Published at 5:20 pm, June 10, 2024Crews are working to figure out how to repair the collapse of the Teton Pass. A mudslide at the top of Talbot Canyon at milepost 15 caused a section of the Teton Pass to cave completely Friday morning. From July 2022 to June 2023, tourism to Teton County generated $10 million in lodging tax funds, and created 7,890 tourism-related jobs. “I recognize the significant impacts this closure has to Teton County residents, regional commuters and the local economy.”What is happening now to fix the pass? The closure only impacts driving between Jackson, Wyoming, and Teton County, Idaho.
