Pinedale is the smallest county seat in the state of Wyoming with an estimated current population of 1,658. In addition to being the local seat of government, Pinedale is headquarters for ranchers, outfitters and recreation in the northern end of the county. It's a typical western cattle town, complete with log buildings and false-front frame structures in the downtown area. Many of the homes in and around Pinedale are also constructed with native pine logs. Pinedale is located in western Wyoming approximately 78 miles south of Jackson Hole and 100 miles north of Rock Springs along Highway 191.
The town is nestled on the western flank of the Wind River Mountain Range. The 12-mile long Fremont Lake, just three miles from town, provides the town’s water and recreation opportunities, including sailing regattas and ice fishing derbies with towering peaks in the background.
The Museum of the Mountain Man on the hill above town offers a fascinating look into the lives of Sublette County’s early explorers.
Average summer temperatues range in the 70s and 80s with winter hovering around 15 degrees.
