Ahh the winter that keeps on giving, we are still about a month behind last year in the trails drying out around the valley. With the snow last night and rain in the forecast the upper elevations that were getting dry are pretty slimy and slick. There may be some opportunities to get out during […]
There are a few more dry trails but with 10 days of rain in the forecast be responsible when choosing to go out. The rule I like to follow is wait for the roads to dry in town before venturing out onto trails to avoid damaging them while its too muddy. That being said the […]
After some MORE snow this week the trails are still drying out. The Sidewalk to Wiggle to Putt Putt loop will be the hot spot this weekend. The crew cleared some trees and chopped up a few snow drifts this week and it is about 99% dry with one or two big drifts lingering in […]
After a snowy week we finally got some sunshine today and have a few more trails open and dry that were in the winter wildlife closure zones that opened up on Wednesday. Crystal Lite and Crystal Butte are both good options in the sun as are the first parts of Putt Putt and the Sidewalk. […]
So the record February snows set trail season back a bit this year. The only things that are dry on the national forest at the moment are the Nelson Knoll Loop, and the first mile or so of Game Creek. In some of the shadier areas you can hike and post-hole on snow but please […]

The crew has had a whirlwind couple of weeks out on the trails. They finished four bridges in Black Canyon and one in Phillip’s Canyon with the help of Carney Logan and Burke Architects who had 30 volunteers haul lumber and rocks to finish the bridge just this morning. The style of bridge we are […]
This week crews finished up 2 bridges on the History Trail, cleared History, Wilson, West Game, Blacks, worked with volunteers to move lumber to bridge sites, and got trained with Wildflower Watch and Nature Mapping JH. We had 2 awesome volunteer groups from the Teton Science School and from the Teton Trail Runners who helped […]
The front country trails are in prime summer shape right now! Teton Pass has only a few lingering snow drifts which are quickly melting and the rain this week has kept the dust down and the trails in great shape. The Youth Trail Crew started this week and had a fun first day clearing drains […]

The first phase of the Wilson to Stilson Pathway and Wilson School Underpass will be open beginning tomorrow Saturday, November 4, 2023.
Phase 1 of the Wilson to Stilson Pathway begins at the Stilson Transit Center and ends at the Teton Raptor Center. The pathway includes the Wilson School Underpass. Phase 2, which consists of the Fish Creek Pathway Bridge over the creek, is expected to be completed in early June 2024.
“We are thrilled to open the completed Wilson to Stilson pathway, a Teton BUILD Grant project, and the Wilson School Underpass,” says Teton County Public Works Director Heather Overholser. “These projects are the result of years of work by many community members and partners across the county, who acknowledge the importance our pathway system plays in our transportation goals.”
“Pathways play a key role in how we safely and efficiently move around our neighborhoods and valley,” says Pathways and Trails Coordinator Brian Schilling. “Families and individuals on the south side of Highway 22 have been championing this critical connection for years. We look forward to seeing people of all ages enjoying the pathway this weekend as they move around Wilson and the greater pathway system.”
