  • WPLI Resolution
    Matters from Staff Agenda Item # 17 Board of County Commissioners ‐ Staff Report Meeting Date: 11/13/2018 Presenter: Alyssa Watkins Submitting Dept: Administration Subject: Consideration of Approval of WPLI Resolution Statement / Purpose: Consideration of a resolution proclaiming conservation principles for US Forest Service Lands in Teton County as a final recommendation of the Wyoming Public Lands Initiative (WPLI) process. Background / Description (Pros & Cons): In 2015, the Wyoming County Commissioners Association (WCCA) established the Wyoming Public Lands Initiative (WPLI) to develop a proposed management recommendation for the Wilderness Study Areas (WSAs) in Wyoming, and where possible, pursue other public land management issues and opportunities affecting Wyoming’s landscape. In 2016, Teton County elected to participate in the WPLI process and appointed a 21‐person Advisory Committee to consider the Shoal Creek and Palisades WSAs. Committee meetings were facilitated by the Ruckelshaus Institute (a division of the University of Wyoming’s Haub School of Environment and Natural Resources). Ultimately the Committee submitted a number of proposals, at varying times, to the BCC for consideration. Although none of the formal proposals submitted by the Teton County WPLI Committee were advanced by the Board of County Commissioners, the Board did formally move to recognize the common ground established in each of the Committee’s original three proposals as presented on August 20, 2018. The related motion stated that the Board chose to recognize as a resolution or as part of its WPLI recommendation, that all members of the WPLI advisory committee unanimously agree that within the Teton County public lands, protection of wildlife is a priority and that there would be no new roads, no new timber harvest except where necessary to support healthy forest initiatives, no new mineral extraction excepting gravel, no oil and gas exploration or development.

Jackson Hole was recognized as an outdoor paradise by the native Americans that first explored the area thousands of years before the first white mountain men stumbled upon the valley. These lucky first inhabitants were here to hunt, fish, trap and explore the rugged terrain and enjoy the abundance of natural resources. As the early white explorers trapped, hunted and mapped the region, it didn’t take long before word got out and tourism in Jackson Hole was born. Urbanites from the eastern cities made their way to this remote corner of northwest Wyoming to enjoy the impressive vistas and bounty of fish and game in the name of sport. These travelers needed guides to the area and the first trappers stepped in to fill the niche. Over time dude ranches were built to house and feed the guests in addition to roads, trails and passes through the mountains. With time newer outdoor pursuits were being realized including rafting, climbing and skiing. Today Jackson Hole is home to two of the world’s most famous national parks, world class skiing, hiking, fishing, climbing, horseback riding, snowmobiling and wildlife viewing all in a place that has been carefully protected allowing guests today to enjoy the abundance experienced by the earliest explorers.

  • Grand Targhee Resort to Replace Blackfoot Chairlift (Alta, WY – April
    Contact: Jennie White Marketing & Social Media Grand Targhee Resort (o): 307-353-2300 x 1328 [email protected] Grand Targhee Resort to Replace Blackfoot Chairlift (Alta, WY – April 13, 2016) Grand Targhee Resort is excited to announce that the Blackfoot chairlift will be replaced with a new Doppelmayr fixed grip quad chairlift this summer. The Blackfoot chairlift has been an iconic piece of Grand Targhee Resort’s history since 1974, when it was installed. This lift accesses over 500 acres and 1,200 vertical feet of terrain. The lone double chair is due for retirement and with this, brings a new chapter in Grand Targhee’s history. The old Blackfoot chair, manufactured by Riblet, was built in 1974 and had a 960 passenger per hour uphill capacity. The total ride time was about 12 minutes. Moving forward, Blackfoot will be replaced by a Doppelmayr fixed grip quad with comfort bar and foot rests that can haul 1,800 guests per hour. The total ride time will decrease to 7 minutes. In the event of a power outage the new lift will be able to run off of diesel power. Construction on the lift will begin immediately with the goal of having the new Blackfoot lift ready for opening day of the 2016/17 winter season. “The entire resort team is excited to replace and upgrade the Blackfoot chairlift,” stated marketing & sales director, Ken Rider. He goes on to say, “The resort ownership and entire team is committed to the guest experience and reinvesting in the resort with ongoing improvements.

  • Grand Teton National Park Youngest Range in the Rockies
    GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK YOUNGEST RANGE IN THE ROCKIES the town of Moran. Others recognized that dudes winter better than cows and began operating dude ranches. The JY and the Bar BC were established in 1908 and 1912, respectively. By the 1920s, dude ranch- ing made significant contributions to the valley’s economy. At this time some local residents real- ized that scenery and wildlife (especially elk) were valuable resources to be conserved rather than exploited. Evolution of a Dream The birth of present-day Grand Teton National Park involved controversy and a struggle that lasted several decades. Animosity toward expanding governmental control and a perceived loss of individual freedoms fueled anti-park senti- ments in Jackson Hole that nearly derailed estab- lishment of the park. By contrast, Yellowstone National Park benefited from an expedient and near universal agreement for its creation in 1872. The world's first national park took only two years from idea to reality; however Grand Teton National Park evolved through a burdensome process requiring three separate governmental Mt. Moran.

    Pierce and Colman: Submerged Shorelines of Jackson Lake, Wyoming: Do They Exist and SUBMERGED SHORELINES OF JACKSON LAKE, WYOMING: DO THEY EXIST AND DEFINE POSTGLACIAL DEFORMATION ON THE TETON FAULT Kenneth L. Pierce u.s. Geolo:.:Jical. Survey Denver, co Steven M. Colman u.s. Geological Survey Woods Hole, M A Obj::ctives The Teton fault is one of the moot active normal faults in the world, as attested by the precipitous high front of the Teton Range. After deglaciation of northern Jackson Hole arout 15,000 years ago (Parter and others, 1983), offset on the Teton fault eouthwest of Jackoon Lake has tntaled 19-24 m (60-80 feet) (Gilbert and others, 1983). In less than the last 9 million years, offset on the Teton fault has tntaled from 7,500 to 9,000 meters (Love and Reed, 1971). Figure 1 shows how downdropping on the Teton fault results in tilting of Jacks::>n HoJe towards the fault. Submerged paJ.eoohorel:ines of Jackoon Lake may record this downdropping and tilt because the level of Jackoon Lake is controlled by both the furtui.tous ,{X)Sition of the Jake ootlet and the immediate downstream course of the Snake River (Figure 1). The ootlet of Jackson Lake is 12 km east of the fault and from there the Snake River has a very low gradient to a bedrock threshold 6 km further east. Thus the level of Jackson Lake is controlled by the bed of the river east of the hinge line of tiJ.ting (Figure 1). The postglacial history of movement on the Teton fault may thus be recorded by paJ.eoohorelines submerged OOJ.ow the level of the pre-dam Jake.
