The Green Mountains are not just rich in the forests and sage grasslands that gives them their name-- the surrounding area is rich in minerals.

Wild Horse Point is a developed overlook picnic area for watching for the mustangs and for enjoying the spectacular vistas of the area.

The rolling hills of this 1,347 acre park are covered with pine forests, deciduous woodlands, and prairie grasslands. Deer, prairie dogs, and other wildlife are abundant. Proclaimed September 24, 1906 as the nation's first national monument by President Theodore Roosevelt.

Dugway Campground
Besides the sound of the river meandering north, this is a very peaceful campground. There is flyfishing for trout here. There is also a take out for the North Platte River, for canoers or kayakers. A control crest was put in below the dugway so boaters are advised to start their trips upstream.
