This great 60-acre peat soil wetland is fed by ground water and is located a few miles west of Driggs, ID off Bates Rd. The land is owned by our local conservation organization, the TRLT (Teton Regional Land Trust).
I used to bring school kids here years ago when I drove the Cart bus. It was undeveloped at the time but now it’s got signage and an observation platform.
I trudged out there this morning and checked it out, just for you. If you don’t live here, I’ve saved you a bunch of money on gas! Click on the pictures of the signs to read them.

You can really see how smokey the Tetons are :-(
You realy do a good job showing what’s going on around you.
I so want to go see this spot!
