Regional History The entire area is rich in American history as it related to the fur trade and mountain men. The first Rendezvous occurred in 1825, a gathering place for trappers to trade and sell furs. This event was held in Sublette County, which is named after William Sublette, who was a mountain man and trapper in the area from 1820 to 1840. The location of the Rendezvous moved each year. A total of six gatherings were held in this area between 1825 and 1840 near present day Daniel, Wyoming, a T35‐minute drive from the ranch. Each summer during the second weekend of July, the town of Pinedale celebrates with a parade and a reenactment of the Rendezvous with locals portraying mountain men and Native Americans.

  • Perry W. Jenkins – “Father of Sublette County”
    Perry W. Jenkins – “Father of Sublette County” An article prepared by John W. Shields1 Pursuant to Receipt of a Lola Homsher Endowment Fund Grant From the Wyoming State Historical Society Perry Wilson Jenkins – known almost universally as “P.W.” to his many friends and colleagues – earned the honorary title “Father of Sublette County” by introducing and championing the legislative bill that designated Sublette County as one of Wyoming’s twenty-three counties. This title also arose from the fact that he filed numerous water right applications and performed the surveys for a considerable number of irrigation ditches in Sublette County. P.W., who lived for fifty years at the very headwaters of the Green River, was very aware of the importance of the Green River Basin to Wyoming’s future economic growth. The Green is the largest and longest of the tributaries to the Colorado River. With an annual mean discharge of about 15 million acre-feet, the Colorado River (including its tributaries, of which the Green River is its longest) is not a giant among the world’s rivers but it traverses one of North America’s driest regions. For the past one hundred years, the River’s unmatched possibilities and opportunities for economic development and growth in this arid region have spurred myriad political contests among irrigators, businesses, civic boosters, politicians, tribes, ranchers, government officials, engineers and, more recently, environmental groups and recreational users, all seeking a voice in Colorado River allocation decisions.2 A root cause of these conflicts is the hydrological reality that although roughly 90 percent of the River’s flow originates in the upper basin states of Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming, much of the demand for the River’s water emanates from the lower basin states of Arizona, California, and Nevada.3 Perry Jenkins was well aware of these facts and was personally involved in several decades’ worth of those conflicts.

  • TECHNICALMEMORANDUM Basin Water Use Profile-Recreation
    Basin Water Use Profile - Recreation TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM SUBJECT: Green River Basin Plan II Basin Water Use Profile-Recreation DATE: April 2009 PREPARED BY: ERO Resources Corporation Introduction Water-based recreational uses in the Green River Basin include fishing, boating, skiing, and waterfowl hunting. Some of these activities, such as boating and fishing, are clearly water based, while others such as hunting depend on water to support waterfowl habitat. Streams and lakes also provide an indirect amenity that enhances the recreation experience for activities like camping, hiking, other recreation facilities located near open water. Although golf is not a water-dependent recreation activity, a reliable supply of water is needed for irrigation and maintenance. Most water-based recreation activities do not directly result in the consumptive use of water, with the exception of park and golf course irrigation. A. Approach The objective of this evaluation is to identify the types and locations of water-based recreation in the Green River Basin as part of the spectrum of economic and leisure activities that rely on the presence or use of water. The water requirements to meet non-consumptive recreational needs are not readily quantifiable; therefore, this assessment focuses on identifying import recreation uses in the Green River Basin, where they occur, and the value and potential conflict with other water uses. Information in this report was obtained from state and federal land management agencies, existing documentation, and other sources. Public agency data sources included the Wyoming Game and Fish Department (WGFD), the Wyoming Department of State Parks and Cultural Resources, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), U.S.

    Live Water Fall/Winter Newsletter LIVE WATER IN THE NEWS “Easements Conserve 1,837 Acres” Excerpt: Green River Valley Land Trust Summer/Fall 2006 Newsletter Standing on the edge of a butte on the Bar Cross Ranch affords a beautiful view -- of the canyons and spires of the Wind River Range to the north and east and the verdant irrigated meadows and bottomland to the south. In fact, it is this very site with this incredible view that we chose as the location for our Annual Donor Appreciation Picnic this year. But, this is just one of about six sites we considered, as this beautiful 11,000+-acre property has a lot of special spots. A working cattle ranch, the Bar Cross has some unique attributes. From the GRVLT perspective, 1,837 acres are conserved after the 2005 easement donation by owner and GRVLT Advisory Board member, John Blatt. The property is near to several other existing easements, making it part of a neighborhood of more than 6,000 easement-protected acres. In addition, the Bar Cross has significant scenic, wildlife, and wildlife habitat values. The Ranch can be seen from Wyoming State Highway 352, Sublette County Road 149, and State of Wyoming and BLM lands to the west. The New Fork River and various irrigation ditches flow through the property and support healthy populations of trout and other fish. The importance of the property is enhanced by the fact that the wet agricultural meadows and wetlands connect the riparian corridor of the New Fork River to Willow Creek and to the sage covered foothills of the Wind River Front.
