Elk Creek Ranch !

Last summer, in July 2008, our daughter Emilie had the wonderfully good fortune to have been able to spend a month at Elk Creek Ranch, which occupies a heavenly piece of land out between Cody, Wyoming and Yellowstone National Park, and which gives teenagers the opportunity to live and work on a ranch, while discovering the incredible outdoors of northwestern Wyoming. After living the experience vicariously through Emilie, I would not hesitate to strongly recommend Elk Creek Ranch to anyone who has teenaged children whose horizons might benefit from a little broadening. This photograph of Emilie at Elk Creek was taken by Hap Ridgway, who is clearly a fine photographer, and is one of the key people making Elk Creek Ranch the incredible experience that it is for young people.
