POWELL — Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has resulted in the loss of more than four million chickens and Europe’s largest egg production facility in southern Ukraine, as well as up to 6.9 million acres of cropland, according to NASA Harvest. Now, in an effort to get agricultural production back up and running, a Park County company founded by a Cody entrepreneur, and backed by a prominent American politician and two Ukrainian entrepreneurs, wants to assist in bringing agricultural businesses back online. To do that they need energy. The disruption...
POWELL - Having previously toured Yellowstone National Park in summer numerous times, Will Schnorr was excited to schedule a business trip to the region last week.

He was lucky, arriving just after the park opened for over-snow travel Dec. 15. He was hoping to get through the East Entrance; the closest to his business call. The West Entrance has the most over-snow...
POWELL — Electrically stunned trout rolled to the top of the water, revealing their white underbellies, while volunteers hoping to save Wyoming’s prized game fish sloshed through the muddy, receding pools of the Cody Canal to scoop them up as fast as possible.

The Cody resident served in the Wyoming House of Representatives from 1965 to 1977 and was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1978. Simpson held several leadership...
POWELL - Native fish populations in Yellowstone Lake have been jeopardized since fisheries biologists found lake trout illegally introduced in 1994. The process of removing the invasive species has cost tens of millions, while labor-intensive methods have evolved. As the park makes headway mitigating the effects of lake trout, two more species have recently caused concern in the fight to protect Yellowstone Cutthroat trout. Tuesday evening, the East Yellowstone chapter of Trout Unlimited...
