They cast no votes. They allocate no funding. They don’t even belong to the same state, let alone the same governing body. So they just sit down and ponder the most basic challenges they all face: growth, housing, transportation, et cetera. And they decide that such challenges call for cross-border cooperation.

Johnson suggested the most important step is simply for leaders in the two counties to get to know each other better. And that could expand even farther within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, which reaches into other communities in Wyoming, Idaho and Montana.
