Area 89 covers the upper Greys River, the southern Salt River Range, and the country bridging the headwaters between the Greys and the Salt River drainage. Elevations run from about 6,500 feet on the lower forest fringes to over 10,500 feet on the Salt River Range crest. The country is deep timber: aspen and lodgepole pine on the lower slopes, transitioning into Engelmann spruce, subalpine fir, and lodgepole through the mid-elevations, with whitebark pine on the highest exposed ridges and alpine meadow above timberline. Major drainages include the upper Greys, the Salt River headwaters, and Strawberry Creek. The country is genuinely remote—the headwaters reach is among the more isolated stretches of mountain in western Wyoming. Bridger-Teton National Forest dominates. The Greys River Road climbs from Alpine; forest roads from the Star Valley side off US-89 reach the Salt River Range; trails connect the two through saddles in the high country. Alpine and Afton are the supply points. Cell service is gone in the backcountry. Quality elk in remote country, moose in the willow bottoms, mule deer in the aspens. Grizzly bear country with the calculus all that implies. Pack horses or strong legs are preferred—the country rewards getting deep.
