LaBarge Creek Road will temporarily close for culvert replacement
by Bridger-Teton National Forest
August 13, 2019

The Bridger-Teton National Forest will temporarily close LaBarge Creek road to complete a culvert replacement in mid-August.

As part of a multi-year project to improve road infrastructure and stream passage for native Colorado River Cutthroat Trout in the LaBarge Creek drainage, culvert replacement construction will occur on Little Clear Creek on the Kemmerer Ranger District. This work will connect two miles of currently inaccessible spawning and rearing habitat, as well as reduce the risk of future road failures.

A temporary road closure in the LaBarge drainage will occur during the week of August 19. During that week, LaBarge Creek Road (FS 10138) will be closed for one day, but will not remain closed overnight.

Travelers in the LaBarge headwaters should consider alternative routes, including access over Sheep Pass via the Smiths Fork Road (FS 10072) or access from the Tri-Basin area along Greys River Road (FS 10138). It is important to be aware that construction traffic throughout the week could slow travel in these areas.

The Kemmerer Ranger District would like to offer thanks in advance for cooperation during this important work. Please contact Fish Biologist, Kate Olsen, with further questions at kate.h.olsen@usda.gov or 307-367-5751.
