Teton Pass
WY 22Wilson to Victor
Steep hairpin climb between Jackson and Teton Valley.
WY 22 crosses Teton Pass at 8,431 feet between Wilson, Wyoming and the Idaho line. The paved highway carries notably steep sustained grades, with hairpins and a slope section rebuilt after a June 2024 landslide. Mind the ten percent grades, avalanche zones, and winter trailer bans.
