 The White Grass is significant along with the JY and Bar B C as one of the first dude ranching operations in Jackson Hole.After Hammond and Bispham converted it from a working ranch to a dude ranch, control passed to Hammond's son Frank Galey who operated it until his death in 1985, the longest-active dude ranch in Jackson Hole.In 2016, the White Grass was reopened as home to the Western Center for Historic Preservation after a nearly $3 million restoration project funded by the National Park Service and the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
