It is a beautiful road amd an amazing ride. Been there twice. Tnere is spot at tne top before you head down to Jackson Hole that you can see tne valley and the town below. It is cold up tnete in July, and need a jacket to get out of the car and go stand at an edge to look down.

This is going to be a major problem as it is the only road from the west to Jackson. They’re going to have to build a bridge in that area to go over the u stab.e ground.

Take a look.

‘Catastrophic landslide’ closes critical mountain highway between Wyoming and Idaho

A critical highway linking Idaho and Wyoming has closed indefinitely after a portion of the road cracked and then collapsed in a “catastrophic landslide” Saturday, officials said.

Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon said in a post on Facebook there is no estimated timeline for reopening Teton Pass, which links Victor, Idaho, and Jackson, Wyoming.

The initial crack appeared Thursday morning across both lanes of travel, the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) said in a post on Facebook at the time.
