Human remains found near Sweetwater Gap (posted 9/17/2025)
Sublette County Sheriff’s Office
On September 6th, 2025, the Sublette County Sheriff’s Office responded to a remote area near Sweetwater Gap Guard Station to a report of human remains discovered by hunters. Deputies and Detectives located disarticulated human skeletal remains scattered along with a tent and personal items.

Preliminary findings suggest the remains have been in the area for approximately five years and belong to an adult male. An identification card was located at the scene; however, a positive identification has not been confirmed.

Cause of death has also not been determined; however, foul play does not seem to be a factor. No missing person reports have been matched to the remains or the location.

Anyone who has visited the Sweetwater Gap area in recent years and may have come across bones, camping equipment, or other personal items is encouraged to contact Detective Hana Patterson at hpatterson@sublettecountywy.gov or Detective Sergeant Travis Lanning tlanning@sublettecountywy.gov.

Upper Green And Green River Lakes On Friday, I was fortunate to be given a tour of the Dollar Fire from basecamp to the lakes. Thank you to Pinedale Online for the help in getting this permission. And also thank you to some very accommodating personnel from the Dollar Fire. They were very professional and top-notch. We left the basecamp and made our way to the Lower Green River Lake passing through several division areas. The fire has burned much like many fires in our areas in recent years- -hot is some places and a mosaic pattern in others. Honestly, there are a lot of dead trees, but I have seen much worse devastation. We were told the sagebrush was not receptive to burning at the height of the fire due to moisture content. That was obvious when some sagebrush dominated areas did not burn in a pattern you might expect. It was quite difficult to tell what the burn pattern is along the west side of the lower lake. The smoke and haze was heavy along with a very flat overcast sky, but it appears a mosaic pattern burned along the west side. Could not tell to any degree what has happened further up the valley toward the Upper Lake, Porcupine or Square Top. But it does not appear to have burned on the east side of the lakes. My observation and review of detailed fire maps. Thank you again to the Dollar Lake fire staff. It was impressive. Dave Bell
