We always make a point to visit Jackson when going to Yellowstone. One of our stops is Aspen cemetery where my wife’s great-uncle is buried, “A Rugged Pioneer”. He was and early settler in the 1800’s. His ranch is now part of the Elk Reserve. Also participated in the posse to Cunningham Cabin to dispatch two horse thieves.
In addition to the scenic rafting on the Snake, we have also done white water rafting there. It is truly God’s country there.
Haven’t ever white water rafted the Snake, but we did in Alaska. The water temperature was just above freezing and poured over the edge of the raft. We had to wear wetsuits and I felt like I was packing sausage just trying to get mine on!:)
Enjoyed hearing about the great-uncle. What a gorgeous place to have a ranch! And being in a Posse! That’s as Old West as it gets! Thanks for sharing.
