Housing Information
Housing Information Things to know for your trip to the UW-NPS Research Station at the AMK Ranch What to Bring • Bedding - Sheets and blankets (or sleeping bag) and pillow. • Bath towel and toiletries. • Food – We do not have a cafeteria. We do have a refrigerator of free food that often has condiments, leftovers from seminars, and food other researchers left behind. To save you money and also help us reduce food waste, check the free fridge before shopping for food! See the Food & Dining section of this document for more information on nearby restaurants and grocery stores. • Wet/dry/cold/hot weather clothes. It can snow any month of the year, so be prepared for anything from hot, sunny days to rain or snow. Bring a variety of clothing layers for all kinds of weather. Bring a swimsuit if you’d like to swim in the lake. • Bring fishing gear if you like to fish. A Wyoming fishing license is required to fish in GTNP. Fish do need to be cleaned indoors rather than by the lake. • Bear Spray – This can be purchased at the general store. Depending on availability, we have a few that we may be able to lend out. Bear spray is not allowed in carry-on luggage, so if you are flying, either check your luggage or purchase it after you arrive. We will gladly accept donations of bear spray if you want to leave some for other researchers to use. Read about bear safety and know how to correctly use bear spray. You can also watch the bear safety demonstration held at the station during the 2016 season. -

The Wyoming Way
The Wyoming Way “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” -Martin Luther King Jr. Winning Tradition The 1943 NCAA Champion Wyoming Cowboys. owboy Basketball tradition is a rich one, including an NCAA National Championship team, a former coach who is a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, an All-American who is credited with one of the greatest innovations in C the history of the game and one of the most memorable players in NCAA history. In 1943, the University of Wyoming was led to the NCAA Championship by legendary coach Everett Shelton. Shelton’s 1943 Cowboy squad defeated Georgetown in the NCAA Championship game in Madison Square Garden. Two nights later, also in Madison Square Garden, the Cowboys earned the right to call themselves undisputed National Champions as they defeated that year’s NIT Champion, St. John’s University, in a game benefitting the Red Cross. In 1982, Coach Shelton’s memory was immortalized with the highest honor in basketball — induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. The ‘43 Cowboys featured All-American Kenny Sailors, who dazzled fans with an innovation that would change the way basketball would be played forever — the jump shot. Another Wyoming great that college basketball fans across the country still remember is Fennis Dembo. Dembo led the Pokes to the Sweet 16 of the 1987 NCAA Tournament and the next season graced the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine’s College Basketball Preview issue. -

Stories of Place Through Time: the Literary Heritage of Jackson Hole, Wyoming
Stories of Place through Time: The Literary Heritage of Jackson Hole, Wyoming © Earle Layser 2018 Some artists so completely capture the essence of a place and make it their own that to imagine the place or hold it in the mind’s eye of memory is to see it distilled through their art. ̶ Jack Turner, Travels in the Greater Yellowstone, 2009. The Power of Place Ringed by mountains and incomparable wild places, Jackson Hole has long inspired explorers, adventurers, writers, artists, and visionaries. Just as artists are driven to create art, writers have been moved to try to capture the essence or spirit of this place. Jackson Hole as a Literary Center Literary centers associated with large metropolitan areas primarily specialize in urban and societal related writings: comedy, novels, crime and mystery, fiction and science fiction. Conversely, characterized by a storied past and an extraordinary power of place, Jackson Hole’s literature predominately features “Western themes”—nature, conservation, wildlands, wildlife, public lands, mountain sports, Western history. The Wyoming Arts Council has called it, “writings informed by Nature.” While it has a relatively small resident population, Jackson Hole’s natural environs and history have always evoked passions to express one’s self through the arts. Local organizations, such as, Jackson Hole Writers, Grand Teton Association, the Center for the Arts, the Teton County Library, and the NPS/University of Wyoming’s Research Center at the AMK Ranch frequently sponsor acclaimed authors and speakers. The Wyoming Arts Council offers annual writing awards and fellowships, and Writer in Residence programs have in the past been conducted through The Murie Center and Teton Science School. -
