Alpine: US 89 at - Junction - South
Few places in western Wyoming have a history as closely tied to Star Valley’s ranching economy as Alpine. The town stands at the northern end of the valley, near the confluence of the Salt River and Snake River. From here, the Snake River continues through a canyon toward Jackson Hole, while the Salt River drains the broad agricultural valley to the south. US 89 and US 26 make Alpine an important road junction for travel between Star Valley, eastern Idaho and the Jackson area. Low-rise businesses and homes sit beside open pastureland, backed by wooded mountain slopes. Ranching remains part of Alpine’s local identity, alongside tourism and recreation around the nearby Palisades Reservoir.

Among Wyoming’s mountain communities, Alpine stands out for the confluence of the Snake, Salt and Greys rivers near Palisades Reservoir. The town occupies the northern end of Star Valley, where U.S. routes 89 and 26 follow river corridors linking the area with Jackson Hole and eastern Idaho. Forested slopes of Bridger-Teton National Forest rise to the east, while the reservoir and Snake River Canyon draw boaters, anglers and rafters. Alpine belongs to a region shaped by late-19th-century Latter-day Saint settlement, a legacy shared by many of Star Valley’s small towns.

Wyoming stretches from the Montana border to its frontiers with Colorado and Utah, encompassing the high Rockies, broad basins, and Great Plains. The Continental Divide crosses the state, while the Wind River and Bighorn River drain contrasting sides of its interior. In the northwest, Yellowstone National Park—established in 1872 as the world’s first national park—and Grand Teton National Park place geothermal country and sharp mountain relief at the centre of Wyoming’s identity. Ranching remains integral to its open-country culture, alongside communities shaped by railroads, energy, and outdoor travel.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
