Trail End

Trail End, also known as the John B. Kendrick Mansion, is a historic home located at 400 Clarendon Avenue in Sheridan, Wyoming. The home was built and inhabited by Wyoming governor and U.S. Senator John B. Kendrick. Built from 1908 to 1913, the house was designed by Glenn Charles MacAlister and cost $164,000. The interiors were designed by New York City architect D. Everett Waid. Kendrick was a cattleman when he commissioned the house, and he was only beginning his political career; once he became governor in 1914 and a senator three years later, Trail End became his summer home. The house is typical of homes built by prosperous Wyoming cattlemen in the early 20th century. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 26, 1970. The home is 13,748 square feet in size. It is one of the few examples of Flemish Revival architecture in Wyoming. Because the Carriage House was completed before the main mansion, the Kendrick family lived there for three years until the main house was ready for occupancy in July 1913. The Sheridan County Historical Society purchased Trail End in 1969, saving it from threatened destruction and subsequently opening it to the public as a community museum. The state took over ownership in 1982. See also Wyoming Historical Landmarks List of the oldest buildings in Wyoming References Further reading Georgen, Cynde A.

Basin Republican-Rustler Printing Building

The Basin Republican-Rustler Printing Building is a historic newspaper printing building located at 409 West C Street in Basin, Wyoming, United States. The building was used to print the Basin Republican-Rustler, Basin's weekly newspaper. The Republican-Rustler formed from the merger of two newspapers, the Rustler and the Republican. The Rustler was founded in 1889 in Bonanza and was the first newspaper in the Bighorn Basin; it was published in Hyattville before moving to Basin in 1900. The Republican was first printed in 1905 as a political counterpoint to the Rustler, which had affiliated with the Democratic Party. The two newspapers merged in 1928, four years after the Republican had moved into the Printing Building. The building contains a number of historic printing machines, many of which are still operational; its collection includes linotype machines and an Intertype machine as well as a number of other printing presses and devices used to assemble newspapers. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 19, 1976.

Atlantic City Mercantile

Atlantic City Mercantile is a former store now used as a bar and restaurant in Atlantic City, Wyoming. It is one of the chief buildings in the small mining town in the South Pass area of Wyoming, and is a significant example of a late 19th-century commercial building on what had recently been the frontier. History The store was built in 1893 by Lawrence Geissler, a 38-year-old German immigrant who had arrived in Wyoming at the age of 18 to work as a cowboy. In 1889 he married Emma Stegmiller in South Pass City. The couple opened a store in Atlantic City the following year on land owned by Emile Granier, a mining speculator who owned most of the land in Atlantic City. Geissler bought the property from Granier in 1900 for five dollars. The store served as the town's telephone exchange and post office. It closed after Geissler's death in 1929. It was reopened as a tavern in 1964 by Lyle F. Moerer, who retained the name and appearance of the store. It was sold in 1971 to Terry Weirman, and again in 1977 to Robert Rice. The establishment has been profiled in a variety of media, including National Geographic and Esquire. Description Atlantic City Mercantile is built from adobe blocks covered with tin siding, with a false front on the south side of the building. The interior walls and ceilings are also covered with tin. The one-story building stands on a stone foundation with a full basement. It is roofed with a gabled roof hidden by the false front. The building's principal characteristic is its front facade, with large display windows and a formed metal cornice. The Mercantile is the oldest surviving building in Atlantic City, with the exception of Hyde's Hall. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 25, 1985.

Shoshone Lake

Der Shoshone Lake ist der zweitgrößte See im Yellowstone-Nationalpark sowie der größte See in den Continental United States, der nicht über eine Straße erreicht werden kann. Er befindet sich auf 2376 m Höhe südwestlich des Yellowstone-Lake im US-Bundesstaat Wyoming. Zugänglich ist er zu Fuß sowie vom Lewis Lake aus im Kanu. Die Länge des Sees misst rund 10 km, die Breite schwankt zwischen 0,8 km und 7 km. Die Fläche beträgt 31 km². Wesentliche Zuflüsse des Shoshone Lake sind der Shoshone Creek im Nordwesten, der De Lacy Creek im Nordosten sowie der Moose Creek im Süden der östlichen Ausdehnung. Als Abfluss dient der Lewis River, der den Shoshone Lake mit dem Lewis Lake verbindet. Die dicht bewaldeten Ufer des Shoshone Lake sind meist felsig und besonders im Osten schroff. Das Wasser ist sehr klar und kälter als jenes des Yellowstone Lake. 1867 bezeichnete der Generalinspektor von Montana, Solomon Meredith, den bislang namenlosen See nach Walter Washington deLacy als deLacy's Lake. DeLacy hatte 1863 den Snake River bis zu seiner Quelle, dem Shoshone Lake, erforscht. 1872 benannte Professor Frank H. Bradley, Teilnehmer der zweiten Forschungsreise von Ferdinand Vandeveer Hayden in die Yellowstone-Gegend, den See in Shoshone Lake um. Damit würdigte er den See als eine der Hauptquellen des Shoshone Rivers, heute Snake River genannt. Literatur Aubrey L. Haines: The Yellowstone Story – A History of our First National Park. Vol. 1.

Lac Shoshone

Le lac Shoshone est un lac naturel situé dans le parc national de Yellowstone au Wyoming aux États-Unis. D'une superficie de 32,6 km2, il s'agit du 2e plus grand lac du parc national de Yellowstone après le lac Yellowstone. Il est alimenté par quelques ruisseaux, notamment De Lacy Creek au nord, Moose Creek au sud et Shoshone Creek et Cold Mountain Creek à l'ouest. Son principal émissaire est la rivière Lewis, qui le draine vers le sud en direction du lac Lewis. Bien qu'autorisées, la navigation et la pêche sur le lac sont réglementées. Histoire Le lac Shoshone a porté divers noms (non officiels) depuis qu'il a été « découvert » par des trappeurs au début du XIXe siècle. Jim Bridger a visité le lac en 1846 (peut-être même dès 1833) et Osborne Russell (en) en 1839. À cette époque, le lac était appelé « Snake Lake ». Une carte dessinée par le missionnaire jésuite Pierre-Jean De Smet en 1851 identifie le lac sous le nom « DeSmet's Lake ». Walter DeLacy, cartographe du Montana, l'identifie comme « Delacy's Lake » lors de son passage dans la région en 1863. Lors du campement de l'expédition Cook-Folsom-Peterson (en) à l'extrémité nord du lac le 29 septembre 1869, le groupe ne mentionna pas le nom du lac. Ses membres pensaient à tort que le lac Shoshone était la source des rivières Firehole et Madison. Cette erreur se poursuivit lors de l'expédition Washburn-Langford-Doane en 1871. Le 17 septembre 1870, alors qu'ils franchissaient la ligne de partage des eaux, Cornelius Hedges, membre de l'expédition, nomma le lac Washburn Lake en l'honneur du chef de l'expédition Henry Washburn, mais ce nom ne perdura pas. A. C. Peale, du Hayden Geological Survey of 1871 (en), visita le lac Shoshone en août 1871 mais l'appela Madison Lake. Ce n'est que lors du Hayden Geologic Survey de 1872 que Frank Bradley, un membre du groupe, confirme que le lac se trouve dans le bassin versant de la rivière Snake et donne au lac son nom actuel (Shoshone) d'après le nom indien de la rivière Snake. Shoshone Geyser Basin Situé à l'extrémité sud-ouest du lac, le Shoshone Geyser Basin contient l'une des plus fortes concentrations de geysers au monde : plus de 80 dans une zone de 490 m de long sur 240 m de large. Des sources chaudes et mares de boue parsèment le paysage entre le Shoshone Geyser Basin et le lac.

Shoshone (jezioro)

Shoshone (ang. Shoshone Lake) – jezioro w Parku Narodowym Yellowstone w stanie Wyoming (USA), o maksymalnej głębokości 62 m (istnieją pomiary wskazujące na 91,5 m głębokości). Po jeziorze Yellowstone jest drugim pod względem wielkości w Parku Narodowym. Jezioro leży na zachód of wododziału kontynentalnego Ameryki, w odległości 8,6 km na południowy zachód od krańca jeziora Yellowstone (West Thumb). Nazwę jezioru nadano na cześć plemienia Indian Szoszonów, którzy zamieszkiwali tereny parku i z pewnością byli ludźmi często je odwiedzającymi. Inne nazwy jeziora to De Lacy Lake, DeLacys Lake, DeSmets Lake, Madison Lake i Snake Lake. Do jeziora nie prowadzi droga jezdna, przez co jest uznawane za największe jezioro w kontynentalnej części Stanów Zjednoczonych bez dostępu samochodem. Do jeziora można się dostać pieszo jednym z trzech szlaków pieszych. Przypisy

Point of Rocks Stage Station State Historic Site

The Point of Rocks Stage Station is a former resting place at the meeting point of the Overland Trail and the Union Pacific Railroad in Sweetwater County, Wyoming, USA. It was built as a stop for the Overland Stage Line in 1861 or 1862, equidistant between the earlier Black Buttes and Salt Wells stations, which were 28 miles (45 km) apart. The station served the stage line from 1862 to 1868. In 1868, the Union Pacific line reached Point of Rocks, putting the stage line out of business. The station then became a freight depot for nearby mines, with a road leading to Atlantic City and South Pass. The freight activity declined, and in 1877, the station became a residence. At one point it was allegedly inhabited by Jim McKee, a former member of the Hole in the Wall Gang. It became the property of the state of Wyoming in 1947 and is administered as Point of Rocks Stage Station State Historic Site. Point of Rocks Station is sited next to the alkaline Bitter Creek, in a valley framed by steep cliffs. The station is a low one-story building, built of local sandstone with mud mortar. The station has burned at least once, and roof construction is a timber structure with metal covering. A stable building is nearby. The station is close to the present-day Interstate 80. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 3, 1970.

Wind River Indian Reservation

Die Wind River Indian Reservation ist ein Indianerreservat im mittleren Westen des Bundesstaates Wyoming, das gemeinsam von den Östlichen Shoshone und den Nördlichen Arapaho bewohnt wird. Es ist mit 8.995,733 km² Land bzw. 9.147,864 km² mit Wasserflächen (bei der Gründung etwa 12.000 km²) das siebtgrößte Indianerreservat der Vereinigten Staaten. Es nimmt etwas mehr als ein Drittel des Fremont County und mehr als ein Fünftel des Hot Springs County ein. Das Reservat liegt im Wind River Basin und ist umgeben von der Wind River Range, den Owl Creek Mountains und den Absaroka Mountains. Im Südwesten grenzt das Reservat an den Bridger-Teton National Forest, im Westen an die Fitzpatrick Wilderness. Es gibt über 365 Seen und andere Wasserflächen. Der United States Census 2000 weist 23.237 Einwohner nach, von denen sich 6.728 (28,9 %) als zumindest teilweise indianischer Abstammung bezeichneten, von diesen waren wiederum 54 % Arapaho und 30 % Shoshone. 22 % sprachen zu Hause nicht Englisch. Der größte Ort ist Riverton. Der Verwaltungssitz ist in Fort Washakie. Auf dem Reservatsgebiet befinden sich mehrere Indianercasinos, die den Stämmen gehören. Dies sind die einzigen Casinos in Wyoming. Geschichte Die Wind River Indian Reservation wurde 1868 für die Östlichen Shoshone eingerichtet. Ein Militärlager, Camp Auger, wurde am 28. Juni 1869 an der Stelle des heutigen Lander errichtet. 1870 wurde es in Camp Brown umbenannt, 1871 an den heutigen Ort verlegt und schließlich 1878 zu Ehren des Shoshonehäuptling Washakie in Fort Washakie umbenannt. Es diente bis 1909 dem Militär. Eine staatliche Schule mit Internatsbetrieb und ein Krankenhaus bestanden östlich des Fort Washakie. Die Kirche St. Michael’s in Ethete wurde 1917–20 gebaut. Die Ansiedlung Arapahoe diente ursprünglich als Verteilungsstation der Rationen an die Arapaho und entwickelte sich zum Handelsplatz. Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts wurde das Land unter den Indianerfamilien aufgeteilt und viele Namen anglisiert. Durch Bewässerung wurde die Landwirtschaft entwickelt. Eine Getreidemühle wurde in der Nähe von Fort Washakie gebaut. 1906 wurden Teile der Reservation zur Besiedlung durch Weiße freigegeben und der Ort Riverton entstand auf diesem Land. Historische Objekte In Fort Washakie befindet sich das historische Fort Washakie Historic District. Das Gebiet befindet sich innerhalb der Wind River Indian Reservation auf der U.S. Route 287. Das Fort Washakie Historic District umfasst 36 Gebäude und wurde am 16. April 1969 vom National Register of Historic Places als historisches Denkmal mit der Nummer 69000188 aufgenommen. Kulturelle Rezeption Wind River (2017) ein Thriller von Taylor Sheridan. Der Film beschäftigt sich mit dem Thema Verschwundene indigene Frauen in den USA und spielt in der Reservation.
