Togwotee Pass
On U.S. Highway 287/89 between Moran Junction & Dubois

Captain William Jones, Army Corps of Engineers, named Togwotee Pass in 1873 in honor of his Shoshone Indian guide. Togwotee (pronounced toe-go-tee) was a Sheepeater Indian who aligned himself with Chief Washakie. Jones’ mission was to find passage to Yellowstone National Park from the Wind River-Bighorn watersheds.
