    Shell Lake is a lake worth visiting. Shell Lake is located in the Bighorn Mountains.

There's so much to do here at Shell Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Upper Paint Rock Lake Campground is a great site for that.
This lake is so wonderful. Going for
 
   a hike on the Edelman Trail is always a delightful adventure; get yourself into a kayak and hit Paintrock Creek. You just can't picture the amount of outdoors cool things the Bighorn Mountains has to offer. There's some flowing water nearby, Porcupine Creek is a stream you can visit during your stay, and there are some brilliant whitewater spots on Tensleep Creek. Shell Lake is mostly a pretty arid place; of all the months in a year April is the one with the most  
               snow; February is the month with the least moisture.
