Haskell oral
arguments
By Joy Ufford
jufford@pinedaleroundup.com
SUBLETTE COUNTY – The Wyoming
Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on
April 17 for and against a former sheriff’s ap-
peal of his 2016 felony convictions in Ninth
District Court.
Stephen R. Haskell, of Big Piney, filed his
appeal brief on Jan. 16 with the Wyoming Su-
preme Court.
In it, his attorneys Michael Bennett and
Timothy Newcomb argue his constitutional
right to a fair trial was denied due to a biased
jury.
In a previously unrevealed twist, it says a
juror sent a “startling” note to the judge – after
the prosecution rested and before Haskell’s de-
fense began – saying he had “heard enough.”
The State Attorney General’s Office re-
sponded with its own brief saying by not ad-
dressing the potential juror bias at that time,
it was too late for Haskell to claim he was
wronged. Also, it states, that juror’s bias could
have just as easily been in favor of Haskell, the
brief says, regardless of the jury’s swearing to
remain impartial through the entire trial.
Another argument both sides are wrangling
over is whether or not Wyoming law says the
“wrongdoer must obtain title to and posses-
sion of property” for criminal charges against
a public official.
Also, defense attorney Newcomb helped
craft the winning Supreme Court appeal
strategy for former Albany County Attorney
Richard C. Bohling, whose conviction on sim-
ilar charges were overturned by the justices.

PINEDALE – The Sublette County Rural
Health Care District submitted its loan appli-
cation to the United States Department of Ag-
riculture’s Rural Development office to build
a critical access hospital in Pinedale recently.
The USDA’s Lorraine Werner reviewed
the application and asked the district to make
some revisions.
Among the changes were including ad-
ditional management costs, explanations of
some of the assumptions made and also an
explanation how the new hospital won’t hurt
the Sublette Center.
The revised plan has been submitted to the
USDA and also posted on the health district’s

PINEDALE – On the drawing table for
three years, an expansion project for Ren-
dezvous Pointe is on hold temporarily, after
to attempts to advertise the construction
project had poor results.
Paul Jensen, executive director for Ren-
dezvous Pointe, said the project has been in
the works, with designs done and money
raised from donations in the bank. However,
the building is owned by Sublette County.
Commissioners approved an 800-square-
foot addition three years ago.
The first time the project went to bid in
2016 no contractors bid on the project.
Jensen said there was some confusion
with the designs and revisions were com-
pleted on Jan. 5, 2017. The new plans were
approved for fire codes.
The county advertised the project for bid
a second time and only one contractor sub-
mitted a bid.
Jensen said the project estimate came in
at $425 a square foot.
“I’ve looked at building cost comparisons
and know that is too high,” Jensen said. He
said he understood $300 or $325 a square
foot, slightly over the national average, but
not 25 percent more.
As time has passed, the plans will have to
be looked at again to determine if any new
fire codes will apply since the January 2017

One candidate filed for mayor

PINEDALE –­The opening date to file to
run for Pinedale Town Council was March
14. One week into the filing period and as of
March 22 at 10 a.m. only one candidate has
filed to run for mayor.
Current council member Tyler Swafford,
34, 289 Spruce St., has filed for the open may-
website.
In the original plan, the district planned on
paying the hospital’s management $200,000
a year.
Werner told the district to set aside an ad-
ditional $300,000 a year to cover the manage-
ment costs.
At the February board meeting, the district
formed a committee, headed by vice chairman
Laura Clark, to look at different management
options for the critical access hospital.
At that time, three options were on the
table: hiring a chief executive officer, having
St. John’s help manage the hospital or hiring
a management company.
Since St. John’s isn’t a critical access hos-
pital and doesn’t have experience with them,
that option was removed.

Sublette WPLI
to meet March 27
By Joy Ufford
jufford@pinedaleroundup.com
SUBLETTE COUNTY – Sublette Coun-
ty’s advisory committee for the Wyoming
Public Lands Initiative plans an evening
meeting, 5 to 9 p.m., on Tuesday, March 27.
The multi-interest group will continue
working on its management options and rec-
ommendations for Sublette’s three wilder-
ness study areas, Lake Mountain, Scab Creek
and Shoal Creek.
The Shoal Creek WSA in the Hoback
Basin, designated decades ago by the Forest
Service, is likely to bring the most debate and
discussion with the adjoining Teton County
WPLI also offering input on its uses, conser-
vation designation, recreation and ranching.
The public meeting, at the Sublette County
Weed & Pest Office at 12 S. Bench Rd., Pine-
dale, will have two opportunities for citizens
to make comments or ask questions around
5:30 p.m. and later about 8:45 p.m.
The public is welcome and encouraged
to attend, listen and submit thoughts about
how they believe each of the WSAs should
be managed, in part or in full. The commit-
tee will review current proposals on the table,
bring up new options for discussion and con-
tinue to revise each member’s recommenda-
tions while representing their interest groups.
Members are co-chairs Coke Landers
(agriculture/ranching) and Dan Smitherman
(conservation), Mike Smith (energy), Mike
Crosson (sportsmen), Monte Skinner (non-
motorized recreation), Bill Lanning (motor-
ized recreation), Mike Henn (conservation

Jake Owen to perform at Ranger Country USA celebration
Staff report
MINNEAPOLIS – Polaris, the indus-
try leader in off-road vehicles, is awarding
Pinedale with the title of “Ranger Country
USA” with a celebration that will include an
intimate performance by country music star
Jake Owen.
To commemorate the Ranger-lifestyle em-
bodied by Pinedale, Polaris is hosting a cel-
ebration on April 12, which will include Jake
Owen’s performance, an official naming cer-
emony and donation of three Polaris Ranger
vehicles to deserving organizations.

that Supreme Court decision.
However, the AGO tells the Wyoming
Supreme Court that it “erred” in its Bohling
decision about obtaining property by false
pretenses and “created a paradoxical gap in
Wyoming’s theft laws.”
Haskell had the opportunity to respond to
the state with another brief but chose to not
do so.
Background
Haskell, who was elected as Sublette
County sheriff in 2014 after defeating incum-
bent David Lankford, was sworn in on Jan. 5,
2015, with he and his command staff wearing
new uniforms.
At their meeting the next day, Sublette
County commissioners asked Haskell about
that uniform order and others he made for
the sheriff’s office before being sworn in and
asked the Wyoming Division of Criminal In-
vestigation to look into the transactions.
After ordering items for the sheriff’s of-
fice before he was sworn in, Haskell asked for
changes to invoices afterward to avoid paying
for them personally, according to special pros-
ecutor Michael Blonigen.
Haskell was arrested and charged in Janu-
ary 2016 with three felonies – obtaining prop-
erty by false pretenses, buying or receiving
wrongly received property and making a false
claim with intent to defraud in connection
with uniforms and badges. He was charged
with two misdemeanors – performing a duty
before being qualified to do so and committing
an unauthorized act as an officer.
Circuit Court Judge Curt Haws moved the
case up to Ninth District Court, where it was
transferred to presiding Fifth District Judge

In case you were wondering …
… What does R.S.V.P stand for?
Both hosts and guests may be confused about what RSVP means on an invitation. The term RSVP
comes from the French expression “répondez s’il vous plait,” meaning “please respond.” If RSVP is
written on an invitation it means the invited guest must tell the host whether or not they plan to attend
the party.
RSVP does not mean to respond only if you’re coming, and it does not mean respond only if
you‘re not coming (the expression “regrets only” is reserved for that instance).
It means the host needs a definite head count for the planned event and needs it by the date specified
on the invitation. Most importantly, failing to RSVP does have its consequences.
to help celebrate the town’s well-deserved
Ranger Country USA,” Owen said. “Pinedale
represents thousands of small towns that make
up our great country, and I’m honored to be a
part of a campaign that recognizes hard-work-
ing Americans. I’m excited to help make this
a celebration that Pinedale will never forget.”
To celebrate building its one-millionth
Ranger utility side-by-side vehicle, Polaris
kicked off the search for “Ranger Country
USA” with Owen. The two-month campaign
featured video profiles devoted to five towns
from across the United States, including
Pinedale, and asked consumers to vote for the
Steven Cranfill. Haskell pleaded not guilty to
all charges in March 2016.
Before the trial occurred, the county in-
stigated a civil proceeding for misconduct in
Ninth District Court that saw Haskell, who had
continued to work daily, removed from office.
Several trial dates were set and resched-
uled; the trial eventually began on Feb. 20
with jury selection from a pool of 100 Sub-
lette County citizens. Potential jurors were all
asked if – and swore to – hear the case through
without judgment.
Earlier, Blonigen had offered Haskell a
change of venue, which is a request only
the defendant could make. Haskell declined,
saying he wanted to be tried by a jury of his
peers. The jury of 12 found him guilty of three
felonies and one misdemeanor, with the fifth
charge dismissed by Judge Cranfill.
On July 27, 2017, Judge Cranfill sentenced
Haskell to two prison terms of three to five
years and a third of one to two years, to be
served at the same time. He also ordered a
$1,000 fine for the misdemeanor.
The judge then suspended the prison terms
for Haskell’s successful completion of five
years of supervised probation, to run at the
same time.

The swing beds will fill the gap for those
Medicare patients having intense medi-
cal needs of post-acute care available in
the CAH. Patients who need longer term
post-acute care will be transferred to the
local skilled nursing center, (Sublette
Center), thus providing a local continuum
of care. The Sublette Center currently
serves Medicare patients who are rehab
intensive, and the typical average length
of stay is about 20 days. The proposed
CAH swing bed program is not intended
to keep swing bed patients for that length
of time. In fact, in the financial feasibility
study, only 50 swing bed patient days are
estimated for the first year, which is only
four patient swing bed days per month.”

fact is, due to the surgical services pro-
posed for the CAH, there will most likely
be an increase in the number of patients
needing the services of the Sublette Cen-

Grizzly is top Upper Green grazing issue
By Joy Ufford
jufford@pinedaleroundup.com
JACKSON – With Sublette County
cattlemen sitting on one side of the large
table, and Jackson environmentalists on the
other, two days of meetings about objec-
tions to the Forest Service’s Upper Green
River’s rangeland grazing draft decision
proceeded slowly but surely.
The first meeting among the eight ob-
jecting parties on March 9 ended with
Bridger-Teton National Forest Supervisor
Tricia O’Connor and facilitator John Ku-
zlowski emphasizing the need for a second
meeting on March 14. The objections con-
cern the draft record of decision written by
Pinedale District Ranger Rob Hoelscher,
with O’Connnor agreeing to listen to some
– but not all – objections.
For example, she stated from the start
she would not entertain eliminating graz-
ing there.
Objectors’ issues range from grizzly
bear conflicts with livestock and humans
to the Kendall Warm Springs dace, fence
placements to permitted animal-units per
month (AUM) grazing numbers, stream
banks to rotational grazing, and forage
stubble heights to more supportive lan-
guage from the Forest Service regarding
its intents.
Between the first and second meetings,
O’Connor and her team drew up a list of
potential remedies. Some could clarify the
draft ROD’s language; others call for the
Forest Service to make more data acces-
sible to the public.
The issue of grizzly conflicts led to en-
vironmental spokespeople to ask time and
again for reduced or eliminated “stocking
rates” for the Upper Green.
BTNF natural resources manager Dave
Booth and range specialist Gary Hayward
said that the AUMs for each summer are
determined “on the ground” in March by
the amount of forage and other aspects.

Both stated Upper Green permittees have
greatly improved forage stubble heights
and leave pastures in good shape.
Western Watersheds Project director
Jonathan Ratner questioned them, saying
his calculations show stocking at one AUM
per acre would need about 2,000 pounds of
forage “and there’s nothing in the Upper
Green that can produce that.”
“When you have cattle on the range and
up with stubble heights and residual forage,
that logic is hard for me to grasp,” Hoel-
scher told Ratner. “You say there are too
many AUMs and we have grass left. At the
end of the year, we didn’t end up with dirt.
There was forage.”
O’Connor said she is “comfortable” with
the proposed decision to reduce cattle num-
bers permitted to actual current use rather
than the maximum now allowed.
Albert Sommers, rancher and president
of the Upper Green Cattlemen’s Associa-
tion, said producers keep trying to reduce
grizzly-livestock conflicts by changing
cattle movements, using more range riders
and working closely with the BTNF and
Wyoming Game and Fish.
Andrea Santarsiere of the Center for Bi-
ological Diversity said the idea of allowing
any AUMs above the current use was “ex-
tremely surprising and concerning.”
Hayward said flexibility in individual
operating plans brings fluctuations in
stocking rates from year to year. “I can as-
sure you, if there are 7,600 head of cattle
on the Upper Green – if they all went out
and grazed – they’d come home when the
forage runs out.”
Environmental objectors also asked for
more substantial reporting about how per-
mittees try to avoid grizzly conflicts. They
also endorsed mandatory rotational graz-
ing.
Sommers – and earlier, Sublette ranch-
ers Eddie Wardell and David Noble – asked
for more flexibility in the draft ROD, ex-
plained that changing pastures but not in a

prescribed rotation has prevented conflicts.
Santarsiere asked about carcass removal
and other practices – “If permittees on the
ground now are doing a lot of that already,
is there pushback against making them
mandatory measures?”
“Does making it mandatory make for
less conflict,” asked Wyoming Department
of Agriculture spokesman Justin Williams.
Sommers said, “There is not one thing
that’s going to solve the problems.”
At one point, Ratner and Bonnie Rice of
the Sierra Club asked why they should trust
Upper Green permittees to follow through
with attempts to limit grizzly-livestock
conflicts if they were unwilling to commit
to consider carrying bear spray mandatory.
“I can’t believe we’re having this dis-
cussion,” said Rice. “It’s a no-brainer to
prevent human-bear conflicts. The public
needs assurance they are trying to reduce
conflicts on public lands that are being
grazed.”
Ratner added, “If permittees and the ag
industry don’t want to agree to something
as basic as carrying bear spray, it gives
me a feeling there’s not much good faith
in dealing with this issue. It’s absurd.”
Sublette County Conservation District
manager Mike Henn said making bear
spray mandatory would call for a forest-
planning level.
“That would mean all permitted users
would need to carry bear spray,” Henn
said. “(Bear spray) is not required.
“A bear doesn’t care if you’re a grazing
permittee carrying bear spray or a person
taking photographs of the bear. Then you
should require all permit users to carry
it.”
Wyoming Game and Fish large carni-
vore specialist Zach Turnbull related that
in the years he has worked with permit-
tees to reduce grizzly conflicts, none ever
hurt or shot a bear. It’s a band-aid for
something that’s not broken.”
Carcass removal does not necessarily

reduce grizzly conflicts, he added. “Those
conflicts haven’t gone away; they just
moved to another allotment.”
Ratner said, “The problem is livestock
grazing in grizzly habitat.”
“Point taken,” O’Connor said. “We
will also have conflicts with people and
vehicles and will try to reduce them
where we can. I know no one solution.”
Albert Sommers said cattlemen will
continue trying new techniques. “I don’t
particularly want to see dead bears and I
don’t want to see dead cows.”
“We do want flexibility because we
don’t have the answers,” O’Connor said,
adding BTNF manages for grizzlies on
much a larger scale than just the Upper
Green.
Rice suggested “making it very clear”
that the BTNF has an interest in reduc-
ing grizzly conflicts and O’Connor said
she welcomed wording that would reflect
that.
“I’m not saying one thing is going to
work but some things have to be tried in
some places, sometimes,” Rice added
Santarsiere asked how range riders are
used. “Does it correlate to conflicts? Are
these working and how are they being
used on the ground right now.”
“The riders have the GPS coordinates
for depredation and they can see the cor-
relation to when and where they should
be,” Henn explained.
She asked about night riding, which
Henn said is dangerous.
BTNF’s proposed remedy is to change
the draft ROD wording to give “oppor-
tunity to move pastures to avoid conflict
with large carnivores.”
O’Connor will meet again with the
BTNF team and email an “offer as a reso-
lution and remedy” to objectors and see if
objections are resolved before formaliz-
ing it. She would then issue an objections
response letter before Hoelscher writes a
final decision. n

COMMENTARY
WIT, WISDOM OR WHATEVER
What’s your opinion?
Most folks have opinions about one thing
or another. One source defines opinion as
a judgment, viewpoint or statement about a
matter commonly considered subjective. I
think “subjective” here means it’s a thought
or feeling you hold about a topic.
Some people take the stand that their
opinion is based on fact. Mine are based on
me. Those folks can be wrong if they like.
My opinions are well thought-out, consid-
ered and designed to show others the error
of their ways. I do not take this responsibil-
ity lightly.
Take food, for example. We all enjoy a
wide range of edible choices. However, I do
take exception to a few. The first would be
cucumbers. My neighbor Roger and I agree
on that so questioning the taste of cucum-
bers must be more fact than opinion. My late
rancher husband would not allow one in the
house. His family had all been Italian farm-
ers in the Reno area. He claimed that even
the hogs they raised refused cucumbers –so
don’t expect him to eat them. These vege-
tables carry a strong taste and smell. To me
they will taint an entire green salad. You are
welcome to my share of cucumbers.
I might as well admit that I don’t cater
MY WYOMING
Hey Phoenix Zoo, those ferrets are from Meeteetse
By Bill Sniffin
Wyoming’s black-footed ferret is a rock
star at the Phoenix Zoo. In fact, you might
think the elusive little critter was native to
Arizona. Not so.
An obscure place in our state was the host
of one of the most impressive recovery sto-
ries of an extinct animal that has occurred in
America over the last several decades.
In 1979, the black-footed ferret was de-
clared extinct in the world. The famous nat-
uralist and artist John James Audubon first
painted and published reports of the critter
around 1846.
In 1981, Lucille Hogg’s pet dog Shep
dragged home a carcass of an unusual ani-
mal at their ranch home near Meeteetse.
Lucille was a fixture in Meeteetse at her
Lucille’s Café. She and husband John took
the odd critter to a local taxidermist to talk
about possibly getting it mounted.
The taxidermist took one look at it and
after a long pause said he needed to make
a phone call. When he returned he said this
animal was not only an endangered species,
but it was extinct.
Wyoming Game and Fish officials de-
scended en masse on Meeteetse and the
Hogg home. The hunt was on for the rest of
the animals.
This was an amazing coincidence involv-

to sour, vinegary foods. This includes pick-
les, relish and sauerkraut. Admittedly, I do
mince a pickle into my potato salad. Hot
spicy foods keep sour stuff company on my
“do not eat” list. Taco seasoning and mild
chili are acceptable.
There is a jar of crunchy peanut but-
ter in my fridge; it’s for my bird friends,
not me. I didn’t care for peanut butter as
a child, but having to inhale peanut butter
breath from all students eating school lunch
clinched that opinion. I sometimes believe I
should receive a medal from the bird world
for faithfully refilling the PB feeders every
week. Are you chickadees and woodpeckers
reading this?
It should not be a surprise that I have
opinions on clothing – comfort and color.
I will never understand why people choose
black, brown or gray when there are such
gorgeous colors out there. I do make an ef-
fort to coordinate my appearance, which
gives me an excuse to wear what jewelry I
own. I must admit, though, that my sister
gets a lot of credit for decorating me. She
did tell me that she often buys something for
me, then goes back and gets herself the same
item. I’m glad she does – or I might not get
ing a pesky dog and some folks who thought
they had found a really odd-looking ani-
mal. Thankfully that taxidermist was alert
enough to contact the Wyoming Game and
Fish.
Our local newspaper in Lander along with
most newspapers in Wyoming ran news sto-
ries and ads in the late 1970s trying to locate
any colonies of the elusive nocturnal animal.
None were found.
Ferrets are common in America as pets.
But these are not native. These are origi-
nally from Europe. The only local ferret in
America is the black-footed ferret, which
originally roamed all over North America.
In a recent column, I wrote about how
reliant the American Indians were on the
buffalo. Well, in this case, the prairie dog
is the buffalo to the black-footed ferret. The
latter’s entire existence is based on killing
and eating prairie dogs.
One Game and Fish biologist described
the relationship as the prairie dog providing
“room and board” for the ferrets, since the
ferrets also live in abandoned prairie dog
towns. One study showed that an adult fe-
male black-footed ferret and her litter of kits
killed and ate more than 1,000 prairie dogs a
year for their diet.
This ferret looks a lot like a mink but the

It is also my opinion that every household
should have a full-length mirror, and not
hidden on the back of the door that’s never
open. I was so happy when those hiphug-
ger jeans bit the dust. Only gals weighing
110 pounds or less looked halfway decent in
them. Most, once they got them zipped up,
walked around with those unsightly muffin
rolls above the waistband. A full-length mir-
ror would have cured that.
Movies and television follow my prefer-
ences in reading. I do not read chick lit, sci-
ence fiction, romance, fantasy or horror. My
apologies to Stephen King. I live alone and
don’t like to be afraid of the dark or those
thumps in the night. I do enjoy biographies,
historical fiction, a good sleuth adventure or
mystery (preferably one I solve myself be-
fore the last page). The book is always better
than the movie, although a few movies come
close.
Television has never ranked very high on
my list and is so dreadful now that I can-
celled satellite service several years ago.
You do not want to know my opinion re-
garding sit coms, game shows, sports TV
(especially bowling and golf where the an-
two animals are not related. It has a close
relative in Europe called the polecat, not to
be confused with the expression “doggone
polecat” to describe a bad guy in old-time
Wyoming.
Bob Oakleaf and Andrea Orabona, non-
game biologists for Wyoming Game and
Fish, worked on the project, which is fea-
tured in a video on YouTube.
Back in the 1980s, Wyoming Game
and Fish staff tried to locate the rest of the
pack of ferrets, using an old-style trap and
then some huge hand-held antennas. They
walked around trying to track the ferrets,
which had radio collars installed on them.
Ultimately they found more than 50 of
the ferrets and the small colony seemed to
be doing well.
But this did not last long.
The reason the black-footed ferret was
declared extinct in 1979 was because of a
disease called plague, which had been wip-
ing out prairie dogs and killing ferrets at the
same time.
By 1985, the number of Meeteetse ferrets
was down to 18 and the decision was made
to capture all of them and put them into a
captive facility to prevent further deaths
leading to extinction.
The initial facility was in Sybille Can-

Ponderosa,” and “Wagon Train,” in which
young Clint Eastwood played the scout
Rowdy. We could watch all of these as a
family – no foul language, nudity or vio-
lence. The outlaw or Indian knew to simply
fall off his horse or cliff without the bloody
stuff. If the stallion reared in the corral or
the light went out in the ranch house, you
knew what was going on ­– and hopefully
the kids didn’t.
My opinion is that many scientific “facts”
are based on theories. If there are no writ-
ten records or eyewitness accounts, how can
something be fact? Many will disagree with
me on this. That’s okay. We can agree to
disagree and still be friends.
I have formed my opinions over a lifetime
of experience, and I’m comfortable with
them. And, I know you have your own opin-
ions. Watch whatever television that pleases
you, wear black if you like, but, please do
not bring me peanut butter cookies. n

yon. As Wyoming Game and Fish was able
to breed more and more ferrets, other places
around the country got involved, including
Colorado facilities and the Phoenix Zoo.
Today, ferrets have been re-released to
the outdoors. A big event was conducted in
Meeteetse on July 26, 2016, where the crit-
ters were reintroduced to their original home
area. There are now more than 1,500 ferrets
running loose and they seem to be thriving.
Not good news for prairie dogs, though.
Meanwhile, I even bought a tee shirt at
the Phoenix Zoo, which was emblazoned
with the big photos of the black-footed fer-
ret and a big logo for the zoo.
I cannot blame Arizonans for wanting to
take some credit for this amazing survival
success story. But in the brief information
piece about the ferret, Wyoming was hardly
mentioned and the location where they were
found was spelled “Meteetse,” rather than
the correct spelling of Meeteetse. Oh well.
The zoo has provided more than 400
black-footed ferrets, which have been rein-
troduced into the wild. So, I grudgingly have
to give them a little bit of credit after all.
Not sure I will wear that tee shirt back in
Wyoming, though. n

Spring road clearing Water supply outlook

Northern portion of Moose-Wilson
Road to close for drainage repair
From Grand Teton National Park
MOOSE – Grand Teton National Park road crews have begun spring plowing of the
Teton Park Road between Taggart Lake Trailhead and Signal Mountain Lodge. The plow-
ing operations mark the end of over-snow access on the 14-mile stretch of road for the
season. Visitors may continue to use other areas of the park for winter recreation such as
cross-country skiing, skate skiing, and snowshoeing until snow conditions are no longer
favorable.
For safety reasons, visitors may not access the Teton Park Road while plowing opera-
tions are underway. Rotary snow removal equipment and plows may be working at any
time, and the roadway is therefore closed to all users at all times until further notice. Ski-
ers and snowshoers using areas adjacent to the roadway are cautioned to avoid the arc of
snow blown from the rotary equipment because pieces of ice and gravel can be thrown
great distances.
The roadway is anticipated to be accessible to activities such as cycling, roller skating,
skateboarding, roller skiing, walking, jogging, and leashed pet-walking within the next few
weeks. The road will open to motor vehicles on Tuesday, May 1.
Other park roads such as Moose-Wilson Road, Signal Mountain Summit Road, Ante-
lope Flats Road, East Boundary Road, Mormon Row Road, Two Ocean Road, and Grassy
Lake Road remain closed to vehicle traffic when posted or gated in the spring. These roads
may also close for short periods of time to recreationists to accommodate snow removal
similar to the clearing on Teton Park Road. The opening dates of these roads vary from
year to year and are dependent on weather, snow conditions, plowing progress, wildlife ac-
tivity and road conditions. For the most up-to-date information on park roads, visit https://
www.nps.gov/grte/planyourvisit/roads.htm.
 In addition to the road plowing operations, the segment of Moose-Wilson Road be-
tween Murie Ranch Road and the Death Canyon Road will be closed to all users, includ-
ing cyclists, for two weeks to accommodate road drainage improvements. From April 30 From the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

In addition, RMP also requests the Commis-

Crittenden named Rookie

of the Race in Alaska
By Cody Olivas
colivas@pinedaleroundup.com
FAIRBANKS, Alaska – Sublette Coun-
ty’s Alix Crittenden and her team of sled
dogs have been busy racing in Canada and
Alaska lately.
A few weeks ago, Crittenden raced in
Cross Lake, Manitoba, and finished second
behind Quebec’s Annie Malo.
“It was so cool to be a part of the first time
two women were ever on the podium,” Crit-
tenden said. “The people in Cross Lake were
so kind and welcoming.”
After driving three days to get to that re-
mote village, Crittenden and her friend and
helper, Taylor Ham, traveled to Fort Nelson
British Columbia to rest and train. After a
couple weeks preparing, Crittenden com-
peted in the Open North America Champi-
onships in Fairbanks, Alaska.
“This is considered ‘the granddaddy’ of
all sprint sled dog events,” Crittenden said.
The championships featured three days of
racing, and Crittenden moved up in the ranks
each day.
Crittenden finished 17th out of 22 mush-
ers after the first day of racing, on a 20.3-
mile course, last Friday.
On the second day, Crittenden finished
13th, which helped her move into 12th over-
all.
In the third and final day of racing, Crit-
tenden placed ninth to finish in 11th place.
After her performance, Crittenden re-
ceived the Rookie of the Race award.
“It was a great experience and a dream
come true to race here in Fairbanks at the
ONAC,” Crittenden said. “My dogs did
great and I hope to return some day.”
Crittenden, however, isn’t done racing
this season. She’s hoping to compete a third
time before heading back to Wyoming.
“We are having a blast and cannot believe
we are here,” Crittenden said. “Next week- Courtesy photo
end we hope to race in Big Lake, Alaska, at Alix Crittenden, left, poses for a photo after finishing second in Cross Lake Mani-
the Alaska Excursions Race before heading toba, with Quebec’s Annie Malo, the first woman to win the sled dog race, and

PINEDALE –  Just under 100 competi-
tors, including 91 kids, raced in the annual
Flamingo Cup Saturday at White Pine Re-
sort.
“It was great; we were welcomed with six
inches of fresh powder,” Sublette County
Ski and Snowboard Associations’ Director
of Ski and Race Events Ward Wise said.
A few competitors wore costumes for the
race, but the conditions forced a lot of the
racers to wear their regular ski gear. The soft
snow, however, also made for some smooth
carving down the giant slalom course, which
was set up on the Wind River Trail.
“It was a fun day,” Wise said. “I want to Cody Olivas photo

Pinedale girls’soccer starts season against tough competition

By Cody Olivas
colivas@pinedaleroundup.com
POWELL – The Pinedale girls’ soccer
team, which is a composite Pinedale/Big
Piney squad, began its season by playing
Powell and then the top two ranked teams
in Class 3A, Cody and Star Valley.
For much of the team, it was their first
time playing high school soccer.
“This was a learning experience for our
team,” Head Coach Jen Adam said. “A
third of our players had never played high
school soccer before.”
A late goal helped Powell beat Pinedale
in the first game, 1-0. Pinedale then fell
to the defending state champs, Cody, 4-0,
and No. 2 ranked Star Valley, 5-0.
Against Powell, Pinedale overcame
some early anxiety to compete with the
Panthers.
“The first 25 minutes we were on our
heels just trying to defend, which we did
with success and held Powell scoreless,”
Adam said. “Then we found some con-
fidence, and started to figure out how to
play together. We started to have an oc-
casional attack and Bailey (Schupp) got
two shots off. It was a hard fought game.”
Goalkeeper Rosie Douglas made nine
saves for Pinedale. Defender Faith Friend
also saved a goal. “With the goal wide
open, she ran in and blocked a shot,”
Adam said.
With time about to expire, Powell
scored the game’s only goal to win the
contest.
In the junior varsity game, Jackie Nutt
scored on a penalty kick for Pinedale, but
the Wranglers lost, 3-1.
Against Cody, quick goals to start both
halves proved to be the difference.
“This game was a difficult one for us,”
Adam said. “We are a very young team
this year and Cody is very established.
We came out a little intimidated and Cody
scored two right away.”
After the quick goals, Pinedale settled
in and kept Cody from scoring again in
the first half.
“We adjusted some things at the half
and were feeling positive,” Adam said.
“However, we were so focused on making
an attack we again allowed two goals to
slip in.”
Just like first half, Pinedale dug in and
didn’t allow anymore scoring after the
quick two goals. The Wranglers also had
a couple attacks turn into good scoring op-
portunities, but were unable to capitalize
with a good shot on goal.
“We are still working out the best for-
mation for our strengths and made a lot of
progress over the weekend,” Adam said.
“We know what to work on and how to
get better.”
Pinedale’s junior varsity also lost to
Cody, 6-0, competing without any substi-
tutes.
“They never gave up and played with
heart the whole time,” Adam said.
Against Star Valley, Pinedale had a
rough first half, letting in four goals.
“After making a few key changes at
half time we were able to come out of that
and played very well,” Coach Adam said.
Pinedale limited Star Valley to just one
goal in the second half, putting some ath-
letes in new spots as it continues looking
for its best lineup.
“We found a few different positions for
some of the players that will really deepen
our bench and pay off as we continue this
season,” Adam said. “I was pleased with
the lessons learned and the strong finish
from this young team.”
Schupp also had a breakaway in the
second half, but unfortunately she collided
with the goalkeeper and hurt her ankle.
Tonight, Pinedale will be on the pitch
again in Rawlins taking on the Outlaws.
“We are really looking forward to our
game against Rawlins Friday and are
ready for a win,” Adam said. “This week
we are working on possession, long kicks
and better pressure.” n

Boys’ soccer wins opener Getting a feel for the ice

By Cody Olivas
colivas@pinedaleroundup.com
POWELL –  The Pinedale boys’ soccer
team won its first game of the season, but it
needed extra time to take down the Powell
Panthers.
Vicente Acosta scored a first-half goal for
the Wranglers, but Pinedale trailed, 2-1, at the
break.
In the second half, Misael Anaya scored to
tie the game for Pinedale. The Wranglers cre-
ated a lot of other scoring opportunities, but
couldn’t find the back of the net again and the
game went into overtime.
With about one minute left in the extra
frame, Acosta scored the game-winner, pro-
pelling Pinedale to the 3-2 victory.
“The Powell game went really well espe-
cially for the first contest of the year,” Pine-
dale Head Coach J.D. Dudrey said.
After beating Powell, Pinedale squared
off with Cody. The Wranglers struck first.
Sammy White assisted Senddey Gutierrez to
put PHS up, 1-0.
The Wranglers kept creating scoring op-
portunities, but their shots were just off target,
hitting the cross bar multiple times.
Cody, meanwhile, rallied in the second
half, scoring two goals to win the game, 2-1.
“In the second half we just made a couple
mistakes that cost us two goals and turned out
to be the deciding factor in the game,” Dudrey
said.
The Wranglers then played No. 1-ranked
Star Valley on Tuesday, competing for the
third time in five days.
The Braves, however, shut out Pinedale,
9-0.
“The Star Valley game on the other hand
went very poorly all around,” Dudrey said.
“We could not stop their attack, but a posi-
tive is that we know what we need to work Photo courtesy of Nan Stinson

On the final day of the eight-week lessons students and volunteers went to the top of the mountain and came down the ‘Big Hill’ as a group.

Preschool children finish ski classes

From the Children’s Discovery Center
PINEDALE –The Children’s Discovery Center finished an eight-week ski program at White Pine Ski
Resort on Monday, March 12, with a pizza and ice cream party.
The program began Jan. 8, with 19 participants, ages 3 to 5 years old. Commonly referred to by White
Pine employees as “penguins,” more than half the children had not skied prior to the lessons.
Parents, volunteers, White Pine staff and CDC staff donated time every Monday for the lessons. The
Children’s Discovery Center pays a reduced rate for the lessons and White Pine donates the skiing to
volunteers who help with lessons. Nearly all of the children celebrated with a run down the big hill on
the final day of class.
Students begin their next adventure at the Pinedale Aquatic Center with swimming lessons.n
