Trout Stream Improvement

Wyoming Game & Fish Jackson Hole Spring Creek Spawning Rehabilitation

Year

This major project represents years of work with private land owners to gain permission to redo old and establish new spawning beds on 6 miles of Jackson Hole’s historically most productive spring creeks. Just possibly, many years ago, 25 to 30 percent of the Snake River’s Cutthroat population came from the Spring Creek spawning system. The goal is to bring the streams back to their spawning potential. Costs were determined in early 2000. This is a long term project.
