π¨ Pathway closure near Gregory Lane!π¨ Starting Monday, September 29, 2025
The Town of Jackson and Evans Construction will be installing stormwater infrastructure and preparing the ground surface for roadway, curb and sidewalk near the crossing of the bike/pedestrian pathway on Gregory Lane.
A pathway closure and detour is necessary to route pathway users around the construction zone.
Plan on this pathway closure to begin today, Monday, September 29, 2025 and remain as necessary while crews install new utilities and road surface features.
Expect βPathway Closedβ and detour signage routing cyclists/pedestrians around the construction zone.
Signage will be placed at the pathway junction south of the tunnel under S. HWY 89, at the junction adjacent to the Middle School ball fields, and other common access locations.
Please obey the closure and detour signage and plan a little extra time on your bike/walk commute around this area.
We are mourning the loss of former FOP employee and dear friend, Jay Pistono. An amazing diplomat for responsible recreation and one of the friendliest people on the planet. Teton Pass won`t be the same without you Jay - RIP
UPDATE - the closure has been extended to include Thursday September 18, and Friday September 19!
π¨ The portion of the pathway between Russ Garaman Park and US89 will temporarily close between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 16, and Wednesday, Sept. 17. The closure allows pedestrians and bikers to access the pathway during morning and afternoon hours, per Parks & Rec. Dates and times are subject to change due to weather or unforeseen circumstances. π¨

@cfjacksonhole #oldbills2025
We met up with Sergeant Traphagan this week to hear about the best ways to stay safe as we all transition into the school year. His advice:
π΄πΌββοΈπ¨ Know and obey the speed limit
π STOP at stop signs
π Signal your intent
If we all follow these rules of the road, we can make it through the school year without incident! Thanks to @jhpolicedepartment for these safety tips!
π¨π¦Ί π§ A new pathway roundabout is being installed today 8/28/25 at the Stilson parking lot - near the tunnel that passes under Hwy 390. Expect delays! If you arrive here during construction, we will walk you around the construction zone. @tetonparksandrec @tetoncounty @townofjacksonwy
Friends of Pathways here, bringing you more Back to School safety pointers!
π¦When you are feeling unsure of what to do at an intersection, you always have the option to dismount your bike, become a pedestrian, and safely walk your bike across the crosswalk
π΅ Know that sidewalks are an option when you feel unsafe in the road, especially for younger kids on their way to and from school!
π Wearing bright colors can help you stay more visible to other bikers and drivers on the road. Wearing reflective materials can also help increase your visibility to other road users
Happy Back to School day to all those who celebrate! ππ΄ββοΈ
As you prepare to make biking to school part of your daily commute, here are some pointers for you and your family!
π§ Safety check your bike before leaving the house. Make sure brakes are working properly
π§₯ Dress appropriately for the cool morning weather and wear a helmet
π Plan your route to school with your family- the safest routes will be along the pathways
Safe and happy biking to school! β¨

Youth Trail Crew Update
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesThe Friends of Pathways Youth Trail Crew has been hard at work this summer on projects on around the Bridge-Teton National Forest. Β They have installed several dozen rock steps and drainage features on Josie’s Ridge and the Woods Canyon trails, built the new Nelson Knoll trail and installed a new bench at the overlook, improved the Ski Lake trail above the lake to the ridge line, dug parts of the new Skyline Trail, pulled weeds in Game Creek, mapped weeds and trail problems on the East Table Creek trail, moved several tons of gravel to turnpikes on the Big Rocks trail, and cleaned hundreds of drainage features and improved line of sight on almost all of the trails in the front country system. Β A big thanks to them for their hard work and to Mountain Khakis for supplying them all with uniforms for the summer. Β Look for them out on the trails!
FOLLOW THE YOUTH TRAIL CREW! @FriendsOfPathways on InstragramΒ We’ll Be Taking An In-Depth Look at the #YouthTrailCrew During Their Last Week of the Summer!

Β The BTNF and FOP Youth Crew cleared the first 1.5 miles from the Cache Game divideΒ this weekΒ and the local crew from DIRT will begin building from the eastern end of the trail next week. Β Thanks to everyone who has donated time, money, and sweat equity to this project, it is great to see the community come together and invest in a trail that can be enjoyed by all for years to come. Β Get out this weekend and explore the new views and wildflowers on the Skyline Trail.
Trail Conditions for 6-27-16
Trail UpdatesWith all of the trails open now we wanted to focus on a new issue on the forest – E Bikes. Β Currently E Bikes are not allowed on any trails in the Snow King or Teton Pass areas but there are a few areas where you can ride them. Β Munger Mountain is open to motorized vehicle from July 1 to Sept 9, there is a new series of loops going in at Mosquito Creek that are designed for motorized singletrack, and the Horsetail and Bubba’s Trails near slide lake allow motorcycles and E Bikes. Β Please take the time to read the Bridger-Teton press release at the link below and use E Bikes only on designated trails.
