Dubois is a small town in west-central Wyoming located in the upper Wind River Valley at an elevation of about 7,000 feet (2,100 meters). The town lies within the Rocky Mountain region and is surrounded by the Wind River, Absaroka, and Owl Creek mountain ranges, giving it a rugged landscape of mountains, forests, sagebrush plains, and river valleys.
Dubois has a high-elevation continental climate that is often described as a high-desert mountain climate because it combines cool temperatures with relatively low precipitation. Winters are long and cold, with frequent snowfall and temperatures that can drop well below freezing, while summers are short, warm, and generally dry, with cool nights due to the altitude.
The area receives abundant sunshine throughout the year, has low humidity, and experiences large temperature differences between day and night. These climatic conditions, together with the surrounding mountain scenery, make Dubois a distinctive part of Wyoming's Rocky Mountain West.
Dubois has a rich history rooted in Native American culture, exploration, ranching, and frontier settlement. Long before European Americans arrived, the area was used seasonally by the Eastern Shoshone people, who hunted and traveled through the Wind River Valley. During the early nineteenth century, fur trappers and mountain men explored the region as part of the Rocky Mountain fur trade. Per
