Dubois is a town in Fremont County, Wyoming, United States. The population was 971 at the 2010 census, although this nearly doubles in the summer with many part-time residents.

Quote:

The original residents of Dubois, Wyoming wanted to name the town Never Sweat. However, the postal service found the name unacceptable, so it endowed the town with the name Dubois after Fred Dubois, an Idaho senator at the time. In protest, the citizens of Dubois rejected the French pronunciation, instead opting for Du, with u as in "Sue"; bois, with oi as in "voice". The accent is on the first syllable.

Fred Thomas Dubois (May 29, 1851 – February 14, 1930) was a controversial American politician from Idaho who served two terms in the United States Senate. He was best known for his opposition to the gold standard and his efforts to disenfranchise Mormon voters.

In the landscape surrounding Dubois are visible the remains of many wood flumes constructed by the tie hacks who provided the railroad ties that helped to develop the American West. These Scandinavian immigrants cut logs into ties and sent these via the flumes to the Wind River where they floated to Riverton, about 70 miles east, for processing.

The Dubois Museum preserves and interprets the natural and social history of the Upper Wind River Valley as the National Bighorn Sheep Interpretive Center focuses on public education about the biology and habitat of the Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep with specific focus on the currently largest herd of Rocky Mountain Bighorn sheep in the coterminous United States that winter in the Whiskey Basin of Whiskey Mountain adjacent to the Fitzpatrick Wilderness[15] in the Shoshone National Forest. The Center preserves and interprets the relationships of the Bighorn sheep.

Wyoming seems really rural, Montana too. I have two family members in Montana now. Wyoming though is home to Kanye West sometimes I think. Wonder if he lives by Dubois.

Yeah, he bought property in Jackson Hole, which is down the mountain from Dubois. Sandra Bullock and Harrison Ford own homes there too. That's where I was born, because Dubois doesn't have a hospital lol.

The town I currently live in is really small like 4000 and has no hospital, but there is a health clinic 15 mins down the road :o:

I'd ask if you're the one with the double chin but either way the answer is yes.
