Description:The Wyoming Range stands like a dusky silhouette above the sagebrush sea, revealing its splendor only to those who venture off the highway. Its snowy peaks and long ridge lines extend nearly a hundred miles from the confluence of the Hoback and Snake Riversto the headwaters of LaBarge Creek. The mountains highlighted in this book of photographs and essays include not only the Wyoming Range but the Salt River Range, Greys River, and the long, high ridges stretching another fifty miles to the Commissary Ridge, the Tunp and Porcupine Ranges, Absaroka Ridge. In this vast landscape of singular beauty, the Old West lives on. As the energy boom expanded over the Green River Basin to the east, conservation groups were the first to sound the warning about the impending industrialization of the Wyoming Range. Their voices were soon joined by those of sportsmen and outfitters. Elected officials, including former Governor Dave Freudenthal and Senator Craig Thomas, heard the rising call for protection of this, one of Wyoming's wildest and least-known mountain regions. In 2009 the Wyoming Range Legacy Act was signed into law to protect the area from future oil and gas leasing.
