Water protection group drops the last challenge to a temporary glamping operation on state land near Teton Village on Thursday. Protect Our Water Jackson Hole filed papers with the Wyoming Environmental Quality Council withdrawing its appeal of a controversial sewage system permit allowing the canvas-dome hotel, owned by Basecamp Hospitality and known as Tammah, to operate a septic tank and leach field at the headwaters of troubled Fish Creek. The withdrawal came after the Supreme Court ruled in April that the group could not sue to rescind the permit because they didn’t have adequate standing.
