New Snow in Jackson Hole

By Spring Creek Ranch on January 22, 2010

New Snow for Spring Creek’s Derek Goodson After several days of seemingly constant snow, I went to the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort for a couple hours of skiing this afternoon.

Moose Calf Checks In

By Spring Creek Ranch on January 18, 2010

Two moose were exploring the area by Spring Creek Ranch’s horse corral this afternoon browsing on shrubs and eating snow. The corrals are very close to our reception building so these moose could actually be seen from our lobby! This calf was most likely born last May and will spend another few months with...

A Highlight of Our Winter Wildlife

By Spring Creek Ranch on December 19, 2009

Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep spend summers at relatively high elevations and require some effort for us to find them during warmer months. Fortunately, this is not the case during Winter as we are able to observe bighorns consistently (usually very close.) These agile ungulates are spectacular to watch navigate steep cliffs and seem most... Read More.

Bull Moose in Grand Teton National Park

By Spring Creek Ranch on November 13, 2009

Animals are on the move in Jackson Hole as some species migrate away and others make smaller migrations within the valley.
