Spring Planning at the Ranch

By Spring Creek Ranch on April 22, 2016

Quite frankly, we just don’t know where to begin. Each year, when spring finally hits the Tetons, the whole valley is a sight to behold, and something about it just brings out that “git ‘er done” frame of mind that the community of Jackson holds dear. Which means there’s a lot to see and... Read More.

Local Lore

By springcreekran on April 17, 2015

Spring is not usually on people’s radar as a time to visit Jackson Hole but it should be. Known to locals as the shoulder season, it’s that time of year when holiday skiers have headed home and the first arrival of summer visitors has yet to begin. The grande dame of America’s national parks,... Read More.

Fall Yellowstone Wolf and Bear Safari

By Jessica Zelenko on August 7, 2014

I visited Jackson Hole year after year as a child and never saw a bear. My family and I were always on the lookout. We pulled over every time we saw cars gathered on the side of the road in the hopes of spotting the elusive bear. We’d anxiously look around when we heard... Read More.

Black Bears & Berries

By Spring Creek Ranch on September 21, 2013

Both species of local bears are becoming more visible these days as they anticipate their upcoming hibernation. Black bears, such as this one, have been particularly active feeding on service berries and hawthorn berries in Grand Teton National Park. Read More.

Big Bad Wolf

By Spring Creek Ranch on January 10, 2011

The last few safaris have been absolutely phenomenal with excellent sightings and interesting behaviors observed. This black wolf was seen in Grand Teton National Park along with a gray-colored wolf nearby and was one of many great animals seen. Other sightings included moose browsing on cottonwood trees, a young golden eagle attacking bighorn sheep,... Read More.

Wolves and Bears of Yellowstone

By Spring Creek Ranch on October 15, 2010

This month’s multi-day safaris have been excellent in terms of cooperative weather and cooperative wildlife. Our primary objective on these safaris is to see predators and we were able to watch several species of predators on each of these including gray wolves, grizzly bears, eagles, coyotes, weasels and black bears. During one evening, we... Read More.

Bison Puppies

By Spring Creek Ranch on May 23, 2010

It is definitely more correct to refer to young bison as calves, but they give such an impression of little, red dogs that they are sometimes referred to as puppies. Newborn bison have been a highlight of safaris lately along with excellent sightings of many other birds and mammals. Our recent Wolf and Bear... Read More.

Winter is coming to Jackson Hole

By Spring Creek Ranch on October 12, 2009

Weather here in October is reliably unpredictable, but we still managed to find amazing wildlife during this past weekend’s multi-day safari. We spent over an hour watching this sow black bear and her two cubs enthusiastically forage for berries. The falling snow added a nice backdrop to all of the wildlife and the wintery... Read More.
