NY TImes: How the West Won Me.

“In Dubois, we live in the high (7,050 feet) alpine desert. Our low, wide house is surrounded by red-painted badlands on one side and the Wind River and its snow-capped mountain range on the other. Like the scenery, the sound track is right out of a John Ford movie: whistling wind, bawling cattle and neighing horses (our subdivision is zoned for equines). Shopping or any sort of living it up requires a drive of seven to 80 miles on Route 26, a section of which is Ramshorn Street, our town’s main drag.” They’s gonna be burning a crapload of wood to keep that huge building envelop warm in the winter ... and is that one of those industrial heaters hanging from the ceiling there?
