05/16/12 – Gathering to Celebrate Trails

Words and Photography By: Kevin Wittig

Snow King Resort hosted Friends of the Pathways, Bridger Teton National Forest, and a variety of community organizations, including The Mountain Pulse, at the annual Party for the Trails. The informative evening celebrated the incredible trail network in Jackson Hole and Teton Valley while also raising awareness of current projects and the organizations working hard to improve access and knowledge of trails in the Greater Teton Region.

A number of speakers, including Tim Ferris of the forest service trail crew and Scott Fitzgerald of Fitzgeralds Bicycles, remarked on the importance of outdoor access to the health and sustainability of our communities. Organizations such as the Teton Trail Runners, Teton Valley Trails and Pathways, Teton County Search & Rescue – to name a few – provided details for responsible trail use and summer programs to take advantage of our incredible trail network. Props to Caldera Pizza and Snake River Brewing for providing refreshments and to all the bicycle shops that featured their latest gear as well as offering useful freebies!
