    Not being a particular outdoors kind of person I was actually quite taken by Seminoe Reservoir. Of…read morecourse I went with my cousin in his boat which made it all the better! Nothing simple with him! At the actual state park during the tourist season which is summer, there is a little store at the south end of the reservoir where you can get groceries and things. Seminoe Reservoir is a series of reservoirs in this area and the most southern reservoir. North of this reservoir is Pathfinder Reservoir and Alcova Reservoir. Alcova Reservoir is right near Alcova so there are more goods and services offered there than at Seminoe. I don't know if there are any services offered at Pathfinder Reservoir. I was never there. You can boat all over the open part of the lake and then go up into the canyon right up to the dam to get a good look at it. Very nice scenery but a bit too hot and arid for my tastes. I was raised in the mountians so I am not used to the desert as much. We had a great night out on the boat with my cousin and his dogs. Dogs are always fun aren't they? When we left the next day the boat ramp was a bit steep to get the boat back on the trailer and people were waiting on us to get their boats out on the water. Probably loading a boat in the first place is a two man job. I was there with my cousin but I had no idea what I was doing when it came to loading a boat so really he was loading the boat himself. Despite that little tiff and note of aggravation coming from my cousin the trip all in all was quite fun for this housefly!

    Historic Mormon Trail Site [Alcova WY]…read more While enjoying the beautiful nature driving across Wyoming on State Highway 220 we found this historic site, a Mormon Trail Site located near Devil's Gate. We were approached by a friendly welcoming volunteer... she proceeded to share a little history of this place. In 1856 two emigrant companies (a handcart and a wagon business) of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints crossed the plains trying to reach Utah. Weather was harsh and the cold wind and snow made it too dangerous to proceed to their destination in Salt Lake City which was still about 330 miles. The emigrants sheltered here while waiting to be rescued. Exhaustion, exposure and lack of food had weakened the emigrants and many had died before rescue efforts began. The docent was very informative. Throughout this historic site, there were monuments, memorials, and sculptures commemorating the rescue. There were also handcarts visitors can push to experience. There is a trail leading to Devil's Gate that we would've loved to hike but didn't have time. She said people visit the cove as a place of reverence, remembrance, and gratitude and during summer months Latter-day Saints participate in trek reenactments. To request a trek will require reservations. Learned about Mormon pioneers here. Park is free to visit. Review #3474
