JACKSON HOLE MOU NTAIN RESORT On “Tedx Talk: Todd on Ted” LETTER Glorifying Ted I am writing concerning the article about Ted Turner. There is no doubt that Turner is a controversial figure for a number of reasons. I believe the article inaccurately glorifies the man as an environmentalist who cares about bison. Back in 2010, eighty Yellowstone bison were captured and quarantined to test for the disease brucellosis – a disease that many wildlife such as elk and coyotes carry. The bison have for years been unfairly targeted as carriers of brucellosis because they graze on public lands where Montana ranchers also choose to graze their cattle in the summer. Every spring these wild bison are hazed away from their birthing and grazing lands by various government agencies back into Yellowstone National Park. When the eighty wild bison were captured three years ago, it was determined that they should be temporarily kept on Ted Turner’s ranch while research could be conducted. In exchange for caring for these bison for a period of five years, Turner requested that he be allowed to keep 75 percent of their offspring. This request was granted by Montana Governor Brian Schweitzer. It has been argued that the bison from Yellowstone that Turner now possesses belong to the public. I would argue that they are no one’s property – or they shouldn’t be. They don’t belong to the public, they aren’t the property of Yellowstone or the United States Government. The bison don’t belong to ANYONE. They were here long before us, and they belong to no man. If Ted Turner really cared about bison and re-wilding the land, he would do something to stop the annual hazing of Yellowstone’s bison. There is no doubt that he has the money and power to do so. And yet he overlooks the plight of the last free-roaming herd of bison in America, of which there are only about 4,000 left. I believe that Turner needs to return the wild bison to their rightful place and relinquish his request to keep their offspring as payment and accept monetary payment instead – but God knows the man doesn’t need any more money. The fact that Turner would rather keep the offspring of the wild bison should be seen as a testament to the value of this native species. – Lindsay Steinmann Send your comments to editor@jhweekly.com On Rock! By Kevin J. Pusey, Jr. 4 June 19 - 25, 2013 Glissading The Spoon ■ Very nice interview and story, Jake. I have sensed over the years he invested in Montana that there was more to Turner than the outlandish stuff he gets known for. Guess I gotta buy the book now to confirm it. ■ This is all old news. Decades old. Turner is a mystery only to those who weren’t paying attention since the ’80s. ■ Intriguing interview! “Last Stand” is one of the best books I’ve read, certainly due to Todd’s story-telling skills and Ted’s infamous character. The GREEN side of Ted has never been told as Todd has done. And if there are any “Ted” stories left to share, I hope Todd will be the one to take us there. Thank you Jake! ■ What did Todd tell that has never been told about Ted’s GREEN side, or “told as Todd has done?” Todd used more exclamation points? ■ Todd appears thin-skinned. Writers tend to be. TV’s talking heads are pretty much the same. Radio personalities. A smart Todd would have a smart comeback to comments he found challenging. ■ You can bet that Ted Turner would have posted a more interesting reply to the comments above. ■ A smart Todd would have just ignored all the shit from the Todd-haters here. I mean really, WTF. “Nothing new” in Todd’s book? Does any book on anything always contain completely or exclusively new material? ■ As with Todd assuming some posters are angry, you assume some are “Todd-haters” without any evidence. None said the book was bad, or that Todd was bad, or that the book had no value for all readers. And none said that books covering old material had no value. You are too quick to judge or too quick to respond before thinking and reading carefully. Just like Todd. The column was titled “Todd on Ted: A Turner we never knew” not “Todd on Ted: A Turner from Todd’s ‘perspective.’” I think the comments reflect that dichotomy. ■ One can guess that Todd’s book on Ted bends the narrative in the same direction as his columns, and previous book, “Science Under Siege: The Politicians’ War On Nature and Truth.” The evidence presented here from Jake seems to reinforce that idea. An environmental journalist for 25 years is unlikely to wander far from the institution. Todd has an agenda, and Ted is a vehicle for furthering it. The book may be about Ted, but I’ll bet there’s a lot of Todd in there. For many readers, that’s just dandy. You’re one of them. On “Them on Us: Texas church plants to JH” ■ We got the church out of LA in the old Wilson School House. The new Bible Thunpers are welcome. I hope they knock on each others doors. And why, exactly, are they coming here? Jake? ■ Equality State? Women are to blame for making ‘poor’ choices when it comes to education and employment. How many sign up to be engineers? They will soon, if not already, out rank men in education and potential. The pay gap exists because of choices they make. ■ I can tell some are pleased they are coming, while others are not. I would think any community would be glad more people are coming to join them in a positive light. As one said, thousands come and go all the time in the beautiful valley. Welcome them! ■ Is this couple associated with standing along Broadway and the Town Square holding signs of aborted fetuses ? It’s no wonder people are discussing their motives for moving here. Log in at www.jhweekly.com to join the discussion. Making the decision to store my skis for the spring off-season was an easy one this year with the Teton approaches melting quickly. However, snow mountaineering conditions are in prime shape right now. Many on-snow climbing accidents here are a result of poor technique and skills in self-arresting with an ice axe. Take a snow school with a guide service to learn, or have an experienced friend teach you how to stop yourself when sliding or falling on snow. Especially know how to stop yourself if you are glissading out of control. Last week, I climbed the east-facing snow couloir (II, 4.0) on Disappointment Peak (11,618 feet), affectionately known as “The Spoon.” Leaving the Lupine Meadows lot, we hiked the seemingly endless switchbacks to Amphitheater Lake in the dark. After booting up, crampons were used to ascend the steep snow couloir while we watched a beautiful sunrise behind us. By the time we topped out onto the big snowfield to the summit, the snow was soft enough to kick steps without the crampons. After a quick look around from the summit, I started thinking about all the snow climbs to be had right now, and how The Spoon was my very first climb in the Tetons centuries ago. Glissading down to the top of The Spoon was quick and fun. Opting not to belay each other down the steep snow, we then decided to keep glissading down the couloir. Things got real serious, but after a couple slides and rolls to self-arrest, while the mounds of wet snow slowly slid past, I got more comfortable. It actually became crazy fun back to the lake. For gear: stiff Vibram boots, crampons, ice axe, 50-meter rope, helmets, harnesses, and one snow picket. For beta: “A Climber’s Guide to The Teton Range” by Ortenburger and Jackson. Rock On! l www.JHweekly.com By Jake Nichols TETON VALLEY NEWS At first, I wanted to jump all over Teton School District Superintendent Monte Woolstenhulme’s decision to obliterate the school’s Redskin mascot. It smacked of the type of overly-PC decisionmaking that appeases a relatively few squeaky wheels to the dismay of the rest of us sensible majority. Today’s politically correct thinking states: If one person claims to be offended by something, a thousand should kowtow. The majority doesn’t Monte Woolstenhulme exist. Everyone should be made happy, as if that were even possible. Woolstenhulme didn’t do himself any favors, either, when he told the Teton Valley News, “I’m not asking for board approval, it’s a decision I’m making.” Here we have one guy, a renegade and probable outsider, hell-bent on imposing his will and erasing more than a century of tradition. Oh yeah, this Woolstenhulme was headed for a “Diss.” And I’m hardly in the minority. The commentary following the article is decidedly against Woolstenhulme’s decision and an online petition called “Save the Redskins” has garnered 628 signatures so far. “This is NOT Monte Woolstenhulme’s personal kingdom that he can rule and reign with his hypersensitive, self-imagined whims,” the petition reads. I so wanted to join the mob and find a sharp stick. I’m the last guy on earth you would call politically correct or sensitive to the hurtful practice of name-calling. Well, Woolstenhulme is not an “outsider.” His family has been in Teton Valley for at least five generations. And we all know what would happen if the school super vetted this with his board or invited the public-at-large to weigh in. Five million differing opinions and endless costly impact studies would have a pending decision stuck in committee for as long as Wyoming’s Teton County Comp Plan has been bandied about. I don’t have an issue with HOW Woolstenhulme pulled the plug (quick like a Band-Aid) or even why. This isn’t about political correctness gone mad. This isn’t about an acknowledgment that a nationwide campaign is underway insisting we all become a little more touchy-feely when it comes to mascot names (the NFL’s Washington Redskins is one of a few sports organizations that recently received a “friendly” note from Congress). This is about removing a derogatory reference to a race of people that is no different than using the N-word for African-Americans. In the right context, calling out a local tribal nation by name – like what Florida State does with its Seminoles – with their permission, might fly. Even the blanket term “Indians” is less offensive than the R-word. Tradition doesn’t excuse it. It’s not associated guilt for wiping out American Indians by sword and smallpox, shoving the survivors onto barren wasteland reservations. It’s simply wrong, and it has to be corrected. More ropers, less dopers Several arguments exist for legalizing marijuana. It is not as harmful to society as alcohol. Polls show a majority of Americans are willing to give it a try. And, finally, it makes sound financial sense. None of these arguments, however, should give cause for lighting up just yet. The local initiative to ask Mayor Mark Barron where he stands on the possibility of legalizing pot in Jackson, Wyo., is gaining some traction. Next to Boulder, Colo., Jackson is one of the most logical battlegrounds for an ordinance allowing a joint or two tucked behind the ear of a Hole hippie. Christie Christian has been the driving force behind the movement to get the mayor to break ranks with the big bad feds and give a thumbs-down to their tyranny against local stoners. “Safe in the arms of God” by John MacArthur TOKEOFTHETOWN.COM Cowboys vs. Indians, someone call the cavalry Sure, a baked society might be a little less violent than a drunk society, but by that kind of reasoning we should allow motorists to drive 20 miles an hour over the speed limit because, well, it’s not as dangerous as driving 35 miles over. While we’re at it, a more useful petition would be to make Teton County dry, not high. Alcohol contributes to at least 90 percent of the stupid criminal stories I read in the police blotter every week. Dreams of a utopian community are only as far away as Carrie Nation’s trusty axe. Besides, puffing on weed will make an already underproductive country even less motivated. No one is lazier than Americans, except, maybe, baked Americans. And, please, save the argument that “Colorado has pot and we’re losing tourism and tax dollars to our neighboring state.” Like my mom was fond of saying, “If Colorado told you to jump off a bridge, would you?” - A book that can bring great comfort to anyone who asks, “How can I know my baby is in heaven?” Right to Life of Teton County RTLofTetonCounty.org P.O.

While in Tel Aviv, dancing with the Batsheva Ensemble, Andrea Miller stopped one day on the beach and watched surfers cut through the water, balancing, bending in a complicated dance in the waves. They had a special, almost perfect understanding of the world, she thought, as they took each wave, unchangeable and an unstable force, and created their own movement, tricks and choreography. “That’s what I think the creative process should be,” she said. It should have momentum. People should be able to carve out something special that is their own. When Miller formed her own dance company a year later, she named it Gallim, which in Hebrew means wave. This month, Miller and her company are in Jackson, where they will teach classes, but most importantly retreat from the normal hustle of urban life in New York where the company is based, to work on a brand new piece that Dancers’ Workshop has co-commissioned. 6 June 19 - 25, 2013 l www.JHweekly.com The inspiration In January 2011, Babs Case went to a performance of a new and up-and-coming company at a YMCA in New York. Case, the artistic director for Dancers’ Workshop, has seen a lot of dance in her lifetime. What she saw in that YMCA surprised her. The modern dance company combined athleticism with art, creating a visceral experience. What she witnessed was Gallim, the fledgling company started in 2007 by Miller. “I was very, very moved by Andrea’s work and her thought process and the way she integrates her dancers into the work and the way they are a part of the process,” Case said. “I just strongly connected with them.” Case took a risk. She brought the modern company to Jackson in February 2012, unsure how even Wyoming’s most arts-supporting community would receive them. They were raw and unlike anything Case had brought to Jackson before. The audiences at the performances were small, but enthusiastic. The open rehearsals were packed. This summer, Case is taking the relationship with Gallim a step further. Dancers’ Workshop is co-commissioning a piece for Gallim. Co-commissioning means Dancers’ Workshop is providing rehearsal space, housing and financial support for a new piece Gallim likely will perform across the globe, taking with them the Dancers’ Workshop name and its association with Jackson, Wyo. Commissioning a piece has long been a dream of Case’s for Dancers’ Workshop. “It’s another level of us supporting artists,” she said. For three weeks, Gallim will live in Jackson and work at Dancers’ Workshop. The company will focus on a piece named “Fold Here,” which is inspired by Raymond Carver’s short story “Cathedral.” In the story, a man’s wife invites over her blind friend. The friend makes the husband uncomfortable and finally he turns on the television. When an image of a cathe- dral appears on the screen, the man attempts to describe it for the blind guest but discovers he’s at a loss for words. munity to witness and understand the entire creative process behind creating a dance piece, from putting the steps in place to watching it on stage. “For every piece that she makes, Andrea creThe early stages ates what we call a new world,” Hodges said. “This piece is a little about trying to underEach piece exists unto itself and most are stand things, especially things that have some evening length, meaning you will see just sort of formula or form, like the way one piece at a performance. happiness should look,” Miller The company is distinguished Gallim Dance said. by its athletic and virtuosic It’s a piece that investiin Residence movements, which are visgates perception and how ceral and emotional, at Dancers’ Workshop that can be shaken and Hodges said.

In recent years, Dancers’ Workshop has brought in internationally known companies like Alonzo King Lines Ballet and Diavolo. Three years ago, Case scored the ultimate coup. The New York City Ballet, one of the most famous dance companies in the world, agreed to something unprecedented, sending a group of principal dancers on the road to perform, teach classes and offer open rehearsals. This summer will be the third year the company is coming to Jackson. A Gallim dancer rehearses in the company’s Brooklyn studio. 8 June 19 - 25, 2013 l www.JHweekly.com But Case’s vision for Dancers’ Workshop isn’t complete. “We’re only scratching the surface of what could be an incredible place for long-term residencies,” she said. Co-commissioning a piece is a step toward building those relationships and building national recognition for Dancers’ Workshop as an organization that supports artists and other dance companies, said Meleta Buckstaff, administrative and marketing assistant with Dancers’ Workshop. “This puts us on a bigger platform than we’ve been on before,” she said. While the time that a company like Gallim spends in Jackson during a residency benefits its dancers, it also benefits Jackson’s dancers, from young kids to the professional members of Contemporary Dance Wyoming, the modern dance company based at Dancers’ Workshop. Buckstaff, a member of Contemporary Dance Wyoming, said Gillam’s previous residency “freed us.” We took classes from Gallim dancers and observed the company’s creative process in rehearsals. It was inspiring, she said. It also exposed the community and people who wouldn’t necessarily seek out dance, to different art forms. People who had never been interested in dance came to check out the free, open rehearsals, where they saw modern dance for the first time, or heard a director explain the creative process, Case said. Exposing people to the process and different forms of art develops people who value art. Even if they don’t always like it, they see the meaning in it. “That’s what we’re in the business of: creating meaning in people’s lives,” Case said. The residency provides important opportunities for students at Dancers’ Workshop to work with and observe professional dancers. It could be years before the impact of hosting a company like Gallim, and cocommissioning a piece, can be measured. “You don’t know which kids’ lives are changing,” Buckstaff said. “You don’t know until they grow up and become their own artist.” In recent years, Dancers’ Workshop has seen more students pursuing dance after they leave Jackson. KT Fuchs recently was accepted as a transfer student to the prestigious Alvin Ailey School and the Tisch School of the Arts in New York City. Other former students are dancing in Central America and Africa and teaching dance in other states. “Those are the kinds of things that measure the success of what you are doing,” Case said. “You are building art for lives. You are developing artists.” ThemOnUs By Jake Nichols Suicide by car wreck? “Life on the farm is kinda laid back …” Suicide by vehicular homicide is the stuff of urban myth. It’s nearly impossible to wrap one’s head around the idea that a distraught individual would choose to end his or her life by crashing deliberately into another motorist. It’s too horrifying to even think about, but does it really happen? Data is nearly nonexistent because so many traffic fatalities are simply chalked up as accidents unless there is proof that one of the motorists involved was intending to kill themselves. Estimates peg the vehicular fatalities that are suicides anywhere from 1.6 to 5 percent of all methods of suicide. An Australian study found 14.8 percent of suicide attempts were planned vehicular “accidents.” The unthinkable happened in Fremont County last week when a Wisconsin couple – Chase Schweitzer and his fiancee Andrea Esser – were killed in a head-on collision with another vehicle on Highway 789 between Lander and Hudson. Emergency responders first noted the letters “DNR” written in red marker on both couple’s wrists. There also was a note encouraging anyone who found them to donate their organs and bury them together. The Riverton woman who was struck by the couple, Michelle Mones-Caines, was treated at Lander Regional Hospital and released. A follow-up story posted by County10.com claims Schweitzer, 18, and his girlfriend Esser, 17, had just been engaged. They were reported missing from their home state. Esser’s mother was recently convicted of credit card fraud of more than $100,000 and was turned in by her husband. The family business went under and the couple is in the process of a divorce. Former JH Weekly scribe Ben Bombard parlayed his journalistic experience with this paper into a new chapter as an urban farmer. Catalyst Magazine published a short piece by Bombard inviting fellow Salt Lake residents to check out his Wasatch Community Urban Garden and Farm on Windsor Street this Saturday. The self-guided tour features: “Small livestock, permaculture gardens, intensive and vertical gardening techniques, community and youth gardens, mushroom growing, restaurant gardens, sustainability features like rainwater catchment, solar ovens, beehives, food preservation, and cob and straw bale structures.” Join us on the Town Square SATURDAY MORNINGS 8:00am to Noon July 6 - September 21 Ben Bernanke’s last ride? Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke already said he would not be making the trip to Jackson Hole this August for the annual symposium where his Friday morning speech has been one of the most anticipated state-of-the-economy forecasts of the year. Bernanke will give a similar type of glimpse into upcoming Fed policy with a scheduled press conference on Wednesday. Leading into the speech, MarketWatch’s Greg Robb authored a piece that mentioned last summer’s meeting of central bankers in Jackson Hole. “At one of the recent Federal Reserve retreats in Jackson Hole, the central bankers and their guests were treated to an exhibition by a leading horse whisperer. Maybe Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke was taking notes,” Robb wrote to match his headline: “Bernanke will try to herd wild markets at meeting.” The horse whisperer Robb refers to is Buffalo Valley’s Grant Golliher.

James McMurtry returns with band, Tedeschi Trucks Band returns with Grammy. Summer solstice sounds abound By Aaron Davis With Tedeschi Trucks Band, James McMurtry Band, and the 8th Annual Jackson Hole Crawfish Boil in the live music queue for this week, you know it must be Summer Solstice time. Let’s dig in. McMurtry in tow with band Grit meets raw, poignant lyricism when Mr. James McMurtry steps up to the mic. This Austinite grew up on a steady diet of Johnny Cash and Roy Acuff records and since his first album in 1989 – Too Long in the Wasteland produced by John Mellencamp – McMurtry set a course that would lead to quotes like this one by Stephen King in Entertainment Weekly: “The simple fact is that James McMurtry may be the truest, fiercest songwriter of his generation.” In 1996, McMurtry received a Grammy nomination for his Longform Music Video of “Where’d You Hide The Body” and in 1997, It Had To Happen received the American Indie Award for Best Americana Album. This is not your typical singer-songwriter, but rather a rock ‘n’ roll-meets-altcountry approach that will leave you both inspired to live a true existence, or contact your local representative with a political fist in the air. James McMurtry Band, 10 p.m. Tuesday at the Pink Garter Theatre. Tickets are CLASSES & LECTURES ■ Wine and Palettes, 6:30 to 9 p.m. at Alpine Wines Bistro. Enjoy fine wine while painting your very own masterpiece. All supplies and first glass of wine included. $35. 208-270-0833. ■ Lunchtime Learning, Noon to 1 p.m. at St. John’s Medical Center, Moose-Wapiti Classroom. See CALENDAR page 13 12 June 19 - 25, 2013 l www.JHweekly.com $20/advance, $25/day-of-show available at The Rose, Pinky G’s and PinkGarterTheatre.com. An eleven-piece soul stew When some of the world’s finest blues and soul musicians roll into town, it’s worth the premium ticket price. At least five hundred of you know this, because the Tedeschi Trucks Band (TTB) concert at the Center Theater scheduled for Friday sold out well in advance. This is a union made in musical heaven, not just matrimony. Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks bring tasteful musicianship from their respective solo careers and a newfound, inextinguishable energy for TTB that is still in its infancy, having been formed in 2010. The band’s debut album, Revelator (2011), won a Grammy for Best Blues Album of the Year in February, while Trucks, along with TTB bandmate Oteil Burbridge, were honored with lifetime Grammys for their membership in The Allman Brothers Band. The following month, Tedeschi and Trucks were invited to perform at the White House with Mick Jagger, B.B. King, and Buddy Guy. President Barack Obama himself even sat in to sing a verse of “Sweet Home Chicago.” “As over the top as a lot of that stuff is, the one thing I notice is, it doesn’t really feel any different than being on the road and having successful shows, like on our European tour and in Japan, and seeing the crowds grow,” Tedeschi said. Tedeschi Trucks, 7 p.m., Friday at the Center Theater. $85/orchestra, $70 balcony. 733-4900; jhcenterforthearts.org.

Let’s top that off with a ‘Nawlinsthemed, family-friendly vibe complete with boiled crawfish, red beans-n-rice, and the same venue and staging you’ve come to experience with Jackson Hole Live concerts at Snow King Ball Park. This marks the 8th anniverary for the Jackson Hole Crawfish Boil and a huge step for local production company 307 Live, which has previously hosted the event at Cutty’s.

Following an open rehearsal of "Fold Here," their current work in progress, Miller - a Harvard Fellow - will speak about the two years she spent in Israel with Ohad Naharin’s Batsheva Ensemble and the influence of her experience in Israel on her work and the formation of Gallim Dance. Using the art form of dance as a starting point, this brief discussion and Q&A will open the door to an exploration of the connection between nature, spirituality and creativity. Reception to follow. For more information call 733-6398 or visit www.dwjh.org. See CALENDAR page 15 14 June 19 - 25, 2013 l www.JHweekly.com Hosted by Jackson Hole Jewish Community HighArt Seek the intention of Intencións Crystal sound bowls and jewelry infused with flower essences create a unique alchemy at a new art gallery and studio space in downtown Jackson dedicated to raising consciousness with intention. Intencións fills a new-age niche among the dozens of nearby galleries, many dedicated to Western art. With an open invitation to local artists and healers to co-create, Daniela Botur and Frank Marinaro opened Intencións in 60 days. “I am a woman inspired to live to my highest potential through expressing my joy, love and importance of our interconnection through my art, and wanting to bring people together,” Botur said. “I’m a weaver of dreams. And my loom is spiritual.” More than 100 people joined them last week to celebrate the opening with an exhibit by Susan Russell Hall, a painter who spent 27 years as a medical illustrator before she began painting sacred imagery and symbols. Hall uses an encaustic method, which is evolved from an ancient Egyptian process of layering hot beeswax with color. Her lotus flowers are inspired by the seven chakras, or metaphysical life forces from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. “I am so excited to be a part of this,” Hall said as she whizzed around the gallery hanging her prints to collaborate with local artist and former gallery owner Lyndsay McCandless. McCandless inspired the experiential element of the exhibit where visitors were invited to walk through curtains in the colors of the chakras, choose the one they identify with most and leave an intention on the wall. Creating a gallery space that is experiential and open to interpretation took a great risk on the part of Botur and Marinaro as metaphysical art is out of many people’s comfort zone. With a weekend of free community programming, including crystal sound bowl meditation, a dance party, a chakra mandala and kids kirtan, Intencións offered people of all ages the gift of opening their minds to a therapeutic form of healing arts. A dozen children running around in superhero capes at the kids’ kirtan helped put it all in perspective. ■ Guitar: The Instrument that Rocked the World, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Museum of Idaho.

My GPS gave the little tone it does when I’m within 100 yards of an important waypoint and all I saw was open meadow. My two dogs were pinballling from chiseler hole to chiseler hole like they had been doing for most of the 4.5 miles we covered to get there. I stared at the blasted GPS and circled and circled. Meanwhile, my border collie had dug a hole so deep looking for a chipmunk that she flat out disappeared! I walked over to investigate. It wasn’t a hole she had dug. It was a little creek running down into a hole that seemed to be bottomless. The dog popped back out and the GPS went bonkers with chirps and whistles. This was it! I had been looking for a cave. I mean a real cave. Like Bruce Wayne’s Bat Cave, or the Tiki Cave that the Brady Bunch found the taboo idol in, or the cave that Andy Griffith got trapped in with Helen Crump. But Holmes Cave isn’t like that at all. Never mind stalactites, just pack your wetsuit and a flashlight. Finding the trailhead for this EVERY MONDAY Come join us for a FREE Introduction to Climbing Class every Monday night from 6 - 7 p.m. This is a great way to get introduced to climbing in a fun and friendly environment. A rock outcropping marks the entrance to Holmes Cave. ways think I will see bears here but I never do. There’s one more little hump to climb to get out of this hanging valley. At four miles exactly, you’ll notice a little pond on your left. Hop in for a cool-off if you need it. The last half-mile is a slight downhill and you will pop back out into another small open meadow which is actually a large sink. Look for the only rock outcropping here. That’s your cave. History E.

A photocopy of that map can be seen in the Jackson Hole Historical Museum in Jackson. A later exploration found the cave system to be much more extensive than ever imagined. To date, no one has spelunked it to its end. Noted archeologist J.D. Love explored the cave in the early ’70s and reported he had found tropical swamp debris in one of the chambers that he determined to be 50-millionyears old. Great gifts from around the world FREE CLIMBING CLASS hike also was very difficult at one time. When I first went in 2003, there was no sign to get you started in the right direction. Now there is. Five miles west of Togwotee Pass, a short dirt road pull-off the Forest Service calls #30042 heads up to a broken down cabin called Range Rider Cabin. Park it there and start hoofin’. Elevation is so gradual for the first 2.5 miles you will hardly notice you are pulling up and over a pass between Angle Mountain on the left and the breathtaking Breccia Cliffs on the right. Open meadows along with stands of whitebark pine and subalpine fir mark your way until you top out on the ridge. At this point the Breccias literally tower over you. You will drop down into an even more open meadow. To your left, just the other side of those jagged peaks, you will see the Lower Pendergraft/Terrace meadows of the South Fork of the Buffalo River. To the right is little Holmes Cave Creek, which feeds the larger Cub Creek. Straight ahead from here on your pilot knob is the Simpson Peaks. You can’t miss ’em. This high meadow is actually a glacially carved hanging valley at 9,600 feet above sea level. I al- RALPH MAUGHAN 734-8482. ■ Town Square Shootout, 6 to 7 p.m. at the Town Square.

If I could go back in time – or forward for that matter – to anyplace, anytime, I would travel to North America on one of the first sailing ships to reach her virgin shores. Or I would sail to Newfoundland like the first Vikings did five centuries before Columbus arrived. Or I would walk across the Bering Strait ice bridge like the first Mongoloids likely did long before that. To see the majesty, the unspoiled wilds of the great American West in the early 1800s must have been something. From Lewis and Clark’s iconic expedition to mountain men and trappers like Jedediah Smith, it must have been exhilarating to “discover” the symbolic natural wonders of the new frontier before these sights were turned into parks and preserves. But to go back even further, to the first Europeans to sail up a Hudson River that was teeming with fish; to discover a jungle-like Manhattan thick with wildflowers and forests; to see great buffalo herds in present-day Chicago, skies literally darkened by migrating pigeons, beavers damming Boston creeks, and the last great wooly mammoths to trudge the earth … would certainly have been mind-blowing. No, the closest I will come to living in the skin of some of the early explorers like De Soto, Coronado, and Cartier is to read the John Bakeless book “America As Seen by Its First Explorers: The Eyes of Discovery.” Bakeless described the wild new country with a conversational tone and clarity that brings each era to life. Massive redwoods in California, sprouting while the Roman Empire ruled the world, towered uncut and untouched by human hands. The waters off Cape Cod were so stocked with wild fish that had never seen a net, early explorers spoke of catching 100 cod an hour and oysters the size of a man’s leg. Elk and woods buffalo (a species distinct from the bison of the West) ran amok as far east as Pennsylvania and polar bears were spotted in the 16th century as far south as the St. Lawrence River. Bakeless puts the reader on the spot without the mosquito bites and Indian raids. The Harvard grad wrote dozens of books – mainly textbooks used in schools – and is known for his thorough research and impeccable accuracy. In this work, Bakeless uncovers hundreds of journal entries and eyewitness archives that lend authenticity to his work and bring to life discovery events using the explorer’s own words. Though still in print, this book can be hard to find. I have a 1961 printing by Dover Publications. This work was originally published in 1950. If you see any edition on Amazon or eBay, snatch it up. It is a must for any library.

Uncle Jed lived with his girlfriend Thelma, and Scooter, his blue heeler, in a blocked-up camper in Hoback Nation. “I want to add a vertical greenhouse under the new Snake River Bridge in Hoback,” Jed said. “If they can pay $1.5 million for a greenhouse next to the town parking garage then they can give Hoback $1.5 million for one.” “But there is no bridge!” I pointed out. Jed was undeterred. “I guess I’ll have to remodel the camper, put the greenhouse on the south side.” I was confused. “You want to grow vegetables?” Uncle Jed credited his longevity to the famous Hoback Diet, as seen on Oprah and created by local health guru Cletus McGee. The program recommended a protein-rich diet of bacon, poached elk (and we are not talking about elk cooked in boiling water) and tenderloin of roadside Snake River Canyon mule deer. A baked potato was as close to a vegetable as the diet came. “Vegetables?” Jed sounded shocked. “Hell no! I’m planning on growing pot.” “Pot? In Hoback! It doesn’t seem to fit with the culture of dogs, guns, beer, Jack Daniels and pickups,” I said. “Hoback is becoming modern,” Jed told me. “Pete just got a plasma TV for his trailer, and his daughter Bess would have graduated Beauty School and had a full-fledged career if she hadn’t gotten pregnant.” “I don’t know,” I said. I didn’t think the political climate in Wyoming would allow for government- sponsored pot growing. Perhaps a governmentsponsored distribution of assault rifles to preschoolers, but pot? It’s just too controversial. “Do you have a better idea?” he griped. “I do,” I said. “And it’s better than vegetables!” What follows is an excerpt from the application Jed and I submitted to the Wyoming Business Council. “The Community-Based Pole Dancers of Hoback Nation Organization (CBPDHNO), in cooperation with the Center for Erotic Art Enrichment Organization (CEAEO), have partnered to develop an exciting initiative designed to allow adult entertainers to open their own clubs in economically distressed and underserved neighborhoods in Hoback. The 501(c) nonprofit Community Occupational Disrobing Training Organization (CODTO) will provide training in bump and grind, pole swinging, basic stripping technique and education on maximizing tip procurement, as well as providing on-the-job experience, leadership development programs and breast enhancement counseling. “The partners envision a program that is multifaceted, comprehensive and innovative. Hoback Nation, a culturally deprived neighborhood, has a tremendous need for additional leisure and employment opportunities and it is hoped such recreational options will keep the locals out of coffee shops where a tragic amount of this depressed area’s disposable income is sucked away by Jackson’s notorious caffeine cartel. We anticipate the Wyoming Business Council grant will be an essential and primary part of our program and will add crucial training, educational and entrepreneurial opportunities to local underemployed women, who too often face sexism in the work place.” CLASSIFIEDS Classified Line Ads: $14 per week for 25 words or less. $.25 for each additional word.
