If you look on Google Earth, you will see the nearest "town" is Baker, which is the mailing address for the park. I checked Baker on Wikipedia, the latest population is listed as 68. Perhaps good news for an aspiring young artist is the small artist colony there with around a half dozen resident artists in the area.

Not alot of fishing to be had. Very little around the park as it is small creeks and very fast water with not many holes. Creeks run for about 3 miles from park to town then go back underground,one of the few places in the world that do that. Ranch land around the park so not much easy acess. Runoff and irrigation needs will be the story. Silver creek resevior has good planters if the snowpack is enough to keep water in it,its about 5 miles from Baker.Google Snake valley festival to get a feel of the happenings in Baker.
