181 Acres on East Gros Ventre Butte Protected!
We are thrilled to announce that 181 acres of sweeping open space and prime wildlife habitat in the heart of Jackson Hole have been permanently protected - the first phase of an ambitious initiative to conserve more than 400 acres of land on East Gros Ventre Butte. We are incredibly grateful for the generous support of our committed donors, a neighbor that is the new landowner of the conservation property, and grant funding from the Wyoming Wildlife and Natural Resource Trust, The Conservation Fund's Wyoming Sage Grouse Conservation Campaign and the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole. The full press release is available here. This conservation success was covered in the Jackson Hole Daily, Jackson Hole Radio, and the Casper Star-Tribune.
