The North Fork Popo Agie River serves as part of the boundary between the Wind River Indian Reservation and Fremont County Wyoming.[3] The river's headwaters are at Lonesome Lake in the Wind River Range, and it flows eastward until its end near Lander, Wyoming when it joins the Middle Fork Popo Agie River.[4][2]
