The Salt River defines the setting of Afton — flowing through Star Valley, it helped create a broad agricultural floor beneath the Salt River Range. Founded in 1885 by Latter-day Saint settlers, Afton remains a principal community in this western Wyoming valley near the Idaho border. Four monumental arches made from elk antlers stand at central intersections; the Main Street arch is billed as the world’s largest elk-antler arch. Nearby, Intermittent Spring is a cold-water spring known for a flow that repeatedly starts and stops.
