Current Trail Conditions
October 30th, 2026
Fall riding in the Tetons can be incredible, but trail conditions are variable this time of year. One day it's hero dirt, the next, freeze-thaw and moisture can leave trails soft and vulnerable to damage.
Hillbender Loop and Upper Lady Slipper are generally conservative choices when conditions are variable. With enough time to dry out, lower-elevation trails like Aspen and Horseshoe may also offer good riding.
Timing matters. Early mornings (7–9 a.m.) are often best. As the sun warms the ground, trails can quickly become greasy.
Pay attention to the weather. If you're leaving trenches or mud is sticking to your tires, boots, or hooves, it's time to turn back.
Please report additional trail conditions and observations.
