I appreciate the article / photos, but is just a part of the energy development story. What is shown are pictures of the nearby wilderness (areas that will not be developed), and pictures of the drilling activity. Additional pictures that need to be added to the slide show are of deer and antelope grazing and bedding within 50 yards of active drilling rigs...as well as those that show a completed / reclaimed well head. I hike in the Pinedale area and pass through many times a year. After reading previous articles, I have taken side trips to drive through the gas field to better understand the impact. You are doing your readers a dis-service by only providing one part of the story. Mark comment offensive

great photo work. thanks for a better view of the energy development around pinedale, wy. who would guess that getting gas out of the ground would require so many roads and defiling of the land? Mark comment offensive

"There's a joke we have," says Steve Belinda, energy policy initiative manager for the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership, "that wherever you find the best habitat, you find the best drilling." Few places exhibit that irony better than a pair of adjacent fields in Wyoming's Upper Green River Basin.

Last May, F&S arranged for Mr. Belinda and aerial photographer Cameron Davidson to spend a day gathering images of the area. "These are such big, wide open places that it seemed we'd never run out," Belinda says. "But if hunters don't speak up, we're going to lose these lands.
