Friends of Pathways has a formal partnership with the USFS to collaborate on design, construction and stewardship of local trails for all users – hike, bike, horse, and ski. We’re committed to providing easy year round access to trails in order to maintain our high quality of life in Jackson Hole.
Skip the traffic and enjoy the ride over to The Center for the Arts, for Bike to Work Wednesday, 7:30-9:00 am! This week we are partnering with @cowboycoffeeco, @thecenterjh and @891khol
See y’all there! 🤠☕️🪩✨🚲🥐
We are about 2 weeks ahead of schedule on trail melting out this year. The old bet was everything would be snow free by July 4th but there are only a few passable snow drifts left on the upper parts of Teton Pass. The trail should be very inviting this weekend with cooler temps and a little rain this morning to knock the dust down. This week crews cleared upper Ski Lake, Phillip’s Pass, and upper Black Canyon, treated weeds at Munger, replaced some pathway counters, surveyed some new connector trails, dug drainage on Black Canyon, and string trimmed around the trailheads. Get out there and enjoy!

Good news! The pathway along North Highway 89 opens Saturday, April 19! This opening is earlier than the usual opening of April 30. Sweet!
In coordination with U.S. Fish and Wildlife, Teton County/Jackson Parks and Recreation is sweeping and cleaning the pathway north of Jackson adjacent to Highway 89 today to ensure the pathway is clear of debris before it opens for users on Saturday, April 19.
As wildlife continues to migrate from the National Elk Refuge, please take caution when using the pathway and give wildlife the right-of-way.
The Teton Park Road is plowed and ready for joggers, cyclists and even rollerbladers. People can enjoy 14 miles of snow-free pavement from Taggart Lake Trailhead to Signal Mountain Lodge, all without worrying about traffic until May 1.
@yellowstonenps enthusiasts have their chance to enjoy car-free roads too. Nearly 50 miles of road between the west entrance in West Yellowstone and the north entrance in Gardiner opened to non-motorized travel on April 5.
Enjoy!
✌️ ❤️ 🚲

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. 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. A big thanks to them for their hard work and to Mountain Khakis for supplying them all with uniforms for the summer. Look for them out on the trails!
FOLLOW THE YOUTH TRAIL CREW! @FriendsOfPathways on Instragram We’ll Be Taking An In-Depth Look at the #YouthTrailCrew During Their Last Week of the Summer!
Skyline Trail Update
News & Announcements, Trail Updates2 Miles of the Skyline Trail are Finished! To date we have had 159 volunteers and 38 dedicated trail crew members from FOP, the BTNF, SCA, and MCC help to build the trail. The Montana Conservation Corp is currently camped on the ridge and will be building the middle section over the next 5 weeks. The BTNF and FOP Youth Crew cleared the first 1.5 miles from the Cache Game divide this week and the local crew from DIRT will begin building from the eastern end of the trail next week. 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. 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. 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. 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. Please take the time to read the Bridger-Teton press release at the link below and use E Bikes only on designated trails.

Trail Conditions for 6-17-16
Trail UpdatesThe trails are open! Teton Pass, Munger, and Snow King trails are melted out and have been cleared and are in great shape. Thanks to the USFS Trail Crew, the FOP Ambassadors, and the Youth Trail Crew for all of their hard work. Also check out the improved trails at the Nelson Dr. trailhead. The Western Governors helped rebuild the trail to Nelson Knob and the Youth Crew improved the Woods Canyon trail and added rock steps and drainage. They also added drainage to the Black Canyon trail and the Wilson Canyon trail and cut back the willows in the upper meadow so those 2 trails should be at the top of your list for a weekends adventure!
Trail Conditions for 6-10-16
Trail UpdatesTeton Pass trails all almost fully dry! Get out this weekend and check out the Arrow, Ridge, Snotel, History, Phillip’s Pass, and Ski Lake Trails which have only a few small snow patches remaining. Everything has been cleared of trees but if you find any new trees down after the storms this week let us know though social media or #jhtrails and we will get the crews out to clear them!
