Is anyone familiar with the place? Are there mountains and trout fishing nearby?

Lots of park and federal lands so I would think they have websites that might be helpful. It is beautiful country so I doubt you would ever regret a visit I can say that for sure.

Plenty of places close, the wind river comes from Boysen reservoir and after it leaves the Indian reservation it turns to the bighorn river, you can fish the wind river with a license from the reservation. And there is plenty of mountains close.

It's not far from Cody. Would be a crime to be that close and not go to the firearms museum. Catch a meal or a drink at the Erma. Rodeo every night (or they used to before covid)
Gun Nut X2 but be prepared to be a bit overwhelmed by the collection. Absolutely incredible!

I lived in Thermop for 4 years in the late 80's. I floated the river 2, 3, sometimes even 4 times a week.
There is "TONS" of moss in the river.!!!!!! Its almost impossible to fish lures. Guys that fish flies do OK. We just floated nite crawlers down for our best results. You might want to check the regs to see if that is still legal. They wanted to turn that into a trophy area for some time.
When the wardens were shocking the river they said there was about 1,500 fish per mile of river.
Boyson is good as well, and below the dam is too. If water is coming over the dam the walleye fishing is real good.
Brookie fishing in the Big Horns used to be awesome but too many people up there now days

I've been to the Cody museum twice. It is overwhelming. Just too much stuff. There is a darn good steakhouse downtown on the north side of the street.

If your talking about the "Rib and Chop" it's gone now Don't remember but the wait staff wrote their name upside down and backwards on a big sheet of wax paper that was the table cloth. When they cleared the table they just grabbed the 4 corners and carried the whole works away. Darn good eating. I can't imagine it gone unless it burned.
