Spindrift: Stories of Teton Basin

“Teton Basin, Idaho and Wyoming, was transformed by the waters of an ancient sea, by the upheaval of mountains and by the carving of glaciers. Today the landscape again faces great change, caused this time by a flood of human beings who come to live and play. Native Americans who first walked here stayed only in the summers and trod lightly; homesteaders who followed plowed fields and diverted waters; recent arrivals explore the backcountry on skis or ATVs; developers carve the grainfields into lots.

Spindrift: Stories of Teton Basin seeks a sense of place and community in the face of this great change by gathering the disparate voices of those who have drifted here, past and present.” – From Spindrift
