Wind River nearby Nearby Live Water: Bisecting the valley just below the ranch, the Wind River offers some of the best and most varied fishing in the country. The Upper Wind River is a free-flowing natural river dominated by cutthroat trout. As the river meanders down the valley, rainbow and brown trout populations increase, giving anglers the chance to land all three species in one day. Public fishing access points up and down the river offer some of the best fishing near the town of Dubois. A tract of BLM land directly adjacent to Homestead Draw Ranch at the NNW corner provides a particularly convenient access to the Wind River, and the many tributaries of the Wind River also offer excellent fishing. For example, a trail from the ranch house leads directly into spectacular Warm Springs Canyon and to quiet, pristine fishing spots on Warm Springs Creek. In addition to the amazing fisheries close to the property, there are endless angling destinations and opportunities within a short drive from the ranch. These include the Buffalo Fork, the Snake River, and an abundance of streams and rivers in Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. There are 626 lakes and reservoirs and 2,057 miles of streams that comprise the fishing waters of the Wind River Country. These include pristine mountain streams rushing beneath towering granite spires, crystal clear lakes, and wide rivers twisting through stunning canyons. House, Garage and barn Tack room Improvements Nestled in a sheltered site just below the forest is the main home of 1,944sqft, with 3-bedrooms, 2.5-baths, large decks, and mature landscaping. Being of newer construction, the home is highly energy efficient and features both forced-air heat and an auxiliary wood-burning heat stove. The master bedroom is of an en-suite design, enabling ample privacy for the owners, even while having a full complement of guests. The home has a 768sqft detached garage, oversized to allow for equipment storage or for workshop or craft facilities. Nearby is a 1,024sqft horse barn with indoor and outdoor tack-up areas, a sealed tack room, an attached paddock, indoor and outdoor water supply, a round corral, and a large fenced pasture. Along the spring creek is a 688sqft, 2-bedroom guest cabin overlooking the hay field, and an additional large fenced pasture with a detached loafing shed for horses. All of the improvements were constructed between 2002 and 2006. There is one private water well each for the main house and the guest cabin. Water rights to the spring belong exclusively to the owners of the ranch. The current owners irrigate ±10 acres of land at the base of the property to raise certified weed-free horse hay and for horse pasture. The irrigation water is pumped from the Wind River under permit from the Wyoming State Engineer’s Office. If desired, the irrigated acreage may be roughly doubled to the size of the area irrigated historically.

  • 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.

  • Exploring Grand Teton National Park
    05 542850 Ch05.qxd 1/26/04 9:25 AM Page 107 5 Exploring Grand Teton National Park Although Grand Teton National Park is much smaller than Yel- lowstone, there is much more to it than just its peaks, a dozen of which climb to elevations greater than 12,000 feet. The park’s size— 54 miles long, from north to south—allows visitors to get a good look at the highlights in a day or two. But you’d be missing a great deal: the beautiful views from its trails, an exciting float on the Snake River, the watersports paradise that is Jackson Lake. Whether your trip is half a day or 2 weeks, the park’s proximity to the town of Jackson allows for an interesting trip that combines the outdoors with the urbane. You can descend Grand Teton and be living it up at the Million Dollar Cowboy Bar or dining in a fine restaurant that evening. The next day, you can return to the peace of the park without much effort at all. 1 Essentials ACCESS/ENTRY POINTS Grand Teton National Park runs along a north-south axis, bordered on the west by the omnipresent Teton Range. Teton Park Road, the primary thoroughfare, skirts along the lakes at the mountains’ base. From the north, you can enter the park from Yellowstone National Park, which is linked to Grand Teton by the John D. Rockefeller Jr. Memorial Parkway (U.S. Hwy. 89/191/287), an 8-mile stretch of highway, along which you might see wildlife through the trees, some still bare and black- ened from the 1988 fires.
