Teton Pass has become a Mecca for backcountry skiers and snowboarders. In 1998 we created the Ski and Ride Wyoming 22 stickers to celebrate this local treasure and as a way to give back to those who make it possible for the rest of us to safely recreate there. Wyoming22.com now furthers that original goal by providing a conduit for information to help everyone safely enjoy this community resource.
This fine will cost you $410 bucks beginning this winter.
Apparently the cost of getting caught pulling a trailer over Teton Pass in the winter wasn’t high enough, according to the Wyoming Supreme Court. I was unaware that the fine was so paltry: a mere 110 smackers. Hardly enough to deter most sled-heads and truckers looking for a short-cut from Victor to Wilson.
Well, this year the price tag for such violations will be quite a bit heftier. According to an article in today’s Jackson Hole News&Guide, that price just went up to $410! Hopefully that’ll keep the unwarranted trailer traffic to a minimum.
