Name Origin

Stephen Leek was a cattle rancher, conservationist and entrepreneur. He settled in the south part of the Jackson Hole valley in the 1880s. Before 1900, he established Leek's "clubhouse" on the north end of Leigh Lake and then Leek's Camp on the east shore of Jackson Lake as hunting and fishing camps. Later, Leek took photographs of starving and dying elk during the winter of 1908-09. He used these images in lectures, articles and tours to help publicize the dilemma. In 1912, Congress established the National Elk Refuge to provide wintering grounds for elk.
