Download or read book The Early Days in Jackson Hole written by Virginia Huidekoper and published by Grand Teton Association. This book was released on 2006-05-15 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pioneer photographer William Henry Jackson aimed his camera at the high peaks. Gently, he removed the cap covering the lens. Focused on the wet glass plate was the image of the Teton Mountains, a sight heretofore known only to a handful of Indians, trappers and explorers. The year: 1872. In the decades to follow many skilled photographers arrived in the Teton country to record the spectacular beauty of natural features and wildlife. A few chose for subjects the human activity, documenting the life of the sportsmen, early settlers, ranchers and dudes. They photographed the growing communities of Jackson Hole and the struggles to cope with the elements. Over the years, these pictures formed a colorful history of the country, and were to influence the establishment of the National elk Refuge and Grand Teton National Park. Recognizing the importance of these photographs, Virginia Huidekoper assembled a permanent file to be preserved in Teton County. She prepared this volume from the best pictures in the collection. A valuable reference book for historians and photographers, it is also an engrossing "family album" for the residents of Jackson Hole and its many visitors.
Download or read book Jackson Hole s Buried History written by Earle Layser and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-14 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inaccessibility and brutal winters delayed the European settlement of Jackson Hole. Uncompromisingly raw frontier into the 19th century, the first adult known to be buried in Jackson Hole wasn't until 1905; if you don't count the two 1892 Cunningham Cabin outlaws buried in one shallow grave. All the cemeteries in Jackson Hole can qualify as "pioneer cemeteries." Many of the earliest settlers were still around well into the 20th century. Over sixteen cemeteries and grave sites, which the author identifies and describes, are populated with those pioneers, along with a share of colorful frontier rabble, and notable folks from more recent times--artists, authors, biologists, conservationists, cowboys, dude ranchers, entrepreneurs, Olympian athletes, mountaineers, and more. The cemeteries and lone graves bear witness to the winds of change that have swept through Jackson Hole. In any case, an element of the local populace has always been proud to be as unruly and unconventional as its final resting places.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a century, the spectacular mountain range known as the Tetons has beckoned hikers, climbers, and the simply curious. In this second edition of a classic work, the processes that created this astonishing landscape are clearly described and richly illustrated. Using their 140 years combined experience, three geologists unlock the secrets of a land sculpted by fire, ice, and shifting tectonic plates. Their work is also a story of a revolution in scientific thinking, and the ways that revolution has revealed even more of the story's details. Accompanied by more than one hundred photographs and illustrations, the text is highly readable and scientifically accurate. It rewards the reader with the perspectives and discoveries of three geologists whose professional and personal lives are deeply intertwined with Jackson Hole and the Teton Range.
