Lookouts, Latrines, and Lodgepole Cabins Administrative Facilities of Wyoming’s Bridger-Teton National Forest, 1904-1955 Volume I: Historic Context Statement Forest Service Report No. BT-02-637 By Jim Bailey, Ph.D. Architectural Historian USDA Forest Service Intermountain Region Facilities Group 324 25th Street Ogden, UT 84401 801-625-5704 (Contact: Richa Wilson, Regional Architectural Historian, at above address and phone) PREFACE The Bridger-Teton National Forest is developing a historic facilities management plan in compliance with Section 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The work includes the identification and evaluation of each administrative building that is potentially eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Volume One of this report, which serves as the basis for evaluation, documents the forest’s history, each ranger district, and the forest’s architectural development. Volume Two contains information on resource types, evaluation methodology, and evaluation summaries. Much of the information for these two volumes is taken from "Privies, Pastures and Portables: Administrative Facilities of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, 1891- 1950, Report No. TY-01-1370" completed in December 2001 by Regional Architectural Historian Richa Wilson. Copies of this document will be provided to the State Historic Preservation Office in Cheyenne. Other depositories include the Bridger-Teton Supervisor’s Office in Jackson where it will also be placed on the forest’s web site, the Regional Office in Ogden, Utah, the Forest Service Heritage Center at Weber State University (Ogden), and the Forest Service History Office in Washington, DC.

  • Wild & Scenic River
    APPENDIX 2-E WILD & SCENIC RIVER ELIGIBILITY EVALUATION BRIDGER-TETON NATIONAL FOREST Background Under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act of 1968, Congress declared that there are certain rivers in the nation that possess outstandingly remarkable scenic, recreational, geologic, fish and wildlife, historic, and cultural values that should be preserved in a free-flowing condition. These rivers and their environments should be protected for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations. During forest plan revision, a comprehensive evaluation of the forest‘s rivers is required to identify those that have potential to be included in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. Forest planning must address rivers that meet one of these criteria: Are wholly or partially on National Forest System lands Were identified by Congress for further study Are in the Nationwide Rivers Inventory (NRI) Have been identified as a potential Wild and Scenic River by inventory conducted by the agency. The BTNF identified 31 river segments as potential Wild and Scenic Rivers during an inventory in 1991-1992; a number of additional eligible segments have been identified since and they have been added to the total list of __ river segments and __ miles in each of the following categories. In order to be considered eligible rivers must be essentially free flowing and have one or more outstandingly remarkable values. Rivers identified as eligible will be managed to maintain eligibility until suitability is determined. Rivers determined to be eligible were given a tentative classification as wild, scenic, or recreational according to their proximity to development and level of access.

  • 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.

  • 1 KECK PROPOSAL: Eocene Tectonic Evolution of the Teton-Absaroka
    KECK PROPOSAL: Eocene Tectonic Evolution of the Teton-Absaroka Ranges, Wyoming (Year 2) Project Leaders: John Craddock (Macalester College; [email protected]) and Dave Malone (Illinois State University; [email protected]) Host Institution: Macalester College, St. Paul, MN Project Dates: ~July 15-August 14, 2011 Student Prerequisites: Structural Geology, Sedimentology. Preamble: This project is an expansion of a 2010 Keck project that was funded at a reduced level (Craddock, 3 students); Malone and 4 students participated with separate funding. We completed or are currently working on three 2010 projects: 1. Structure, geochemistry and geochronology (U-Pb zircon) of carbonate pseudotachylite injection, White Mtn. (J. Geary, Macalester; note that this was not part of last year’s proposal but a new discovery in 2010 caused us to redirect our efforts), 2. Calcite twinning strains within the S. Fork detachment allochthon, northwest, WY (K. Kravitz, Smith; note because of a heavy snow pack in the Tetons this past summer, we chose a different structure to study), and 3. Provenance of heavy minerals and detrital zircon geochronology, Eocene Absaroka volcanics, northwest, WY (R. McGaughey, Carleton). We did not sample the footwall folds proposed in the previous proposal (under snow) and will focus on this project and mapping efforts of White Mountain and the 40 x 10 km S. Fork detachment area near Cody, WY, in part depending on the results (calcite strains, detrital zircons) of the 2010-11 effort. All seven students are working on the detrital zircon geochronology project, and two abstracts are accepted at the 2011 Denver GSA meeting. Overview: This proposal requests funding for 2 faculty to engage 6 students researching a variety of outstanding problems in the tectonic evolution of the Sevier-Laramide orogens as exposed in the Teton and Absaroka ranges in northwest Wyoming.

  • Campbell County History
    Campbell County History Early Expeditions: Information about the first European explorers and trappers to enter the Powder River Basin is very limited and confirmation on exact routes and locations will never be known. Some of the earliest expeditions believed to have been in the region include the Francois and Louis-Joseph Verendrye in 1743, Charles LaRaye in 1802, and Francois Antoine Laroque in 1805. Wyoming historian T. A. Larson believes the first American trapper in Northeast Wyoming was John Colter during the winter of 1807-1808. He returned three years later with Alexander Henry and approximately thirty other trappers. Ezekiel Williams and Jean Baptiste Champlain and a party of twenty-one trappers worked the Belle Fourche River in 1911. That same year saw Wilson Price Hunt and an expedition of men sent out by John Jacob Astor crossed the basin. The overland Astorians, as they became known, were headed for the Columbia River drainage and envisioned a series of fur trading posts stretching from the Great Lakes to the Pacific Ocean. The Powder River Basin was not prime trapping country, but was often traversed in order to get to the better streams to the west and also was used as a winter camp location by trappers. Robert Campbell and a party of Rocky Mountain Fur Company men spent the winter on Powder River in 1828. Father DeSmet, a Jesuit priest, traveled through the basin in 1851 and made reference to the “Gourd Buttes,” which are now known as the Pumpkin Buttes in Campbell County. A wealthy Irishman by the name of Sir George Gore and a large party of men and wagons entered the basin in 1855 on an extravagant hunting and fishing expedition.

  • Wyhuntfishmentoring Camp
    # WYHUNTFISH Mentoring Camp September 9 - 12, 2020 In partnership with the Safari Club International Foundation and the First Hunt Foundation, the Wyoming Game & Fish Department is hosting the 2020 #WYHUNTFISH Mentoring Camp with sponsorship from the Wyoming Outdoorsmen. This camp is a workshop for avid hunters interested in sharing their passion for hunting with others, increasing their mentoring skills and gaining a better understanding of the challenges of new hunters. The camp is designed for mentors of all experience levels, no previous mentoring experience is required. This camp is free to attend. Although there is no cost to the mentors, a $100 deposit is required to hold your spot after the invitation has been extended. That check is required to be postmarked within a week after notification, and will be returned before you depart from camp. The hosts and sponsors are making a significant investment in mentoring, and your participation is valued. The #WYHUNTFISH Mentoring Camp is hosted in conjunction with the Beyond B.O.W. — Hunting workshop for women learning to hunt. There is some overlap in curriculum and facilitated discussions with the hopes that mentors will share their experiences and knowledge with the hunters. Special mentors-only sessions on best practices and techniques for mentoring include Mentoring Strategies, Adult Learning Styles and Social Media and Photography. You will get mentoring experience, guiding a new hunter from the Beyond B.O.W. workshop on a simulated hunt with live fire. There will also be opportunity to learn more advanced and/or specialized skills like using the WGFD Hunt Planner, and, mentoring an actual antelope hunt with a novice hunter.

  • Forest Ranger at Wori(
    FOREST RANGER AT WORI( TilE 1961 \EARBOOK l T. s. IJEP \RTME T 0(· GRICULTU RE FOREST SER\ ICE I Tt:HlUl)ll. '1'\1110 HEGIO: FOREWORD The story of the Forest Ranger, key man in multiple-use management of the National Forests, is told in this booklet.Professionally trained, through college courses and the realities of work on the range and in the woods, he faces the challenge of making multiple use work. His is a tale of public service, hard work, long hours, but deep satisfaction. The Forest Ranger's work has been guided over the years by the principles of multiple use and sustained yield - "for the greatest good of the greatest number in the long run." With the enactment of the Multiple Use-Sustained Yield Act on June 12, 1960, he was given a mandate to guide him and broaden his understanding. It set forth the coordination requirenients needed in the management of land under his jurisdiction in the best long-time interest for the people of America. Multiple-use management provides for a system of zoning which recog- nizes that while there are great differences in the climate, vegetation, development and use of National Forest lands, itis possible to group similar areas for management purposes. In the first grouping are three zones based on climatic andvegetative similarities; the Crest Zone, the Intermediate Zone and theFoothill Zone. Superimposed on these, either within a single zone or in parts ofseveral are the Water and TravelInfluence Zones. Then, in a separate category are the Special Zones which include areas established byregulation for specific purposes; wilderness, scenic andarchaeological.
