Crowheart sits along U.S. 26/287 between Dubois and Riverton, where broad sage flats give way to the Wind River and the dramatic profile of Crowheart Butte. The story of Chief Washakie and Big Robber lingers in local lore, while today’s rhythm centers on open skies, working ranches, and direct access to big-country recreation. Anglers and hikers use Crowheart as a low-key base for river miles, backroad exploring, and trailheads leading into the vast Shoshone National Forest. As part of Fremont County and adjacent to the Wind River Reservation, the community reflects the living heritage of the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho; cultural events and education programs are highlighted by the Eastern Shoshone Tribe.
Families appreciate small-town schooling options. Depending on location, students often attend Dubois K–12 in Fremont County School District #2 or Fort Washakie School. Everyday essentials are close at hand in Lander and other nearby hubs, with weekend adventures ranging from wildlife watching to limestone canyons at Sinks Canyon State Park. Housing spans classic homesteads, irrigated acreage, and off-the-beaten-path retreats, prized for dark-night stargazing and elbow room.
