The Historic DC Bar Guest Ranch is located southeast of Jackson Hole Wyoming about 35 miles as the crow flies. Located where three mountain ranges come together, the scenery is breathtaking. The DC Bar Guest Ranch is also home to Bridger Wilderness Outfitters, our guide service business.

The Ranch is located in the lower end of the Gros Ventre Mountains about a mile up from the Green River with views of the rugged peaks of the Wind River Range and the Bridger Wilderness Area. This Historic Ranch sits at 8,000 feet in elevation in beautiful alpine meadows where the Aspen and the Pines come together. We are bordered on two sides by the country’s oldest and largest national forest, the Bridger-Teton. Activities at the ranch are very diverse with everything from river float fishing trips, Pack Trips into the Wilderness, Winter Snowmobiling, Hunting...

We are looking for seasonal staff to work as cooks, housekeepers, and wilderness guides. Also, For about 20 years now we have been running an intensive 4 week Outfitter and Guide school where we teach the outdoor skills needed to become a top quality wilderness guide.
