Trail Conditions for 6-12-20
Teton Pass is aiming for its traditional dry trail date of July 4th again this year. Trails are slowly melting and the crews cleared Blacks up to Mt. Elly but found a lot of snow above bridge 4 in the shaded part of the canyon. The trails…

Snow King is completely dry and riding great! The crews cleared some trees off of West Game and Ferrins yesterday, but expect a few more to fall in the burned section of Wilson Canyon and West Game. If you see some new trees down after…

Trail Conditions for 5-22-20
Trails were melting out quickly with temps in the 70's earlier this week but will be slick and muddy with the wet weather lingering through Saturday. The lower parts of some trails on Teton Pass are snow free and are being cleared by the…
Trail Conditions for 5-15-20
A rainy and cool week has slowed the trail drying process. You can get a little farther up in elevation on sunny slopes without trees, but these same sections tend to get more rain and become muddy more quickly than trails under tree cover. …

Trail Conditions for 8-7-20
This week the crew started on the new Game Creek connector trail. This trail will connect the Game Creek trailhead to the S. 89 pathway and will provide safe access from the neighborhoods along S. Hwy. 89 to their public lands without having to take a trip in a vehicle. We hope this will help alleviate some of the parking issues at the Game Creek trailhead. If you are out in the Game Creek area and would like to help we have a cache of tools and instructions at the western end of the trail and you are more than welcome to stop and dig for a little while. I highly suggest mornings and evenings as our crew was baking in the sun last week on the south facing slopes. Our youth crew has one more week of work and we will see if we can finish the stretch on the BTNF. The crew also worked on the Phillip’s Pass and Arrow trails this week cleaning drains and fixing tread. On Thursday they helped the town relocate the Rodeo/Pine Dr. Access trail. The trail was created by users over the last two decades but was actually on private property slightly to the west of the access easement. They brushed back the the larger trees and willows and re-dug it about 8 feet to the east. The Phillip’s Ridge and Snotel trails are opening back up now that the thinning crews have finished chainsawing in that area. I suggest heading up there this weekend as I imagine a byproduct of the thinning is better views of the mountains and valley!
