   Carrying the Legacy Forward at Mountain Range RV Park

   In this episode of Lander Biz we take a field trip to Mountain Range RV Park near Lander to meet the park’s new owners, Chris and Aubrey. The couple shares how a July trip helped lead them to the property, and why the Lander area felt like such a natural fit. For Chris, the Wind River Mountains already held a special place in his heart after living in Riverton back in 1983 and 1984. Now, he and Aubrey are beginning a new chapter in a place known for its peaceful setting, wide-open views and direct look toward Sinks Canyon. Mountain Range RV Park offers a quiet, pet-friendly stay just outside of town, with beautiful scenery and easy access to everything Lander has to offer. Chris and Aubrey talk about the upgrades they are making to better serve today’s RV travelers, including expanded capacity, larger sites, mostly pull-through spaces and 20/30/50-amp hookups. The park is growing to include 32 sites, with 11 new larger sites designed to accommodate modern RVs. A special part of this story is honoring the family/families, who previously owned the park and helped shape it into the beautiful, welcoming place it is today. Their vision, care and dedication paved the way for Mountain Range RV Park to become a memorable stop for travelers and a special piece of the Lander community. Chris and Aubrey are grateful to carry that legacy forward while adding their own dreams and improvements for the future. Listen to this episode of Lander Biz for a closer look at Mountain Range RV Park, its history, its next chapter and the people helping keep its legacy alive.
