Let's Keep Our Trails Beautiful Together!
Friends of the Bridger-Teton helps maintain and support more than 2,000 miles of trails on the fifth-largest national forest in the U.S. With 3.4 million acres of breathtaking landscapes, the Bridger-Teton National Forest (BTNF) offers endless adventures.
Recreate Responsibly
While you enjoy all that BTNF has to offer, please recreate responsibly. Your actions help preserve this important resource for future generations.
Join Us in Our Mission
The U.S. Forest Service alone can’t keep up with all of the maintenance and work the BTNF’s trail network requires. We need everyone to pitch in and partner with us to preserve the forest’s stunning landscapes and resources. Whether it’s through donations, volunteering, or spreading the word—every bit helps.
Support Our Trails Today
The Bridger-Teton National Forest is a special place. A donation to Friends of the Bridger-Teton helps us continue to keep it that for future generations.

The first photo is a WTDOT-triggered avalanche on Teton Pass, in the BTNF's Jackson District. The second is of a skier-triggered slide, also on Teton Pass. This slide resulted in one burial and a call out for Teton County Search and Rescue.
Conditions for skiing and snowmobiling in the backcountry are sketchy right now. Please remember to check the daily avalanche reports put out by @btacavy. Link in our bio.

Recently, UW Extension partnered with the International Society of Arboriculture on a Zoom that walked attendees through how to identify conifers—starting with the basics, then Wyoming’s native species, and finally the common evergreens you’ll see in local yards and landscapes.
The Zoom is over, but you can watch a recording of it on YouTube, which we might have done last night while wrapping holiday presents. Link in our bio.
