The
following series of Jackson Hole Conservation
Alliance maps show the conflict between
critical wildlife habitat
and areas in the Bridger-Teton National Forest
that are open to oil and gas leasing.
They also show how vulnerable
the forest’s special places are
to future energy development.
We hope they'll spur public
involvement in the Bridger-Teton’s
management plan revision process,
which is going on NOW.
Please click here
for a fact sheet about oil and gas
leasing on the Bridger-Teton, and for
information about how
you can let forest officials know your
favorite places in the forest should be
designated
“not suitable”
for oil and gas development in the new
management plan. Click here
