Spirits of Riverton: Unveiling the Haunting Tales of Downtown 40:08

“Do you believe in ghosts?” is the question that was asked at the beginning of a tour of the haunted history of Riverton with local educator, historian and collector of ghost stories, Alma Law. Alma greeted us in the Riverton Museum holding a doll named Amelia, and while Amelia’s mysterious history points to a potential haunting, there was something quite captivating and beautiful about her. After taking a deep dive into the history of the Riverton Museum, we traveled to the Masonic Temple, where Ken Watts joined us and added his insights and stories to the haunted history narrative of the Temple. Then we made our way to the old jail to meet with Bart Ringer, who worked as a sergeant at the jail for many years. Bart and Alma talked about the jail’s spooky past and the role that it served in the community. Grab a warm beverage, a cozy blanket and your favorite mysterious doll, and listen along as Alma tells stories of people from long ago, an orange tabby cat and a mysterious jogger. And then you can decide, “do you believe in ghosts?” For more information about Alma Law’s haunted downtown walking tours, contact Alma directly at (307) 240-9403. Tours are available year-round.…

Beneath the Boulders: Exploring Boulder Choke Cave in Sinks Canyon 33:22

25 weeks temu33:22

On Tuesday, September 10, Charene Herrera, Michael Morris and Helen Wilson headed underground into the Boulder Choke Cave with Skylar Sargent and Ella Sokolowski of Sinks Canyon State Park. The ⅛ mile long cave system, which ranges from 20 to 100 feet deep, was discovered in the 1990s by a Sinks Canyon State Park staff member. It is a series of limestone caverns that flood and drain every year with the spring melt. The entrance is hidden in a nondescript pile of boulders, and it requires both flexibility and bravery to squeeze through the 16” x 16” opening. Once adventurers are through the initial squeeze, they must crawl through a 20 foot tunnel before the cave system opens up to a room large enough to hold a group of 10 people comfortably. The largest room is over 80 feet wide, and includes a view of the Popo Agie River, as it flows underground. In addition to exploring the various rooms, Charene, Michael and Helen also had the opportunity to see fish living in the underground pools. These fish live with a complete absence of light and have therefore lost their pigment, so they appear white. Cave tours are available from mid-August to mid-April. The tour includes all caving gear, protective clothing, safety equipment and a trained cave guide. Participants learn about the geology of the cave system, unique microbial life forms called snottites and what it’s like to experience an absolute absence of light. Listen along as Charene, Michael and Helen explore the Boulder Choke Cave. For more information on cave tours, visit https://www.facebook.com/SinksCanyonStatePark/ .…

Echoes of Uranium: Unearthing Jeffrey City's Ghostly Past 28:43

On Saturday, Aug. 10, the Riverton Museum hosted a Jeffrey City Adventure Trek as part of the Wind River Visitors Council’s Adventure Trek Series. Trip Leader, Zach Larson, who completed his thesis on uranium and the uranium mines in Wyoming, guided the tour. Jeffrey City was originally called "Home on the Range," and during the trek the group visited the original homestead, where they met the current owner, Bob Adams. Jeffrey City was once Fremont County’s third largest town—a bustling mining town complete with restaurants, a bowling alley, a movie theater and a swimming pool. The town saw an explosive growth beginning in the late 1950s and had an ultimate decline in the early 1980s. The town is now home to a few dozen residents, and a welcome stopover for cross-country cyclists. The Wyoming Jade Festival was taking place during the trek, which brought an unusual number of people to Jeffrey City, a contrast to its typical desolation. The group explored old lots that once housed hundreds of homes, most of which are now long gone. The remnants of Jeffrey City's once-vibrant community were starkly evident. The group discovered a charming bike hostel and took shelter there as the heavy rain began to pour. This hostel is a reminder of the area's lingering hospitality, despite its ghost town status. Tune in to step back in time to a once vibrant Jeffrey City. For more detailed information on Jeffrey City’s history and the uranium boom, visit Exploring Rural .…
