Greybull, where you are sure to find something for everyone in the family.

Enough to see around Greybull, you are sure to find something for everyone in the family. Greybull is located in North Central Wyoming and is surrounded by forests, mountains and rivers. Nearby Big Horn National Forest is 80 miles long and 30 miles wide and includes 14 picnic areas, two visitor centers, over 1500 miles of trails, three scenic byways and two recreation lakes. Just a short distance east on Highway 14 to Shell Falls, is a waterfall that cascades over 3 billion-year-old granite at some 3,600 gallons per second. Scenic views of the Big Horn Mountains are world-class, and walking trails allow for breathtaking views of the falls and the canyon. Colorful, rock formations are exposed in Devil's Kitchen, located five miles from Greybull. The formations are part of the Cloverly Formation, a 125 million to 11 million year-old sequence of sediments, containing important dinosaur remains. A walking or hiking tour will reveal fascinating and picturesque 'Badland' spires and weathered hills. Be sure to stop at the Medicine Lodge State Archeological Site, located about 40 miles from Greybull. It features petroglyphs and pictographs on cliff walls. Don't miss the Red Gulch Dinosaur Track site. This site is a record of the original Jurassic Park and features three-toed dinosaur tracks across a rock bed. In town, visit the free Greybull Museum to learn about pioneer history and fossil collections from around the local dinosaur dig area. Spend a day amidst thousands of tourists and visit Cody; but escape back to the quiet Greybull KOA at the end of the day. A golf course is in the area.

Cor and Maria Bijvank have camped all over the world. Born and raised in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, the couple has traveled all over Europe, across the United States, into Canada, Alaska and Mexico. Early in 2005, they purchased their KOA campground, and as of now, this KOA is completely remodeled and redone. New bathrooms and laundry facilities are done and all of the sites now have level concrete pads and patio's.

Cor and Maria run their campground differently than most in the U.S. "We greet campers with an old-fashioned European hospitality. When they arrive, we go to them so they don't have to come to us in the office," said Cor. The couple encourages people to relax, set up camp after arrival, and then check in later that day. This provides time to get to know their visitor's and help make each person comfortable. "We treat everyone like a friend," added Cor. "We prefer a friendly atmosphere."

Due to the geologically interesting area, the campground evokes the attention of groups of travelers. Besides the regular travelers, Cor and Maria welcome colleges and universities studying the land and provide them with a base camp as the students delve into their studies. Often times the groups will stay seven to nine days as they get a first-hand glimpse of the inner workings of the Earth and the Big Horn Mountains.

Cor speaks four different languages and Cor and Maria pride themselves on their ability to utilize their internationally oriented perspectives. "Sometimes people want to speak in their native language and as international travelers, they sometimes need help with things. "I can help with that," says Cor. "We have lived in a lot of places and seen a lot of things; we think we know what people like and dislike."

The campground's originality is what sets it apart from many other campgrounds. It is a fun place to stop, be it for a night or a week, and they are there to add a European flair to an American tradition.

Available fish in the Bighorn Mountains

Brook trout (Saivelinus Fontinalis)
This small-headed fish gradually changes color from dark green on top to a white belly. The males have splashes of bright red on their bellies. The light spots on a dark background are joined by some red or pink spots with blue halos on the lower sides. Striking black-and-white borders are found on the lower fins and tail. This fish is mainly seen in waters at or above an elevation of 10,000 feet, though may be found at lower-elevations as well, they are usually the only fish found in the high mountain country.
Brook trout are easy to catch. Fish for them with light or ultralight gear. The most frequently used bait is a piece of worm attached to a size 12 to 14 hook. The relative ease of catching, combined with the majestic mountain scenery where they live, makes brook-trout fishing an entertaining activity for families with young anglers. Brook trout spawn in the fall and fishing is good year-round.

Brown trout (Salmo Trutta)
This brown-colored fish has olive hues on top, with yellow sides and a belly with black and red or maroon spots. In contrast to the cutthroat and rainbow trout, there are few spots on the tail.
The brown trout has a hard-to-catch reputation which makes the pursuit a challenge. There are many ways to attempt hooking, though if the "big ones" are your choice, the hours of twilight or darkness will offer the best chances. Live nightcrawlers are effective earlier in the season while using grasshoppers as bait in the late fall can provoke strikes that are almost violent. Anglers seeking to increase the challenge of fishing for brown trout prefer artificial flies and spinners. Brown trout prefer spawning in the fast water of streams in fall. This provides for some excellent fishing at a very colorful time of year.

Cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus Clarki)
These fish display a heavier concentration of black spots in the tail area. The black spots are either minimal or nonexistent on the head. There is a red or orange slash located under the jaw. This is the only trout native to Wyoming. There are five subspecies of cutthroat trout in Wyoming and many more methods of catching them. Fly fishing seems to be the most popular, though not the only method. All of the subspecies of cutthroat spawn in the early spring. Depending on which of these subspecies is present, spawning may begin as early as March and continue into July.

Rainbow trout (Oncncorhynchus Mykiss)
The rainbow trout is native only to the rivers and lakes of North America, west of the Rocky Mountains, but it's well-known as a hard-fighting game fish and tasty meal. Rainbow trout, also called redband trout, are gorgeous fish, with coloring and patterns that vary widely depending on habitat, age, and spawning condition. They are torpedo-shaped and generally blue-green or yellow-green in color with a pink streak along their sides, white underbelly, and small black spots on their back and fins. They prefer cool, clear rivers, streams, and lakes. Rainbow trout survive on insects, crustaceans, and small fish.

Red Gulch Dinosaur Tracksite Photo Red Gulch Dinosaur Tracksite The tracks are preserved in limestone in an area that was once a beach that fringed the Sundance Sea, a vast inland body of water. The individual footprints are aligned in dozens of trackways that can be traced for lengths of up to 12 meters across the bedrock surface. The tracks have been dated at 167 million years old and most range in length from 2 inches (4cm) to 10 inches (25 cm). The largest of these dinosaurs would probably have stood less than 7 feet (2.3 m) in height. Scientists do not know which dinosaur species made the tracks, since dinosaur fossils from this timeframe are so rare. Research continues in an effort to understand more about these fascinating trace fossils.
