Photos by Dave Bell - Green River Lakes and road Upper Green And Green River Lakes On Friday, I was fortunate to be given a tour of the Dollar Fire from basecamp to the lakes. Thank you to Pinedale Online for the help in getting this permission. And also thank you to some very accommodating personnel from the Dollar Fire. They were very professional and top-notch. We left the basecamp and made our way to the Lower Green River Lake passing through several division areas. The fire has burned much like many fires in our areas in recent years- -hot is some places and a mosaic pattern in others. Honestly, there are a lot of dead trees, but I have seen much worse devastation. We were told the sagebrush was not receptive to burning at the height of the fire due to moisture content. That was obvious when some sagebrush dominated areas did not burn in a pattern you might expect. It was quite difficult to tell what the burn pattern is along the west side of the lower lake. The smoke and haze was heavy along with a very flat overcast sky, but it appears a mosaic pattern burned along the west side. Could not tell to any degree what has happened further up the valley toward the Upper Lake, Porcupine or Square Top. But it does not appear to have burned on the east side of the lakes. My observation and review of detailed fire maps. Thank you again to the Dollar Lake fire staff. It was impressive.

Dawn Ballou, Pinedale Online! The Sublette County Hospital held a reception on Friday, Sept. 12th for artists who contributed artwork for the new Critical Access Hospital and Long Term Care facility that opened recently in Pinedale.

Sage & Snow Garden Club The Sage and Snow Garden of Beauty Committee was delighted to find Rick and Jenny Williams’ beautiful gardens tucked in a quiet space along the banks of the New Fork River. Only their neighbors would know about this beautiful spot, and we are so happy to have found it and honor them with a Garden of Beauty Award. Jenny loves plants and grows them in interesting spaces. She loves lavender plants and they are sprinkled throughout her gardens. She grows tomatoes outside and inside their large hoophouse. Kale and spinach are thriving in grow tubs around the porch and hoop house. Peas line a fence surrounding a whimsical garden of daisies, petunias, and knickknacks. Their yard has a variety of interesting shrubs, including Mugo pines, lilacs, chokecherries, dogwoods, blue willows, and crabapples. Their large hoop house is filled with cucumbers, zucchini and patty pan squash, corn, asparagus, tomatoes, peas, watermelon, cantaloupe, peppers, carrots, and flowers tucked into every available space, including petunias, marigolds, alyssum, and violas. The hoophouse has a metal frame with a 6 ml poly cover and is cooled with a large air conditioner and fans. One large raised bed is constructed with concrete blocks and the other has a wood frame. Inside the hoop house are two large containers filled with compost and worms to create and collect worm castings to enrich garden beds. If Jenny notices aphids in the hoop house, she immediately releases lady bugs to clean up the aphids. She uses a liquid fish/kelp fertilizer to give plants a boost during the growing season. Like so many gardeners, Jenny finds peace and vitality working with her gardens. |
