentals. These are located in the alpine areas and offer accessibility to many scenic trails, mountain lakes, and the tailwaters of the Green River and Lake Flaming Gorge.
