Bridger-Teton National Forest

The Wyoming Game and Fish Department runs 22 elk feedgrounds around the state. The fate of two of those depends on a National Environmental Policy Act review, which is currently in a public comment period.

The Jackson area is home to a population of relatively genetically pure native cutthroat trout. In many other parts of the West, cutthroat trout have hybridized with rainbow trout. But a set of irrigation ditches off of Spread Creek have created a barrier for the Jackson area trout on their migrations. The fish get swept into irrigation ditches and eventually become stranded.

Despite recent moisture, public lands across Wyoming are still experiencing moderate to severe drought conditions.

The National Weather Service has indicated that hot and dry conditions will persist in the coming weeks, which increases the potential for fire activity across the Teton Interagency Fire area, hence elevating the fire danger rating to very high for Grand Teton National Park, Bridger-Teton National Forest, and the National Elk Refuge.
