SHOSHONE RIVER

The 'Shoshone River' is a river in northern Wyoming, USA. Its headwaters are in Yellowstone National Park. It ends when it runs into the Big Horn River near Lovell, Wyoming. Cities it runs near or through are Cody, Powell, Byron, and Lovell. Near Cody, it runs through a volcanically active region of fumeroles known as Colter's Hell. This contributed to the river being named on old maps of Wyoming as the ''Stinking Water River''.
