GUIDED ECO TOURS
You’ll explore panoramic views of snowcapped mountains, forests, rocky ridges, and windswept grassy slopes in the Whiskey Basin Wildlife Habitat Area. One of the first things you’ll notice is the rolling up-and-down landscape with boulders strewn everywhere, these features arranged so thanks to the glaciers that covered this region 10,000-15,000 years ago. As you ride the road along this glacial roller coaster, you will approach Whiskey Mountain, home of the famous Whiskey Mountain bighorn sheep.
Make sure to scan the hillsides for wildlife, which may include elk, mule deer, badger and coyotes, as well as hawks and eagles.
On the face of a nearby boulder is a carved image described as Water Ghost Spirit. It was etched by those who are considered to have been the ancestors of today’s Shoshone Indians, the Sheepeaters.
