I traveled the Wyoming Range and Upper Green River Basin in Wyoming's Yellowstone Region last week. I was making images of oil and gas fields and sought out a place known as the Upper Hoback - a roadless area in the Wyoming Range that is proposed for a massive natural gas drilling operation. I flew over the site with LightHawk, then hiked here to get a sense of place and try to reckon with a plan to drill and destroy a fragile, important link in the Yellowstone ecosystem. I watched the sunset and the tundra turn to cinammon honey, storm clouds over the Wind River Range gathering magenta light before fading to gray, then black. There were no signs of human presence, save for a cairn on the summit. Conservationists across the region are contesting the gas leases. For more information, please contact www.wyomingrange.org and www.wyomingoutdoorcouncil.org. The USFS will make their decision whether to permit drilling very soon.
