Mountain Man Country

Boulder, Wyoming

The small community of Boulder is located at the junction of US Hwy 191 and 352 twelve miles south of Pinedale. It has an elevation is 7,016 feet and is not far from the famous Green River. Boulder has a population of approximately 30 people and is primarily a ranching community. Today the town has a general store, motel, restaurant, gas station, RV park, community center and volunteer fire department. Ranching is still important to the area, but outdoor recreation is also a factor. Boulder is right along the Continental Divide Snowmobile Trail. Those riding the Continental Divide Mountain Biking Trail will want to stop at Boulder for needed supplies as it is the last populated area with services for many miles until riders cross the Continental Divide of the Rocky Mountains over South Pass. The Boulder School was consolidated with the Pinedale schools in the mid-1960s and Boulder school children are bussed up to Pinedale every day. The old Boulder School became the Boulder Community Center in the mid-1970s. The Cowbells Harvest Ball and the Boulder Volunteer Fire DepartmentHouse are held here each year. The helpful Boulder Post Office is the friendliest post office you've ever experienced just a 1/2 block off US 191 on Wyoming Hwy 353.
