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! 🚵♀️

@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 7-1-22
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesThis week the wildflowers are peaking on the Snow King Trails. We did more work in West Game and Wilson Canyon with the MCC crew as well as some work on the Ridge trail. We finished the last section of the S 89 trail with some great volunteers from a YMCA camp and then we opened the Skyline trail! We cleared 25 trees before we ran out of gas so there are 6 trees still down on the eastern side that we will go back and get tomorrow. It should be a beautiful weekend out on the trails so get out and enjoy!
Trail Conditions for 6-24-22
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesAnother busy week on the trails. We hired a crew from the Montana Conservation Corp who are helping to get Teton Pass open. We cleared down Black Canyon and History Trail and will be hitting Ski Lake and Phillip’s Pass this weekend. Black Canyon had just a little bit of snow left near the summit of Mt. Elly but was in great shape otherwise. We also cleared some of the user created trails in the nordic corridors at the base of Black Canyon. What we are calling the OPR Loops will be reviewed by the USFS this winter to see about adopting them onto the trail system, but in the meantime they make a nice quiet series of loops on relatively flat terrain. We then switched gears and hit the infestation of musk thistle in Game Creek to prevent it from spreading further onto the forest. We also had a great group of volunteers from the Teton Trail Runners who helped us install some stump seats at the Ferrins saddle for a well deserved rest after that climb. Finally we cleared some newly blown down trees on West Game, Wilson Canyon, and on the Cache Creek Road. If you see any new trees down after a wind storm use the trail maintenance request button to let us know about them and we will get out to clear them. Enjoy the warm temps and clear trails this weekend!
Trail Conditions for 6-17-22
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesAnother busy week on trails, the crew cleared Arrow, Snotel, Ridge, and upper Phillip’s Canyon so those should be good to go for the weekend with minimal snow left in a few spots. We will be up working on Ski Lake, Phillip’s Pass, and upper Black Canyon next week. We installed a few more bike racks at trailheads and pathway destinations and worked with a great volunteer groups from the Teton Science School. They installed some stump seats at the top of Josies for people to take a well deserved break with a view. Fun fact since 2003 Friends of Pathways has hosted 65,000 hours of volunteers focused on the trail system. Thats the equivalent the USFS hiring an additional 63 seasonal trail crew members. So a huge thanks to groups like TSS and other local organizations that come out to help on trails, we couldn’t do it without you!
Trail Conditions for 6-10-22
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesWe are still waiting on the upper ridges of Teton Pass to dry out but the rest of the trail system is in great shape after some sunny weather. This week we did a little tree clearing, cleaned up the Blair Dr. Bike Skills Park, and started installing bike racks at some of the busiest trailheads. We hope the racks will give people another option to bike to the trailhead and to go for a hike or run or ski without having to drive their car. Enjoy a sunny weekend and if you see any downed tree on the trails use the Trail Maintenance Request button at the top of the page to let us know and we can get out to clear it right away!
Trail Conditions for 6-3-22
News & Announcements, Trail UpdatesThe Cache Game trail system is completely dry and cleared of trees! We cleared 32 trees off of Wilson Canyon and West Game this week and everything in now open and dry with the exception of the Skyline trail which is closed until July 1 for wildlife. We also cleared 24 trees off of Phillip’s Canyon and Phillip’s Ridge and the lower portions of those trails are a great out and back option. Similarly the lower portions of Blacks, Big Rocks, Crater, and History are good options this weekend. Also Munger Mountain is beautiful right now with the aspens starting to bud in a super bright green. Hopefully everyone can get out and find some sunny windows to enjoy the trails this weekend!
