Prepare for the activity
Allow about 1 hour to travel from Jackson, Wyoming. From Jackson, take Rt 191/189 South. At the circle at Hoback Junction (approx. 11 miles out of Jackson), go left toward Pinedale. You will travel through the beautiful Hoback Canyon. When you come out of the Canyon, you will go through the tiny village of Bondurant. Look for the Post Office and Branding Iron Café on the left, around mile marker 139. Use this as a landmark. Go 2-3 miles further, and look for a brown sign that says North Fork Fisherman’s Cr on the right side of the road. It is a left turn onto a dirt/gravel road. (Directly across Hwy 191 from our turn is a pull off and sign that says Hoback Ranches.) Turn left onto North Fork Fishermans Creek Road, and enter the Bridger-Teton National Forest. Follow this about 3.5+ miles (it will seem longer) and look for a pull in area on the left. This is the trailhead. You will cross two cattle guards on your way and it is a parking area with a forestry sign for Fisherman Lake.
