Teton River

Than the other spot

... and, and the other river that was, uh, one I grew up on was the Teton River, because in Sugar City, uh, the Teton is one of the only rivers I'm aware of in the entire world that forks away from itself.

The North Fork and the South Fork actually split, and then each fork eventually, uh, runs into the Henry's Fork.

But, and Sugar City sits right between the two.

You wouldn't wanna be on the South Fork.

And then later on, maybe late June, July, I'd probably be on the South Fork.

And now this time of year, I'm probably gonna be more inclined to go up on the upper Teton River, and it's just like the Harriman.

It's real metal, water, and big fish, and good hatches, and sight fishing, and the whole thing.

But we had a working prototype, and it was working, and, and they could see it, and they were impressed with it.

You know, for example, in this area, um, we have land that's surrounded by the Teton River, and it's protected from other fields and overspray and that type of stuff.

Um, and so they're all spraying their weeds and different things, and they might look at what we're doing and say, "Man, that field has some weeds in it." Well, there are times when I can look at conventional fields that have more weeds than we do, right? So it's, um, over the long run, they start to see our performance, and they start to see, "Hey, these guys actually know how to do this." And they're actively managing these situations like weeds to the point where, yeah, it's not gonna always look exactly the same as, you know, maybe the neighbor's field will in terms of uniformity or whatever, 'cause we might have companion crops in there or cover crops or whatever we're doing.

We do what might-- people might call some weird stuff, and, and people might point fingers and laugh at it now, but I'm seeing a lot more people in this area starting to do it.

The Sioux possess the southwest side of the Missouri above White River, 132 miles higher, and on the west side.

Teton River falls into it.

It is small and heads in the open plains.

Here we met a large band of Sioux, and the second which we have seen, called Tetons.

They are subdivided and stretching on the river near to this place, having reduced the Rockrace and Mandans, and drove them from the country they now occupy.

The Sioux bands rove in the country to the Mississippi.

About 47 miles above the Teton River, the Cheyenne River falls in from the southwest, 4,000 yards wide.

It is navigable to the Black Hills, in which it takes its rise, in the third range.
