More showers, thunderstorms expected for Saturday

(Fremont County, WY) – County 10 meteorologist Dave Lipson has shared that today, September 19, we can expect a good chance of showers and thunderstorms as the low tracks to the Wyoming-Idaho border.

The heaviest rain and best chance of small hail will occur across northern Fremont County, namely Dubois, Crowheart, and the Wind River Canyon. Southwest winds will blow at 15 to 25 mph, with gusts of 30 mph, and thunderstorms could bring 40 mph gusts. Under partly sunny skies, highs will be cooler, only around 70 degrees. 

Tonight, the low-pressure center will track right across central Wyoming, and the heaviest rainfall will likely occur across northern Fremont County, just north of the low center. The rest of the county will have a good shot of additional thunderstorms as well. Lipson says we can also expect small hail and 40 mph wind gusts with some of these storms, along with vivid lightning. Under cloudy skies tonight, lows will be in the upper 40s.

Destination Development Program, Wrangler Roundup and other news from the Wind River Visitors Council

The Wind River Visitors Council has been approved for funding through the Wyoming Office of Tourism’s Destination Development Program. These funds will support projects throughout Wind River Country that enhance the visitor experience while also benefiting our local communities.

Approved projects include wayfinding signage in Hudson and Shoshoni; bike repair stations and continued expansion of the Art Banner Project in Riverton; and new visitor information signage on the west side of Dubois, along with an informational kiosk in the downtown area.

Funding will also support new interpretive experiences, including a petroglyph exhibit that will allow visitors to learn about and “see” area petroglyphs without accessing the actual sites, helping protect these important cultural resources. An outdoor geology exhibit will use a clear interpretive panel that visitors can align with canyon walls to identify rock layers and better understand the area’s geologic timeline.

Additional destination development projects are currently in the works.

Community Tourism Education
The Wind River Visitors Council is continuing its community education efforts with presentations highlighting the importance of tourism to Fremont County’s economy, quality of life and local businesses. These presentations also provide an opportunity to share information about the Fremont County lodging tax and how visitor spending supports communities throughout Wind River Country.

Upcoming presentations include:

  • Riverton Economic and Community Development Association (RECDA) — September 23
  • Riverton Rotary — October 6
  • Riverton Kiwanis — October 15

Wrangler Roundup
Wind River Country was pleased to participate in the Wyoming Office of Tourism’s Wrangler Roundup this summer, a statewide scavenger hunt that encouraged travelers to explore Wyoming and visit participating locations across the state.

A special thank you to the National Bighorn Sheep Center in Dubois for serving as Wind River Country’s Wrangler location and welcoming participants during the Roundup. The Center provides visitors with an opportunity to learn about Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep, wildlife conservation and the important role these animals play in the region.

Podcast
In the latest episode of Wyoming’s Wind River Country: Yellowstone’s Unique Neighbor, Charene Herrera and Helen Wilson head to Dubois, where Liz Furman of the Black Bear Inn shows them around town. Using the Your Day, Your Adventure pocket guide, they experience some of the many ways to explore Dubois—from taking in the views at the Dubois Scenic Overlook and discovering local history at the Dubois Museum to visiting the Fish Hatchery, grabbing a drink at the Rustic Pine Tavern and stopping by the iconic Antler Arch.

The episode offers a firsthand look at Dubois while showcasing how the Your Day, Your Adventure pocket guide can help visitors make the most of their time in this unique corner of Wind River Country.

Hunting season, firearm safety and suicide – What you need to know

With autumn setting in and hunting season underway, outdoor activities like gathering firewood, raking leaves, or enjoying the fresh air become everyday routines. Firearms are a familiar aspect of daily life in communities such as Fremont County. At the same time, mental health concerns can be heightened by seasonal stress, loneliness, or grief. Where firearm culture and mental health overlap, practicing safe storage and remaining vigilant are vital for community safety.

Current Data on Firearms and Mental Health

  • Wyoming holds the highest rate of gun-related suicides nationwide, averaging approximately 19.7 per 100,000 residents annually. EveryStat.org
  • Suicide accounts for more than 80% of all firearm-related fatalities across the state.
  • Because firearms are exceptionally lethal, immediate access during acute moments of distress, impulsivity, or despair significantly raises the likelihood of death. Across the country, firearm use is involved in over half of all suicides.

Factors Contributing to Seasonal Risks

  • Shorter days, colder weather, and shifting routines can intensify feelings of anxiety, grief, stress, or depression.
  • Remote hunting terrain and social isolation may delay timely intervention or medical assistance.
  • Increased presence of firearms in households and hunting camps can lead to unsecured storage.
  • Regularly handling firearms during periods of personal life changes, such as employment shifts, family developments, or the end of a hunting season, can significantly increase the risk of firearm access during moments of vulnerability.

What You Can Do to Increase Safety

  • Store firearms unloaded, locked, and physically separate from ammunition using gun safes, lock boxes, or cable locks. Guidelines regarding proper storage and handling are made available by the University of Wyoming’s Firearms Research Center.
  • Be alert to signs of emotional distress or warning signals, such as feeling hopeless, withdrawing socially, mood changes, increased alcohol or drug use, or sleeping habits changing drastically. Review these Suicide Warning Signs for further details.
  • Promptly secure or relocate firearms during emotional crises, and seek assistance immediately without hesitation.
  • Utilize state and national support programs for guidance and emergency intervention.

What You Can Do Right Now

  • Confirm that all firearms are locked in secure containers away from vulnerable household members.
  • Explore local safety tools available through the UW Firearms Research Center website.
  • Offer support to individuals exhibiting warning signs by connecting them with 988 or local health services.
  • Promote discussions around suicide prevention and safe firearm practices within community groups, churches, and hunting clubs.
  • Register for the AgriSafe Network’s free webinar on Conversations on Access to Lethal Means (CALM) taking place September 22, 2026.
  • Complete the Walk the Talk America anonymous survey to support sensible prevention strategies that uphold responsible firearm ownership.
  • Obtain complimentary gun locks from Fremont County Prevention at 818 S Federal Blvd, Ste 700 in Riverton, or call 307-851-1667.

What This Means for Fremont County

Preventing temporary emotional distress from becoming a permanent loss requires active responsibility from gun owners, outdoor enthusiasts, and families alike. Maintaining secure storage habits, engaging in transparent communication, and utilizing available help options remain fundamental to safeguarding the community.

Ensuring safety across Fremont County is a collective endeavor, where ongoing vigilance allows the autumn months to remain focused on shared outdoor traditions.

If you or someone you know needs immediate support, call or text 988 at any hour.

Pez McGowan is consistently positive, hardworking, and considerate of others. He routinely does A+ work and applies lessons beyond school, but his greatest asset is his manners. If Pez needs to sharpen a pencil, he waits until people finish speaking and there is a natural lull in the conversation, so the pencil sharpener noise won't interrupt anyone. He is a joy to have in our school.

Shawnee McGowan and Jonathan Jorgenson are the proud parents of Pezqual.

    Cowgirl soccer wins Border War game at Fort Collins Thursday

    (Fort Collins, CO) – It wasn’t pretty or flawless, but a battle. And that’s what the Border War is supposed to be, and that’s exactly how the University of Wyoming soccer team wanted it.

    The Cowgirls grinded out a 1-0 victory over Colorado State on Thursday at the CSU Soccer Field. The win improves the Pokes to 7-2-0 on the season, while the loss drops the Rams to 1-6-1 on the year.

    “You need these games to see how you need to prepare for conference to see what it takes to grind games out,” head coach Josh Purdum said. “We haven’t had too many tight games from a statistical standpoint, and at the end of the day that game could have gone either way. To do that on the road and to do that for a fourth road game in a row on the road is a testament to the group’s mindset.”

    Lauren Westwood’s goal was the difference. She found the back of the net during the 18th minute off a corner kick from Maddie Burr. It’s Westwood’s first-career goal as a Cowgirl, and she represents the ninth different Wyoming player who has scored this season.

    Cowgirls’ goalkeeper, Haley Bartel, turned away six shots for her fifth clean sheet of the season. It’s also her 23rd career shutout, which is four clear of the previous program record.

    Bartel’s six saves were the second most she’s had to make in a single game this season. That’s because for just the second time in 2026, the Cowgirls were out shot, 19-15. Alyssa Glover, Isabel Vasco and Reese Gould led the way for Wyoming with three shots apiece. 

    Speaking of program records. The 7-2-0 non-conference performance is the best in school history from a win percentage standpoint. Also, it’s just the second time a Wyoming team has ever won four straight road matches, the first time since 2009.

    The Pokes will remain on the road to open Mountain West Conference play. They travel to Nevada on Sept. 24 for a 7 p.m. match at Mackay Stadium.

    Give your old shoes new life at Riverton Rotary’s Community Shoe Drive

    Riverton Rotary is asking the community to dig into those closets and give gently used shoes a second chance during its Community Shoe Drive on Saturday, September 19, from 10 am to 4 pm at Walmart in Riverton.

    Community members can donate gently used shoes for all ages, including athletic and casual shoes, dress shoes, sandals, work and western boots, snow boots and more. Shoes should be clean, wearable, in pairs and in good overall condition.

    The donated shoes will travel far beyond Fremont County, helping people in need in developing nations such as Haiti, Botswana, Cambodia and others. By donating a pair that still has plenty of life left, community members can help provide something practical and needed to someone across the globe.

    The collection is part of Riverton Rotary’s “Scoot Those Old Boots” fundraiser, which runs through September 30. Donated shoes help Rotary raise funds to support local projects, including park improvements, scholarships, literacy programs, youth leadership initiatives, community cleanups and more.

    So, before those unused shoes spend another season gathering dust, put them to work for the community! Stop by Walmart in Riverton from 10 am to 4 pm on Saturday, September 19, and help Riverton Rotary make a difference, one pair at a time.
