Jedediah Smith
The Jedediah Smith Wilderness lies on the west slope of the Teton Range in western Wyoming. In 1984, Congress designated the 123,451 acre area because of unique limestone features, including numerous caves and outstanding scenery. It was named after Jedediah Strong Smith, a well educated New Yorker who explored the West in the early 1800s.

What is Wilderness? Wilderness areas are lands designated by Congress that are to remain undeveloped and natural. Wilderness may also contain ecological, geological, or other features of scientific, educational, scenic, or historic value. Wilderness can mean many different things to people but the Wilderness Act of 1964 provides a common definition for designated areas. A key word in this definition is untrammeled, which is defined to mean uncontrolled, unrestricted, or not modified by humans. It means Wilderness is unlike any other land in the nation, where humans are merely visitors and natural forces are allowed to dominate in order to preserve natural conditions.
LEAVE NO TRACE
Leave No Trace is a national program that strives to educate all those who enjoy the outdoors about the nature of their recreational impacts as well as techniques to prevent and minimize such impacts. Listed below are a few easy to follow steps to help limit the effects your activities have on the Wilderness:
• Do not tie stock in a way that damages trees, vegetation or soil. Please place high-lines in areas with rocky or durable surfaces, and use wide nylon straps to protect trees.

Victor • Use existing fire rings for campfires and use only small, dead wood found on the ground.

• To help reduce impact to vegetation and soils, travel and camp on du-rable surfaces. Use established campsites and trails where available and avoid areas that are just beginning to show impacts.

• Hikers, it is your responsibility to stop and step to the downhill side of the trail when horses are encountered. Speak softly as the stock passes.
