Dubois
Dubois is one of America's emerging year-round outdoor recreation areas and prime vacation spots. Visitors will delight in its history, scenery, and various outdoor opportunities. Dubois is often called the Gateway to Yellowstone as it is located a short drive from the Park's South entrance.
The town of Dubois is located along one of the old trapper routes to the Jackson Hole country, which today's traveler can follow by modern highways 26 and 287. It is in the heart of some of the state's best hunting and fishing country, little changed since frontier times.
Commercial airlines fly into Riverton, Casper and Jackson and provide connections with major airlines in Salt Lake, Denver and Billings. Dubois area motels offer shuttle services from the Riverton and Jackson airports where there are car rentals available also. Dubois has a new CAA approved, blacktop airport for private planes up to the DC-3 class. Powder River Bus lines connects Shoshone to Casper and Billings.
A small town in big country, Dubois, Wyoming, is about an hour's drive from Jackson (to the west) and Riverton (to the east). This little gem of a town is bordered by geography unarguably second to none.
Nearby trailheads and geographic features have cast their spell over visitors and locals alike. No traveler could mistake the reason, either: location.
Set in the upper Wind River valley, the town is framed by Butch Cassidy's haunting Dubois Badlands to the east, the stark, stunning Absaroka Range to the north, and the majestic Wind River Range to the south.
A stroll down the main street, most of it still appointed with boardwalks, yields a taste of Wyoming's Old West flavor. Log buildings, saloons, quaint shops, and even tipis welcome the travel-weary visitor.
