Winter Trails Day 2024 - Friends of Pathways

Friends of Pathways celebrates Winter Trails Day
with free fat bike and ski demos

Jackson, Wyo. – Friends of Pathways invites you to celebrate access to your public lands during Winter Trails Day on Saturday, Feb. 24, 2024, with free fat bike, Nordic ski, and backcountry ski demos at two popular trailheads in Teton County – Teton Pass and Cache Creek.

Winter Trails Day kicks off Saturday, Feb. 24, 2024 at 9 a.m. at the top of Teton Pass with free backcountry demos offered by Hoback Sports until noon. To help get you up and down the pass, and to help reduce traffic congestion, Teton Backcounty Alliance will provide a free shuttle from Stilson Lot, Old Pass Road, and Coal Creek. The shuttle will pick up and drop people off at Stilson Lot, Old Pass Road, top of Teton Pass, and Coal Creek from 8:30 a.m. to 3:40 p.m. – check www.tetonbackcountryalliance.org/shuttle for a specific shuttle schedule. And to help keep everyone safe, Teton County Search and Rescue will be at the top of the pass to answer any questions about backcountry safety.

Friends of Pathways grooms over 12 miles of winter singletrack in Cache Creek; come ride it Saturday from noon to 3 p.m. with free fat bike demos from Wheel Wranglers and Teton Mountain Bike Tours. It’s a great opportunity to try out a new bike or try fat biking for the first time.

Want to skate ski or classic Nordic ski? Skinny Skis and JD High Country Outfitters will have their Nordic demo fleets available for free! PAWS and JH Nordic will also be there to answer questions about responsible recreation on our public lands.

At each location Friends of Pathways will have free hot cocoa, cookies, and plenty of information on our winter trails. Bring your friends and family, and come ski and bike with us and your community during Winter Trails Day.

This event is made possible in part thanks to the Jackson Hole Travel and Tourism Board.

Don’t put away your bike just yet!

The first phase of the Wilson to Stilson Pathway and Wilson School Underpass will be open beginning tomorrow Saturday, November 4, 2023.

Phase 1 of the Wilson to Stilson Pathway begins at the Stilson Transit Center and ends at the Teton Raptor Center. The pathway includes the Wilson School Underpass. Phase 2, which consists of the Fish Creek Pathway Bridge over the creek, is expected to be completed in early June 2024.

“We are thrilled to open the completed Wilson to Stilson pathway, a Teton BUILD Grant project, and the Wilson School Underpass,” says Teton County Public Works Director Heather Overholser. “These projects are the result of years of work by many community members and partners across the county, who acknowledge the importance our pathway system plays in our transportation goals.”

“Pathways play a key role in how we safely and efficiently move around our neighborhoods and valley,” says Pathways and Trails Coordinator Brian Schilling. “Families and individuals on the south side of Highway 22 have been championing this critical connection for years. We look forward to seeing people of all ages enjoying the pathway this weekend as they move around Wilson and the greater pathway system.”
