The slash piles were created by the BLM during construction of a fuel break to protect the Hoback Ranches Subdivision from wildfire and consist mainly of Subalpine Fir and Lodgepole Pine.
The Hoback Ranches Subdivision is located approximately 28 miles north of Pinedale, Wyo. and 49 miles south of Jackson, Wyo. off of State Highway 191.
