It was a big archway at an entrance to a park -but what exactly was that arch made of? Well, there are really four arches at every corner of the park, and they are made from elk antlers. They were built by the local Rotary Club in 1953 and have become a beloved Jackson Hole icon as a landmark and photo backdrop for wedding shoots and family portraits. I read that each of the four arches are made of between 1,000 to 2,000 pounds of antlers. The local Boy Scouts pick up antlers that were shed at the Elk Refuge for the arches and harvest them for the arches. Each antler weighs between 5 and 10 pounds, and are mechanically attached around a steel frame to create these magnificent arches. I also read that the antlers degrade over time, so constant inspection and replacement is necessary.

We did not see elk during our June visit. They're at the refuge from mid-December through early April when they begin migrating. They move toward their summer ranges, following the receding snow line up to higher elevations in Grand Teton National Park & the Bridger Teton National Forest. From October through December, deepening snow cause the elk to seek food and shelter at these lower elevations in Jackson Hole.

It's easy to imagine JP Cunningham living there and taking in some dubious ledgers that turned out to be horse thieves. Also, the sheriff who tracked them down to Cunningham's cabin, in a move that ended in the deadly gun fight. But more than that, it's easy to see how the rugged rancher life, subject to the whims of seasonal rains and draughts would, in the end, capitulate to the settlement with the Rockefeller land deal that lead to the establishment of the national park.
