National Elk Refuge / Jackson Hole and Greater Yellowstone Visitors Center

The National Elk Refuge is part of the National Wildlife Refuge System, the nation's premier system of public lands and waters set aside to conserve America's fish, wildlife and plants. Since President Theodore Roosevelt designated Florida's Pelican Island as the first wildlife refuge in 1903, the System has grown to more than 150 million acres, 556 national wildlife refuges and other units of the Refuge System, plus 38 wetland management districts. The National Elk Refuge works to provide, preserve, restore, and manage winter habitat for the nationally significant Jackson Elk Herd and habitat for endangered species, birds, fish, and other big game animals, and provide compatible human uses associated with the wildlife and wild lands.

This is also the Jackson Hole and Greater Yellowstone Visitors Center. They are in the same location. Only 1 penny machine. Keep in mind that Jackson is the name of the town and Jackson Hole is the name of the valley. This location is in the town of Jackson.
