Jeramie Prine's Tip of the Week
The Wind River region is now experiencing spring runoff. The river is going to get big and off color as temperatures rise. Closest accesses to town and upriver of town will have the clearest water right now. Time to start hitting the lakes as ice comes off to avoid spring runoff.
