Double Eagle Ranch STAR VALLEY, WYOMING Double Eagle Ranch STAR VALLEY, WYOMING Hunting | Ranching | Fly Fishing | Conservation Double Eagle Ranch STAR VALLEY, WYOMING Play video of the ranch Introduction: The Double Eagle Ranch represents one of the most attractive opportunities to own a remarkable hunting and angling property on renowned trout water with direct private national forest access in the Rocky Mountain West. Situated in the heart of Star Valley, the ranch encompasses 245 secluded acres consisting of open pastures and mature stands of trees all straddling nearly ¾ mile of the Salt River. This, along with the adjoining national forest access, makes the ranch a true recreational paradise as an owner can catch trout and hunt elk only steps from the home. Extraordinary care and attention to detail were taken during the design and construction of the lodge style home of 7,620 sqft. Given the spectacular outdoor setting, the home is complimented by significant and comfortable outdoor living space. Other attributes include a charming guest cabin with a wraparound deck, a spacious 4-bay garage with workshop and a 1,300 sqft caretaker’s quarters. The ranch is offered turn-key, including high-end furnishings, Tate Jarry, Associate Broker ranch equipment and vehicles. Alex Maher, Owner/Broker John Merritt, Associate Broker Toll Free: 866.734.6100 www.LiveWaterProperties.com Location: The 245-acre Double Eagle Ranch is located in Star Valley, which is an hour south of Jackson Hole, Wyoming. This picturesque, mountainous valley was settled in the late 19th century and was proclaimed the “Star of All Valleys” by its settlers for its natural beauty and landscape. At 5,600 to 7,000 feet in elevation, the valley is approximately 14 miles wide by 50 miles long. Throughout the early part of the 20th century, agriculture became the focal point of the local economy with an emphasis on dairy farms. Due to the exceptional fishing and hunting in the area, Star Valley has become highly sought- after recreational real estate. A 7,200-foot-long airstrip that can accommodate private planes is located south of the ranch in Afton, Wyoming, while commercial air services and today’s modern conveniences are found in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and Idaho Falls, Idaho. Salt Lake City is a 3.5-hour drive south of the ranch’s front gate. Star Valley’s premium location is due in large part to its proximity to Jackson Hole and Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. • Afton, Wyoming 15 Miles • Alpine Junction 15 Miles • Jackson Hole 55 Miles • Grand Teton National Park 70 Miles • Yellowstone National Park 110 Miles • Driggs, Idaho 70 Miles • Idaho Falls 90 Miles • Salt Lake City 220 Miles www.LiveWaterProperties.com Acreage: The ranch encompasses 245.03 deeded acres in one contiguous tract of land bisected only by the flow of the Salt River on its northerly course through the ranch. Approximately 53 acres are located west of the river at the mouth of Hemmert Canyon, which immediately adjoins the Caribou-Targhee National Forest and BLM public lands. This area of the ranch is mostly hillside ground with dense stands of spruce and fir trees with stands of aspen and low lying level terrain along the river’s edge. This natural terrain provides a welcomed afternoon shade in the summer while fishing the river or sitting on the patio. Access to this area of the ranch is granted via a private foot-horse and ATV bridge that spans the Salt River near the Double Eagle Ranch main home and the private boat launch site. All of the remaining acreage lies east of the Salt River and has nearly level terrain, slightly sloping to the north and west at an elevation of 5,800 feet. Approximately 76.9 acres are platted in the Double Eagle Ranch, Third Filing residential subdivision. There are a total of eight lots within the subdivision averaging 10 acres each, with the main home located on the largest tract of 34.7 acres. The remaining 7 lots have direct frontage on the Salt River, shared access to the national forest and dedicated building envelopes. All of these lots are included in this offer and have no improvements, giving an incoming owner the opportunity to further improve the ranch or abandon the plat for conservation easement value. www.LiveWaterProperties.com Acreage: (Continued) A private oxbow created on the Salt, designed by Stan Jarrell, and approved by state authorities, brings live water into a unique pond on the west side of the home. Large mature cottonwoods grace this area of the ranch providing a perfect and private setting for the main home’s location. The remaining 114 acres are located within the town limits of Thayne and zoned Agriculture-Residential under the town of Thayne Zoning Ordinance. This was a recent purchase by the owner to protect the open feel of the ranch as well as to protect against the threat of future development. Ample water rights provide sufficient irrigation on this portion of the ranch, which is mainly used for grazing livestock and growing pasture grasses. A small stream with spring influences meanders through the western portion of this section of ground providing forage and cover for migratory waterfowl. This could easily be enhanced to provide additional habitat for these birds, adding a supplementary recreational component. www.LiveWaterProperties.com Improvements: The Double Eagle Ranch improvements are truly special and are well sited on the river’s edge in the privacy of tall trees. Scenes of the Salt River, Hemmert Canyon and the Wyoming Mountain Range make each room’s view distinct and memorable. The sound of flowing water can be heard from practically every room. Great care and attention were used when designing and building the improvements, including the main home, four-stall garage with caretaker’s quarters and guest cabins. Don Briggs, prominent designer of handcrafted log structures, worked closely with landscape architects and talented interior designers in executing this remarkable creation, which is reminiscent of a world-class hunting lodge. The main home is 7,620 sqft in size with 4,521 sqft of living area on the ground floor and 3,099 sqft of living area on the upper level. Handcrafted from heavy hand-milled log timbers from the Bitterroot Valley of Montana, and an abundance of locally quarried stone throughout, this home truly captures the Western lifestyle. www.LiveWaterProperties.com Improvements (Continued): The main floor is graced at its formal entryway by a central two-story gallery with an open staircase handcrafted from reclaimed mine timbers. The great room, located just past the entryway, is the centerpiece of the home and main gathering spot with massive stone and timber fireplace and large floor-to-ceiling windows. The large private master bedroom suite is ideally located on the western side of the great room and within earshot of the flowing Salt River. A gourmet kitchen with oversized island, custom cabinetry, two pantries and top-of-line appliances are located adjacent to the formal dining room and sunroom with a breakfast area. Rounding out the main floor is a private office, thoughtfully designed, with river views, as well as a classic bar and mudroom. Additionally, on the ground level is the 3,800 sqft of outdoor living space, ideal for events and gatherings of any size. Including an outdoor grilling facility, custom cowboy fire pit and kettle that is recessed into the stone patio, large fireplace and ample seating, this living area is the perfect blend of fresh air and comfort where all can enjoy the long summer evenings on the ranch. www.LiveWaterProperties.com www.LiveWaterProperties.com www.LiveWaterProperties.com Improvements (Continued): The upper floor is equally well planned with four bedroom and bathroom suites, each individually themed, offering a unique and distinct design. There is also a fully equipped media room with sound proof blackout curtains and a drop- down movie screen. Open space to the main entry and a reading balcony overlooking the main room are seamless accents to the private bedrooms on this floor. The general design elements and materials include radiant floor heating, custom fixtures and cabinetry, quarter-sawn oak floors, custom designed bath and shower environments, custom designed kitchen and bath tile, and ample light fixtures. The 4-bay garage accommodates vehicles, boats, ATVs and other ranch essentials while also providing 1,500 sqft of guest quarters upstairs. A charming restored guest home has a flawless studio layout with lofted ceilings, a spacious bedroom and bathroom with a shower and jetted tub. Sited in a private treed setting, the guest house enjoys a full wrap-around porch offering 360-degree views. Note: This offering is being sold completely furnished. Additionally, the ranch vehicles and equipment are also included with the sale.

  • A History of the Rise of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Wyoming
    A History of the Rise of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Wyoming Sources: “Life of Archibald Gardner”, Delila Gardner Hughes, Alpine Publishing, 2nd Edition, 1970. Anyone with historical information about the rise of the Church is invited to share that information by sending it to this website and it will be added. Thanks. Hal Pierce Star Valley During 1877 Moses Thatcher and Bishop William B. Preston had explored this valley and were impressed by its beauty and potential. There was evidence that Shoshone Indians had previously been there but were not in the area at that time. On 29 August 1878 Elder Brigham Young, Jr. dedicated it as a gathering place for the Saints. In 1880 the city of Afton became the first settling place and the valley was then named Star Valley because it was a star among valleys. The location was then praised in an article in the Logan Utah newspaper during September 1880. Archibald Gardner visited the valley and asked Bishop C. D. Cazier for advice and explained he was looking for land and a good place to set up mill sites. Although he was happily settled in Jordan Utah he needed a place to avoid being arrested as a polygamist. The Church issued a Manifesto against polygamy in 1890 which eliminated the threat of his being arrested. For a time Archibald boarded with Catherine Carpenter in a room that was exposed to the outside elements (garret) and without sufficient bedding. He suffered from exposure to the weather and never fully recovered from it.

  • Caribou National Forest Monitoring And
    United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service Intermountain Region Caribou- Targhee National Forest 1 Caribou Monitoring Report: 2002-2003 Caribou - Targhee National Forest Caribou Monitoring and Evaluation Report Abstract The Caribou and Targhee National Forests were officially combined in the spring of 2000. The Caribou zone published an Analysis of the Management Situation in 1999 that identified several Needs for Change. The AMS determined that many of the Caribou’s ecological communities are “functioning but at risk” and the 1985 LRMP management was not adequate to improve these conditions. As a result, the Caribou Plan was revised. On February 19, 2003, Regional Forester Jack Troyer approved the Caribou Revised Forest Plan. Forest managers began implementing the Caribou RFP on May 12, 2003. The monitoring required during the 2003 has not been entirely completed or compiled and will not be reported until 2004. This report touches on most of the functional areas of the Caribou but highlights areas where we have made extensive strides towards enhancing the human and natural environment. At the end of the field season the Forest expects to have completed fish distribution surveys on all perennials streams. These surveys show which streams are “strongholds” for the sensitive Yellowstone and Bonneville cutthroat trout. The Caribou RFP includes new livestock utilization standards designed to enable the Forest to allow grazing while maintaining or improving stream conditions. For the past two years, the Montpelier District has been working with the research division of the Forest Service to develop effective methods for restoring tall forb communities. The Selenium Area-Wide Advisory Committee continues to work on reducing selenium risk in new mining operations and developing methods to clean up areas currently contaminated.

  • Executive Summary
    Snake/Salt River Basin Water Plan Update Groundwater Study Level 1 (2011 - 2014) Available Groundwater Determination Technical Memorandum No. 7 Executive Summary Karl G. Taboga Prepared for the Wyoming Water Development Commission June 2014 INTRODUCTION Between 2001 and 2006 the Wyoming Water Development Commission (WWDC) completed individual water plans for each of Wyoming’s seven major river basins. Technical Memorandum S of the previous Snake/Salt River Basin Water Plan (Sunrise Engineering and others, 2003) contains a groundwater resource investigation that thoroughly examines the basin’s resources and usage. The 2014 Available Groundwater Determination presented in this report updates and expands the previous technical memorandum with a new compilation of information and represents the most current assessment of the groundwater resources of the Snake/Salt River Basin. This technical memorandum has the following objectives: • Identify the major (most widely used) aquifers in the Snake/Salt River Basin. • Define the three-dimensional extent of the aquifers. • Describe the physical characteristics, water chemistry, and potential contaminants of the aquifers and confining (hydrogeologic) units. • Estimate the quantity of water in the aquifers. • Describe the aquifer recharge areas. • Estimate aquifer recharge rates. • Estimate the “safe yield” potential of the aquifers and describe implications of hydrologically connected groundwater and surface water. • Describe and evaluate existing groundwater studies and models. • Identify future groundwater development opportunities to satisfy projected agricultural, municipal, and industrial demands. SNAKE/SALT RIVER BASIN DESCRIPTION This report examines groundwater resources that underlie the Snake/Salt River drainage basin in Wyoming as well as areas in Idaho that are tributary to the Wyoming part of this basin.

  • 2016 Star Valley Economic and Demographic Review
    2016 STAR VALLEY ECONOMIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC REVIEW 2016 Authors Summary Star Valley has recovered from the sharp market downturn in 2009 when the hard reality of the Great Recession swept though the local economy like a grim reaper. The local economy realized a very slow and marginal recovery until early 2014 when hints of improved economic growth began to emerge. The Star Valley economic recovery continues through today: area population is growing again, unemployment is reaching historic lows at 4.5%, liquidity appears to be increasing, local inflation is tolerable, jobs are available, and real estate prices are increasing. Overall, these indicate a fairly robust and bright local economy. However, there are significant headwinds developing. The clouds are generally macro issues originating outside the Star Valley economy. The State of Wyoming is now feeling the real impacts of the low energy prices and the “war on coal” causing reduced state income and reduced employment as mining activity and rig counts have fallen. The Wyoming state income from mineral activity is directly correlated to local and county governmental jobs and activity given that the state is a primary funding source. Government, which has been a growing sector, is now realizing a reduction as revenues decline. The Federal Reserve continues to communicate a desire to raise interest rates even though European and Asian central banks are now experimenting with negative interest rates. Today, the U.S. economy is showing very marginal growth, with what the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) recently called the “Weakest Recovery Since ’49.” U.S. gross domestic product grew at a seasonally and inflation-adjusted annual rate of only 1.2% in the second quarter, 2016.

  • 2017 Star Valley Economic and Demographic Review
    2017 STAR VALLEY ECONOMIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC REVIEW 2017 Authors Summary The Star Valley economic picture is optimistic. Star Valley is experiencing growing population, unemployment is reaching toward historic lows at 3.3%, liquidity within the market is expanding, local inflation is low, jobs are available, and real estate prices are increasing. Overall, these factors come together to indicate a robust and promising local economy. However, there are also significant long-term issues developing. These challenges are macro issues largely originating outside the Star Valley economy. The State of Wyoming is feeling the negative impacts of ongoing structural changes in the energy market and has seen reduced, but stabilizing, severance based state income. Many Wyoming communities have been hit harder by the current relatively lower energy prices in comparison to Star Valley. However, Star Valley governments and schools, a large employment sector, are very dependent on general state revenues. The Wyoming state revenue stream, dependent heavily on mineral activity, is directly correlated to local and county governmental jobs. Government, which has been the largest growing sector in recent years, may see a reduction in size as revenues decline. The Federal Reserve has taken actions to raise interest rates, with four 0.25% increases in the · Fed Funds rate beginning December 2015. Further, the Federal Reserve is now providing guidance that it will begin to slowly reduce their $4.5 billion balance sheet, which was expanded by $3.5 billion to deal with the impacts of the Great Recession . Today, the u.S. economy is showing sustained but relatively low marginal growth at 2.1% for pt quarter 2017.

    WYOMING PLANT SPECIES OF CONCERN ON CARIBOU-TARGHEE NATIONAL FOREST: 2007 Survey Results Teton and Lincoln counties, Wyoming Prepared for Caribou-Targhee National Forest By Michael Mancuso and Bonnie Heidel Wyoming Natural Diversity Database, Laramie, WY University of Wyoming Department 3381, 1000 East University Avenue Laramie, WY 82071 FS Agreement No. 06-CS-11041563-097 March 2008 ABSTRACT In 2007, the Caribou-Targhee NF contracted the Wyoming Natural Diversity Database (WYNDD) to survey for the sensitive plant species Androsace chamaejasme var. carinata (sweet- flowered rock jasmine) and Astragalus paysonii (Payson’s milkvetch). The one previously known occurrence of Androsace chamaejasme var. carinata on the Caribou-Targhee NF at Taylor Mountain was not relocated, nor was the species found in seven other target areas having potential habitat. Astragalus paysonii was found to be extant and with more plants than previously reported at the Cabin Creek occurrence. It was confirmed to be extirpated at the Station Creek Campground occurrence. During surveys for Androsace , four new occurrences of Lesquerella carinata var. carinata (keeled bladderpod) and one new occurrence of Astragalus shultziorum (Shultz’s milkvetch) were discovered. In addition, the historical Lesquerella multiceps (Wasatch bladderpod) occurrence at Ferry Peak was relocated. These are all plant species of concern in Wyoming. In addition to field survey results, a review of collections at the Rocky Mountain Herbarium (RM) led to several occurrences of Lesquerella carinata var. carinata and Lesquerella paysonii (Payson’s bladderpod) being updated in the WYNDD database . Conservation needs for Androsace chamaejasme var. carinata , Astragalus paysonii , and the three Lesquerella species were identified during the project.
