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.”

Trail Conditions for 6-29-18
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesThis 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 us move over 3000 pounds of lumber a mile up the trail to our next bridge sites. We certainly couldn’t do all the projects on the forest each summer without help from amazing volunteers like them! The crews also became trained for our Citizen Science project with Wildflower Watch, Nature Mapping JH and the BTNF. This summer they will help record plant, animal, and recreation data in Cache Creek as part of an ongoing study there. They also cleared a few dozen trees off of the upper reaches of trail on Pass Ridge. The next spot to hit will be the Skyline Trail on Monday! We are excited to get up there after it opens up on Sunday and we hope you go up for an adventure as well!
Trail Conditions for 6-22-18
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesThe 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 on Putt Putt in a torrential hail storm but on the plus side it was easy to see the drainage dips and water bars working. They spent the rest of the week working on bridges on the History Trail. We are up to 4 bridges built with a few approaches left to fill in with gravel. Next week we have 2 volunteer groups from TSS and the Teton Trail Runners to help us move lumber into the woods for the next bridges. We also looked at a reroute on the Big Munger Trail with the USFS and DIRT. They have a grant to bring severely eroded sections of that trail up to standards and when it is done it should make for a much more enjoyable experience for all trail users. I would recommend that as the trail of the week as the views are stunning and the wildflowers are in full bloom right now!

News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesThanks to everybody who came out to help on National Trails Day last Saturday! We got a big head start on the bridge project on Teton Pass, moved ~8,000 pounds of lumber, rerouted a wet section of the History trail, cleaned all the water bars on Big Rocks, and finished the first bridge on Big Rocks in under 3 hours. Crews were out clearing trees and fixing drainage problems on Snow King and Teton Pass this week. The Arrow trail has maybe 500 feet of snow left, mostly in shaded drifts in the trees but is passable and Phillips Canyon is clear as well. You can also link Arrow to the BPA road to bypass the Snotel and paraglider launch area to link up with the Ridge trail which is clear below 2 towers and the switchbacks. Crews will clear the last few trees off of Snotel and Ridge next week. Upper History is good to go as well and now is a great time to hike before the nettle grows 6 feet tall. One more heads up for the bottom of the Shade Monkey trail at Snow King. The condo construction and magic carpet location have led to the bottom 2 corners being graded over. This will be fixed sometime in June after the construction fence is moved back to the property line and the magic carpet is moved to the west. Enjoy the weekend!
Trail Conditions for 6-1-18
News & Announcements, Trail Updates, UncategorizedSnow King and Munger trails are good to go and Teton Pass is slowly but surely melting out. The TFR trails on the south side of the pass are in pretty good shape and should be riding nicely for their Pass Bash on Saturday. Everything else is probably still and out and back exploration from the bottom until you hit the snow line. The one exception may be the Ridge trail which you can link from the Phillip’s trailhead to Fish Creek road by using portions of the BPA powerline road that tends to melt out quicker than the shaded trail around the Snotel section. On Saturday you should start your day with bagels and coffee and at the base of Old Pass Road and then stay and help us build some new bridges with the USFS for National Trails Day. We will finish up with lunch and beverages and then you can continue on to the Pass Bash and make a full day of supporting and enjoying the trails!
