[Pages:1]about the area

Sublette County is located on the west side of the Continental Divide in western Wyoming, southeast of Jackson Hole, Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. This rural setting has approximately 6,000 residents and is over 80% public land.

The origins of the Green River, headwaters of the Colorado River, are located in northern Sublette County. Of the animals, deer and antelope outnumber the residents by 10 fold and are commonly seen year round. Elk, mule deer, antelope, wolves, moose, grizzly, black bear, big horn sheep and many other wildlife species, including a wide variety of birds, call Sublette County home. The heart of Sublette County, a high mountain valley, is set at 7,000 feet elevation. The rivers, streams, and 1,300 plus lakes along with the wildlife and towering mountains truly make Sublette County a unique destination.

The county is flanked on three sides by mountain ranges; the Wind River Range to the east, the Gros Ventre Range to the northwest, and the Wyoming Range to the west. Two wilderness areas are nestled in these mountain ranges, the Bridger Wilderness and the Gros Ventre Wilderness. The Bridger Wilderness boasts the highest mountain in Wyoming, Gannett Peak at 13,804 feet. These wilderness areas, along with the rest of the Bridger Teton National Forest offer nature at her pristine best. Remember when visiting them, "leave only footsteps, take only pictures."
