Fawn Lake and Blacktail Ponds present a somewhat different story. Both are
home to larger than average brook trout, and both are not good places to
take kids or beginning anglers, since each presents a fairly serious danger.
The former is a hike of 5 strenuous miles into the Gallatin Mountains, an
area literally infested with grizzly bears. The last time I went to the lake
my partner and I saw three grizzlies (and several wolves, elk, and bison),
for example, the last of which rose out of the sage no more than 50 yards
away. This is not a hike that should be attempted alone or without bear
spray. Blacktail Ponds --really one pond with two pools connected by

been there--IJ

There's a Blacktail Ponds in Grand Teton too. I caught some nice fish by there
this year.
