Out here in Wyoming, we tend to find our own fun. If you love winter – and let’s face it, if you live here, you probably love winter – chances are that you’ve got a pair of ice skates sitting in a closet, just waiting to be dusted off and put to use! Make a plan to try some “wild ice” skating at Fremont Lake this season, and you’ll remember the joys of skating on your town’s lakes as a kid. Here, you can work on your skating skills while enjoying the most stunning backdrop you can possibly imagine. If you’re a newbie, come alone with us as we show you why this is the best outdoor place to go ice skating in Wyoming.
