About Us
The University of Wyoming-National Park Service (UW-NPS) Research Station is a cooperative effort between the University of Wyoming and the National Park Service. We are one of only 9 field stations in US National Parks and by far the oldest partnership of this kind: in 2018, we celebrated 65 years of cooperation with GTNP.
The 2018 Crew: Gordy Richman, Harold Bergman, Annika Dotson, Michael Dillon, Callahan Jobe, Bonnie Robinson, Jaide Wachtel
