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.
🚨 Pathway closure near Gregory Lane!🚨 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 “Pathway Closed” 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!
🚨 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. 🚨
Second Pass Bash of the summer is coming up! Help us close out summer the right way! 🤙🏼
On Saturday, September 20th we’ll have free shuttles from 11am-3pm, raffle prizes, free bike demos, free bike tunes, and more! 🚵♀️

We’ll see you out there this Saturday, booth 106! Come say hi! 🚵♂️
@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:
🚴🏼♀️💨 Know and obey the speed limit
🛑 STOP at stop signs
👈 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!
🚨🦺 🚧 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!
🚦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
🚵 Know that sidewalks are an option when you feel unsafe in the road, especially for younger kids on their way to and from school!
👕 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! 🍎🚴♂️
As you prepare to make biking to school part of your daily commute, here are some pointers for you and your family!
🔧 Safety check your bike before leaving the house. Make sure brakes are working properly
🧥 Dress appropriately for the cool morning weather and wear a helmet
📍 Plan your route to school with your family- the safest routes will be along the pathways
Safe and happy biking to school! ✨

Trail Conditions for 5-26-23
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesThe trails in the Cache-Game area are almost totally snow free with just a few drifts lingering on the north side of the Cache-Game divide and the Ferrin’s saddle. The 5 way meadows in upper Wilson Canyon are also pretty wet with spring runoff. There are still some trees down in the burn area on the Wilson Canyon and West Game trails that we will get cleared next week. The trails are holding up well but need a little longer to dry out after it rains as the ground is still saturated from the snow melt. I usually say wait until the streets in town are dry but maybe add an hour to that until we get into a high pressure system. The crews also finished clearing Munger Mountain this week and will start pushing up from the base of Teton Pass next week. If you are out exploring this weekend and see any trees down send us a trail maintenance request and we will get them asap. If you are going to be around next weekend come out from 9-12 on Saturday June 3rd for National Trails Day. We will be building singletrack across Snow King to get the Sink or Swim trail off of the shared section of road. Meet at the base of the Rafferty lift for bagels and coffee and a free ride up to help us dig.
Trail Conditions for 5-19-23
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesMore trails are opening up with the warmer temps. Sink or Swim is clear from Josies to Ferrins with just the lingering snow in the ski area to cross. The Sidewalk to Wiggle to Putt Putt loop is popular as always and the first part of Hagen and lower Ferrins is dry as well. Crystal Butte and Woods Canyon are snow free up to around 7600 feet and the Canyons south of town are similar. The lower Munger trails are also almost good to go with a few lingering snow patches on Wally World, but the Big Munger Loop is still holding a lot of snow. All in all a good week of clearing and trail work with the FOP crew, the BTNF crew, and a great volunteer group of 70 6th graders from the Salt Lake area helping us to clean up the Cache Creek area. Have a great weekend out on the trails!
Trail Conditions for 5-12-23
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesA few more trail options are dry for this weekend. The lower trails on the Josie’s Ridge side are almost 100% snow free and should make for some good loop options. Josie’s Ridge was snow free up to the old snag tree and Sink or Swim was clear until you get closer to the Snow King ski area. Putt Putt and Woods Canyon were good from the Nelson Dr. over to the Cache Creek trailhead, and the Sidewalk trail was clear up to around the Wiggle. The first mile or so of Game Creek above the gate is good too. In general head out and explore and if you are on dry dirt or snow you are good to go, but avoid pushing further if you are getting muddy or having to walk off trail to avoid mud and snow. Enjoy the sunshine and look for the crews out on the trails working hard!
Trail Conditions 5-5-23
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesThe trails are still pretty muddy and snow covered this week. Your best bet is to head south of town on the trails between Adam’s Canyon and Game Creek and explore some up the canyons til you find mud or start postholing through the snow. Crystal Lite and Crystal Butte are also good options with just a few drifts on the corners. Another good easy outing is the old horse trail along the Wilson Centennial pathway. It parallels the pathway from Wilson to Stilson and is a good option for a ride with little ones on strider bikes, a run off of the pavement, or a dog walk when then pathway is busy. The FOP and BTNF crews start next week so we will be out poking around and seeing what trails are dry and clearing any down trees. If you see a tree across the trail or any other problem use the Trail Maintenance Request button on our page and let us know where the tree was, how big it is, and if it is a big mess with lots of branches etc.
Trail Conditions 4-28-23
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesFor the first trail report of the season there is not much to report. Lots of snow still melting and a few dry trails down south of town between Adam’s Canyon and Game Creek. If you’re are really itching for dry dirt head down that way and link up to the A&W trail at the junction with the S 89 pathway near Rafter J and use the underpass to climb up to Adam’s Canyon Dr. and head south on the A&W trail over to the Wilson Canyon trailhead. This section is outside of the Winter Wildlife Closures which are still in effect until Monday May 1. You can then cross the highway to the S 89 pathway and head south along the S 89 Singletrack to the Game Creek tunnel. There you can hop on the Game Creek trail and go up to the trailhead and explore a bit farther to see how much snow has melted above the gate. If you are out skinning and exploring other areas this weekend remember to obey the Winter Wildlife Closures and Dog Leash Zones and hopefully there will be some more dry trail by next weekend.
