    Paddling in the Teton region isdiverse with a little something foreveryone. Ranging from floatingthe tranquil waters of the regionsmany lakes to the crashing wavesof whitewater, the Teton waterwaysoffer something for the first-timepaddler to a veteran water rat.

    Teton River

    The Teton River provides thegamut from tubing to world-classwhitewater. The river begins its

    journey to the Columbia in theupper reaches of the Valley. Muchof the mountain valley is pasture,

    grain and potato fields, andopen range bordered by theforested hills of the Big Holes. Theupper part of the river meandersthrough the pastures and fields,while the Narrows in the lowersection has all the adrenaline rushattributes of any class IV and Vwhitewater.

    The 15 miles above HarropBridge is very navigable. There arethree bridges in the upper sectionthat provide easy access for boatlaunching. Teton Creek, Bates andCache bridges are easy for access.The floats between these bridgesare mellow and easy to handle.

    The river below Harrop Bridgechanges character due to increaseddrop, boulders and rapids. Most ofthe flows in the Narrows offer classIV whitewater with one Class V dropat Boulder Dam.

    Snake River

    The upper Snake River offers

    class I and II white water, makingit an ideal location to masterthe fundamentals of whitewaterpaddling. Flowing into the Snake,the rapids of Granite Creek andthe Hoback River provide a moretechnical stretch of water.

    The lower Snake has many class IIrapids with flows ranging from 1,500to 35,000 cfs. The majority of areawhitewater rafting companies float thissection of the river. For those thirsty forwhitewater, West Table to Sheep Gulchis your stretch of the river; a narrowerchannel, faster flow and a series of rockledges produce Class II and III rapids.

    West Table is the most popular put-infor whitewater trips in the Snake RiverCanyon.

    South Fork

    The South Fork of the SnakeRiver is in southeastern Idaho closeto the Wyoming border. The SouthFork begins as it flows out of the 20-mile long Palisades Reservoir in thecommunity of Swan Valley, forming a64-mile stretch of legendary tail-waterfly-fishing. The South Fork is also abeautiful river for flat water rafting,

    canoeing and kayaking.Bald eagles and Ospreys are

    prevalent and many nest high aboveon treetops along the riverbanks; it isalways a treat to see one swoop downand catch an unsuspecting fish. TheSouth Fork Snake River has been calledIdaho's most unique riparian ecosystemcontaining the largest continuouscottonwood ecosystem in the state.The South Fork provides habitat fornine nesting bald eagle pairs and upto 100 wintering eagles. The U.S. Fishand Wildlife Service considers this

    river section to be the most importantfish and wildlife habitat in the state ofIdaho. Moose are seen regularly at theriver bottom.e

    A picnic is simply defned as an excursionwhere a meal is served outdoors, al resco,or en plein air, and usually takes place in abeautiul setting. There are plenty o placesin Teton Valley to enjoy such an outing. Howsimple or how rivolous your picnic experiencemay be is entirely up to you.

    One o the frst tips to remember is to tryto plan it on a day that the weather will mostlikely cooperate. That can be tricky, but i youdont like the weather in Idaho, just wait a

    minute. Its likely to change. That said, it is agood idea to reserve a covered area in case orain.

    Where can you go in the Valley? A goodidea would be to check with the Teton ValleyTrails and Pathways organization to fnd outwhich trails are in the best shape should youwant to get out and hike to your destination.

    Visit www.tvtap.org or maps and other handyinormation. You dont have to go ar to fnd agreat spot though. Other options include cityparks in Driggs.

    has the amenities you need, including a smallpicnic pavilion with fre pit and benches, aswell as room to play sports.

    Lions Park is one block south o LittleAvenue at Second Street and Fremont Avenue.It is mostly used or sports such as soccer andbaseball but has porta-potties and garbagecans.

    Fith Street Park is an 8-acre park at 235South Fith Street. It has a skate park, a 9-holedisc gol course and nature trails.

    There are two city parks in Shoshoni Plains.One at the South end o Booshway has apathway and grass area or inormal sports andpicnicking. The small park between Wind River

    and Palisade has a short path with benches.There are also the Huntsman Springs public

    parks. Available there are a 3,500 square-ootplayground, ull-court basketball and sandvolleyball courts. You can get there rom MainStreet. Just head West on Depot Street past therow o trees, and turn right on Primrose Street.All parks are along this street. Please note thatthe boardwalks West o the courthouse are

    private and not or public use.Now to decide what to bring. We will get

    the ood shortly, but there are a couple o muhaves or picnicking in the summer. The fone is sunscreen, and the other insect repellaIts no un or picnickers to sunburn or to eaten by bugs, ater all, youre the one whosupposed to be enjoying the east.

    O course you will want to fgure out hmany picnickers you are serving and paccordingly. Choose simple oods or a m

    laid back day. You can choose fnger oorom the deli, cold cuts or sandwiches, edesserts to bring along, and simple drinks. Yodrink choice may simply include your avocanned or bottled beverages. You can amake your avorite salads to bring along aeven barbecue. Just make sure you reservespot with a frepit.

    Bring a cooler large enough to keep yofxings, dishes and drinks cold. The simpler better, i youre just looking or an easy mthat gets the job done, strawberry shortcais a very simple dessert to take along. Jpick up an Angel Food cake, strawberries a

    whipped cream. I you choose to buy slicrozen strawberries, a juice or garnishingcreated when they thaw. Just put them in trerigerator, bag and all, the night beore. there is no extra mixing. Its also a airly lidessert that wont bog you down i you hiking.

    Make sure you have enough utensils adishes. Some preer to take lighter dishes, cuand cutlery that can be washed later. You cpack these in a pretty basket i you like, aadd the traditional checkered tablecloth anapkins, or you can go much simpler.

    12 Teton Valley Summer Visitors Guide

    Teton Valleys iconic Spud Drive-in is undernew ownership and has some changes for thesummer. What wont change is the nostalgia,driving your car up to the big screen or theGladys Burger.

    The smallest of Idahos drive-ins, itaccommodates around 150 cars and has beenaround since 1953. Its hard to miss the drive-

    ins namesake mascot, a humongous IdahoSpud replica nesting on a flatbed truck. Whilemuch of the look and feel will stay the same,one big change is the conversion to digitalmovies. General Manger Keith Zednik saidtheyve made the decision to go from a pre-World War II-era 35-millimeter film projectorto a digital one. The Spud is the first drive-inthe country to do so.

    Were kind of like a guinea pig, saidZednik. He explained that being a seasonalbusiness, most theaters are reluctant toswitch because of the expense. But Zednik

    thinks it will be worth the investment and thatit will bring a little variety to the community.As long as legal requirements are met, Zedniksaid hed be able to have someone give thema DVD and play it on the big screen.

    It opens the door for whole lot of otherevents, he said.

    While the drive-in wont stray from playingmovies, the new owners still plan to hostother events such as the annual car show andperhaps bring in more concerts. Last yearsDark Star Orchestra concert was a popularevent and The Spud will be looking to host

    a few more events like that if the opportunityarises. The Spud will host a Driggs Centennialevent, a Teton Valley Trails and Pathwaysfundraiser and a welcome-home party for ultrarunner Lisa Smith-Batchen when she completesher Run for Hope project next month.

    While the Gladys Burger and spud buarent going anywhere, a few new meitems will also be added to the Spuds fchoices. The new owners and Zednik hfrom the Windy City and will bring a bitChicago-style food with them, including Italian beef sandwich. Zednik said since hbeen transplanted here and wants to keepmuch of the local flavor as possible, he plato partner with 460 Bread and other lofood purveyors.

    While there are changes under way, tnew owners also want to keep some of lure and luster thats kept The Spud goiBut they also want to keep it updated. Nmerchandizing, a new logo and new Web slook are some of the current changes.

    Zednik also wants to try and host thenights, like a girls night out for the premiereSex and the City II, or a western night playJohn Wayne movies. He said hes open to a

    suggestions from the community. Hell alook into simulating a live broadcast if thwas interest in that. For example if there wenough people who wanted to watch tRose Bowl or a boxing match, he would able to open the drive-in for special event

    This is a community and the Vallevenue, he said. Tell me what you want aIll try and make it happen.

    Also new this year is a Sunday showiOnce The Spud is in peak season, it will open seven days a week.

    There will be a double feature and Zedsaid theyd rotate which movie shows first. more current information as the theater geup for summer check www.spuddrivein.cor become a fan on their Facebook pa

    In the summer, mountain biking reigns as theprinciple downhill adrenaline-etching activity inthe Valley. And with good reason, as there areample opportunities to ride on a variety o trailsand terrain.

    Teton Pass

    The Freeride trails on Teton Pass have becomea model or building Forest Service-sanctionedreeride trails. The downhill trails eature as much as

    2,500 vertical eet, enhanced natural obstacles andan ocial prohibition against uphill trac. Youll ndbig-banked turns and lots o eatures like logs, rocksand gap jumps. Each eature was required to havea sae line around it, so i youre not up or bigair, you can still enjoy the trails. Most riders shuttlethese trails rom the base o the pass in Wilson.

    Most o the rides in this area end with an aprsbike at the Stagecoach Bar, so you can park in thelot and ride up the pass rom there.

    The Arrow Trail was recently added to thePhilips Canyon area by the Boy Scouts o AmericaOrder o the Arrow and other local volunteers. Thisnew trail now has 3 miles o sweet singletrack that

    weaves through thick pine orests and high alpinemeadows. Over 1,000 Boy Scouts got togetherand built the trail in a week.

    TVTAPTeton Valley Trails and Pathways helps maintain

    a number o bike trails in the Big Hole Mountainsand other areas in the Valley.

    Aspen Trail

    This is one o the premiere hiking and bikingtrails in Teton Valley because o its accessibility.Located on the East side o the Valley this trailaords you wonderul views o the valley in relatively

    a short amount o time. The trail is accessed romthe south in Darby Canyon or rom the Northernend o o Stateline road at 200 East.

    Horseshoe Canyon,

    South Fork Horseshoe Creek

    This trail is not or the timid, but a newly routedaddition makes getting to Mount Manning Traila much more obtainable objective. Loved bymountain bikers, and the robust hiker, this trailaords the rider a spectacular downhill with viewo the Tetons that ew get to lay their eyes on.

    Pole CanyonThe trail is perhaps one o the best-kno

    mountain biking trails in the Valley. The loop laor 16 glorious miles through some o the mdistracting scenery on Earth. Dont get too distractthough, because its a challenge as well.

    TVTAP partners with the Teton Basin RanDistrict to acilitate three summer Trail WDays. This year they will be tackling some mowork on the Mahogany Creek Trail and will likbe heading to the southern end o the Valleywork on Pole Canyon.

    The summer Trail Work Days will be held on:

    June 12, July 10, and August 7Volunteers meet at 9 a.m. at the Forest Serviceoce in Driggs. This is an all-day event or allages. The days usually culminate with a thankyoparty dinner, drinks, beer and rafe prizes. Visittvtap.org or more inormation.

    Grand Targhee

    The downhill mountain biking trails are puttTarghee on the map as a regional downdestination. The resort also oers pristine crocountry singletrack trails along the base o tresort. The 4.3-mile Ricks Basin loop travels throuwildfower meadows and provides abulous vieo Teton Valley, and oers shorter or longer loowithin the basin. The Quakie Ridge is an advancsingletrack loop with a 300-oot elevation gthrough wildfower meadows and clusters o asptrees. And the 2.5-mile Bike Loop is a combinato singletrack and service roads, a great ride the entry-level cross-country mountain biker.

    Here you can see wolves acting like wolves, she said.Even if you do see one in the wild, you wont get to see itthe way that you can see it here.

    Another threatened species its safer not to encounterin the wild is the grizzly. The centers seven resident bearswere rescued from the wild, either as orphaned cubs or asadults who had become too accustomed to human food andinteraction, and therefore became dangerous. Instead ofbeing destroyed, these bears were rescued and now serveas ambassadors for their species.

    The bears habitat is intricate reconstructions ofwilderness, incorporating logs, trees, talus fields, mulchdigging areas, a waterfall and a deep pond stocked with livetrout. And during the summer months, visitors aged 5 to 12can sign up to serve as Keeper Kids, helping the keepershide food in the habitat, then watching as the bears usetheir sense of smell to search out the food.

    Even more information on the grizzly is presented inthe centers permanent exhibit BEARS: Imagination andReality, an interactive museum exhibit produced by theScience Museum of Minnesota. The exhibit compares andcontrasts the bear of myth, art, literature, history and folkloreto the bear that scientists, outdoorsmen and researchersknow. More than 25 taxidermic mounts of grizzly and blackbears are on display, in naturalistic settings with examples offood and behavior habits. e

    Dung and Dunger original blockprints, hand-pressed onto hand-cast

    bison dung paper, can be purchased

    at Xanterra git shops throughout

    Yellowstone National Park. Prints

    range in price rom $7 or a ramable

    notecard to $39 or an 8 x 10-inch

    print, single-matted or an 11 x 14-

    inch rame. The nine git shops are

    located inside Old Faithul Inn, Old

    Faithul Lodge and the Snow Lodge;

    Grant Village; Lake Hotel and Lake

    Lodge; and at Canyon, Roosevelt and

    Mammoth lodges.

    Recently added products include

    bison dung paper bookmarks

    tasseled with bison hair yarn, aptly

    named Skidmarks and marketed

    as some pulp or your pulp fction;

    Pooper-mache Magnets; and

    prints available or sale, visit www.

    dunganddunger.net.

    Vacations oten include shoppingor that special something to bringback as mementos or amilyand riends.

    Local artisans Victor Bruha andDaniel Hildago defnitely havesomething special or you.

    The duo, sel-dubbed Dung

    and Dunger, have created a lineo hand-cast paper prints that,perhaps thankully, Teton Valleyvisitors wont fnd anywhere else.

    Theyve come up with a recipethat incorporates grasses nativeto the Yellowstone ecosystem ina hand-cast paper. And wheredo they fnd these grasses?Already partially prepared or thepapermaking process in did you guess? bison dung.

    Any hooed animal only digestspart o the grasses it eats, so thevegetative matter passed throughis already partly pulped. Aterboiling the bison dung to sterilize

    it and adding some post-consumerpaper or strength, the result is aperect slurry, ready to screen intosheets and block print with originalart inspired by the local wildlieand vistas o the Yellowstoneecosystem.

    While Bruha admits that a goodmeasure o the appeal in sellingbualo dung paper is the tongue-in-cheek humor that goes alongwith the product, their choice alsoexpresses their love o the pristineRockies and their commitmentto the environment. Artistry,aordability, originality andeconomy are hallmarks otheir work.

    Were presenting a hand-cratedpiece o local artwork that cant beound anywhere else, and wereoering it at a price people can

    the wildlie prints include elk, bears, wolves and moose.Since the papers are each hand-cast and hand-printed,the color and texture in each sheet varies, as does theamount o ink in each impression. Bruha and Hildago signeach o these one-o-a-kind prints.

    Beore you ret that your masticated masterpiece willbe confscated at the airport, Bruha and Hildago haventbroken any ederal laws in collecting the dung. Bisondont know where the Yellowstone park boundaries arelocated, and they migrate in the winter months to ranchland adjacent to the park. In late winter and early spring,the artists scavenge enough chips or a seasons supply odung slurry.

    We wanted to capture the wildlie aspect in art, Bruhasaid. And it allows them to take a little bit o it back withthem. Its not just rom Yellowstone, its actually beenthrough Yellowstone, intimately connected with an animalthats an integral part o the wild West. e
