The Scab Creek WSA encompasses 7,636 acres. This area was originally
established and managed as a primitive area in 1975. In April 1985, the Scab
Creek Instant Study Area was proposed by former president Ronald Reagan for
addition to the National Wilderness Preservation System. The Scab Creek WSA
adjoins the Bridger Wilderness in the Bridger-Teton National Forest, which
lies to the east. The WSA offers extraordinary natural wilderness features and
ample opportunity for solitary wilderness experiences.

The CCC Ponds/Pinedale Pathway are a perfect destination for those who enjoy
fishing, hiking, biking, wildlife viewing and cross-country skiing.  
  
The original CCC Ponds were developed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC)
during The Great Depression in an effort by Franklin D. Roosevelt to create
jobs in the 1930s. The work consisted of reforestation, road and park
construction, flood control and beautification projects. The CCC Ponds are an
important historical feature to the Pinedale Area. .  
  
These Ponds were re-constructed during the 1990s and given specific themes to
provide for various wildlife species: the Fish Pond, Duck Pond, Beaver Pond,
and Frog Pond. A walking path was added to enable public access, as well as
the installation of benches, interpretive signs, a warming hut and a parking
lot. Attached to the CCC Ponds parking area is a paved bike path called the
Pinedale Pathway that loops from the parking lot back down into town for a
round trip of about 6 miles. In the winter 3.5 miles of the CCC Pond area and
part of the Pinedale Pathway are groomed for cross- country skiing
opportunities.
