Walkers, bikers and roller bladers can now take to the main road in Grand Teton National Park.
The park announced on March 25 that the 14-mile road is open to non-motorized vehicles about a week ahead of schedule. Cars are expected to be able to drive into the park for the season starting May 1.
Dogs are not allowed on trails in the park but are allowed on the park road, so long as they stay leashed and picked-up-after. Bears are active in the park and visitors are encouraged to keep their distance and carry bear spray. The Taggart Trailhead is closer to Jackson, but can get busy. Grand Teton encourages visitors to drive further north to Signal Mountain for more space.
Craig Thomas Discovery and Visitor Center in Moose remains closed for the season and is slated to open on April 10.
