This project seeks to reconnect and restore four tributary streams in the headwaters of the Gros Ventre River for native Snake River fine-spotted cutthroat trout and other riparian-dependent species. Now owned by Trust for Public Land, the area is slated to become part of Bridger-Teton National Forest in 2017. Conservation groups are partnering to accomplish critical restoration before the conveyance.
