What happened after Restaurant: Impossible (Food Network)?
Restaurant: Impossible (Food Network) built its December 10, 2015 special, "Holiday: Impossible," around a different kind of project than the show's usual restaurant rescue. Chew Boom's contemporaneous coverage described chef Robert Irvine and his crew traveling to the Jackson Hole, Wyoming area to renovate facilities used by City Kids Wilderness Project, a Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit that brings at-risk middle- and high-school students from the District to a wilderness mentoring program each summer.
The property involved, Broken Arrow Ranch, is not a commercial restaurant open to the public. According to City Kids Wilderness Project's own website, the ranch is a roughly 62-acre former guest property south of Jackson, near the Hoback River and the Bridger-Teton National Forest, that has served as the nonprofit's summer program base since the 1990s; the organization's site also states that a conservation easement placed on the property in 1997 protects it from future development. The holiday special's renovation work focused, according to the same coverage, on dining and gathering spaces used to feed program participants and staff during the organization's sessions, rather than on a paying customer-facing restaurant.
Because Broken Arrow Ranch functions as a nonprofit camp facility rather than a public restaurant, standard restaurant-tracking sources such as Yelp or local restaurant news do not cover it, and this research did not locate a specific street address that could be independently geocoded; City Kids Wilderness Project's public materials describe the location only in general geographic terms. The organization's website does continue to reference the ranch in connection with recent program summers, and its news section lists posts about camp seasons in the years since the episode aired, but this research could not confirm the ranch's current operating status against a source carrying a clear, current-year date, and no confirmation was found from an outlet independent of the nonprofit itself.
Given the absence of a confirmed address and of independently dated, current-year evidence, this record's operating status is recorded as unconfirmed rather than as either open or closed, notwithstanding the nonprofit's own description of ongoing programming at the site.
