OVERVIEW
ABOUT
The Cache Creek and Greater Snow King Trail Systems on the Bridger-Teton National Forest have the most dense concentration of trails in Jackson Hole. Running, cycling, hiking, and horseback riding options are just minutes from town.
Be prepared to share-the-trail as the first mile near the trailhead can be crowded at certain times of day. Even with the heavy use this area receives, wildlife is abundant and includes moose, bear, mountain lion, deer and many bird species. Make sure to pay attention to your surroundings and be prepared to encounter wildlife on the trail.

Trail Conditions for 6-21-19
The longest day of the year should be the warmest right? With cool temps the trails are still in great shape and slowly melting out. Most of the south facing trails on Teton Pass are good to go but there are still drifts lingering in the north facing trees. The Teton Freedom Riders are having their first Pass Bash of the year tomorrow so head by the coach for a shuttle ride up the pass. Everything on Snow King is dry and good to go and our ambassadors have been clearing some new downed trees from the winds this week off of Putt Putt and West Game. Our Youth Trail Crew started this week and this hearty bunch had a busy week, unloading the 12,000 lbs of rock from the helicopter drops on Josie’s Ridge, clearing and cleaning drainage on Crater and History, brush cutting for line of sight on KC, and building a turnpike and reroute around a beaver pond on West Game. Look for the crew out on the trails this summer and remember they always love treats after a hard days work.
