Project Description
The Bridger-Teton National Forest (BTNF) is in the midst of a long-overdue Forest Plan revision. The Forest Plan is the guiding document that shapes every resource decision on the Forest for the next decade or more. The last plan stood for over 25 years, so the stakes couldn’t be higher. For the Wyoming Wild Sheep Foundation, this process is especially critical as the BTNF is home to Wyoming’s four Core Native bighorn sheep herds; the last truly wild, never-augmented herds in our state.
So far, we are only in the first phase of the revision, and the WY-WSF has commented on the Draft Assessment that came out in July 2025. We are working with other sporting and conservation groups to monitor the process and keep our members apprised of important comment opportunities.
