I lived near Jackson. The Teton Pass is hazardous 365. Many folks who work in Jackson live over that pass in Idaho. The closest alternative route may take several hours longer, maybe more.
I work in tourism marketing and my first thought was for the safety of any that might have been on the road at the time but my second thought was this could not happen at a worse time. To lose this road at the beginning of the summer travel season will cost so many families their income. Bounce back Wyoming!
Jackson Hole was named for mountain man Davy jackson who found the valley, or "hole" a good place to winter. Jackson is the name of the town officially, but the entire spot is referred to as Jackson Hole
Wish they'd show a map of where this pass is exactly so that tourists on their way to Teton & Yellowstone will know how to avoid it. EDIT TO ADD: It leads through the mountains, west of the town of Wilson. So won't affect tourists flying into the airport or driving into Jackson from the south (the most popular route).
@@grantparnes Ok, I'll explain. Jackson Hole is a community of largely wealthy people who flee there when they want to get away from their places in the city. Their presence in communities like this distorts property values as they are able to overpay for houses and land, which they usually redevelop into something just for them. This happens a lot and not just here, but the end result is that local people are priced out of the market so they have to find houses elsewhere. Buuuuut.... The monied types still need people to do things for them. Watch their dogs, teach their kids (no public schools for these folks) patrol their property. This creates jobs but not pay, so people then drive long distances from other places to work in Jackson Hole though they have not a hope of living there, where their kind are employees and not really residents. This road was one of those that people would drive along from lower income places to serve their masters. One could note that this is also in Wyoming where the two state senators also voted against the US infrastructure plan, which was meant to address issues exactly like this. It is one of the reddest states in the nation, and overall one of the richest in a per-capita sense because of the mineral wealth there but again the monied types will not tolerate money being spent on infrastructure that does not benefit them directly. If this road is rebuilt, it will probably be as a toll road and the profits will be privatized. Have a good day.
@@Strykenine Sorry, but I buy very little of the point of view you put forth. I actually have a house between Driggs and Victor and travel this route to Jackson often. I have never met anyone working in Jackson but living elsewhere who complained about having a job in Jackson. You are simply barking up the wrong pine tree here with this argument. For the 2 senators in the RED state who voted against the infrastructure bill, are you talking about the bill where less than 11% actually went to infrastructure? Good on the Red state republicans doing their job. Most people with a job appreciate that job and don't think of it as serving any master. Not sure what is driving this irrational thinking other than perhaps you just arrived from California? Toll road? Where did you get that from? There is not currently a single toll road in either WY or ID and you think the first one is going to gap the 2 states? I wanna sommmma what you been smokin.

I’ve been on that pass several times. Unfortunately that pass being closed will affect foot traffic to the park and the towns that benefit from the tourism on both sides of the border

Well, blame the Wyoming Department of Forestry for approving clear-cutting plans. Like they really care who lives downhill.

That is what happens when you cut down the trees. There is no root system to hold the dirt in place. It would have scared me to drive on that road. I would have left early and go the longer distance to be safe. So glad no one got hurt.
Fire the man in charge of the repairs. That stretch of road was built by cutting mountains down and using the dirt to fill the valley between two mountains to level the road as much as possible. The road started to shift so the engineer instructed the workers to use big bulldozers and pack the upper side of the road continually pushing it towards the downside of the mountain in an effort to "pack the dirt tighter". This caused the ground, packed long ago when the road was built, to become loosened due to gravity and the vibration of the bulldozers which lead to the failure and collapse of the road bed. Stevie Wonder could see that.
This road will not be fixed anytime soon. Environmental all kinds of stuff has to be done in test, even if they did get it up. Maybe 4 months to a year and the worst part is, it could even fall more or crack in other places. Then you've got our nightmare on your hands
They'll be able to fix it after an environmental impact study, EPA analysis on pavement grade plans, and research into the spotted field mouse and migratory pigeon impact. You'll see some progress after 5 years and a 1.7 billion investment.
Bridge is the sane move - clear underneath and make sure the remaining sides have support which was lost when the soil left the location. If it wasn't on a ridge that would be different.
I think the bed rock would be in the ground at the bottom of the revine 1000 feet below the road surface. They will need millions of tons of material to fix this one and will be dangerous to get any sort of dump trucks or equipment in near that stretch of road.

1 road is blocked, state of emergency? States to put better chains on the goverment in some states.... Making that call, a state of emergency, grants the government huge amount of powers, stuff they are normally not allowed to do. Shouldn't be all willy nilly done for small things like a blocked road. It is meant for like when a forest fire is blocking off half the state, or floods are destroyed 20% of a major city.
A whole lot of people in the valley depend on this road to get to work daily. It’s impacted my family in a very big way and we are just one of hundreds or more affected. It’s a very bad situation.

Obama opposed gay marriage and deported 3 million illegals.
He killed, cooked and consumed his own doggo. Woof, woof.
1 road is blocked, state of emergency?
States to put better chains on the goverment in some states....
Making that call, a state of emergency, grants the government huge amount of powers, stuff they are normally not allowed to do. Shouldn't be all willy nilly done for small things like a blocked road.
It is meant for like when a forest fire is blocking off half the state, or floods are destroyed 20% of a major city.
It's one of only three roads into Jackson, and one of the most heavily traveled roads in Wyoming
A whole lot of people in the valley depend on this road to get to work daily. It’s impacted my family in a very big way and we are just one of hundreds or more affected. It’s a very bad situation.
Horrible engineering.

Return the Lands to Indigenous PEOPLE
-COMANCHE NATION
Sorry! But it’s Gods Land just like the Palestinians trying to take Israel whom God gave that land to them.
If you feel so bad Then give up your homestead to the indigenous ppl.
Please find 3 articles with the same facts as to what really happened with the Indians whom thousands were vicious vicious ppl.
Yes, there are true Christians vs the fake Christians that came across but the fake Christian’s did bad damage to thousands of the Indians.
F u. They were conquered just like the Conanches conquered someone else for that land.
And the Comanche stole their land from the Apache, and the Apache stole the land from the Navaho, and the Navaho stole the land from the Aztec....on and on...
Yeah! That can't even build roads so this would never have happened!
@@memukanofpersiaandmedia2668
There are 9 Apache Nations today.
The Navajo were the last tribe here
The Aztec were in south America.
See kids, Europeans know nothing.

F your 15 second ad 👎👎👎
Didn't they want to cede, anyway? Demand granted.
I blame Trump.
"..there WILL BE earthquakes in various places.." Yeshua Christos
What's even more amazing, they found the only black person in wyoming to report on it...
This road would be fixed under trump but sense Joe Biden is running things expect the hole to remain till Biden is gone
How so? trump ignored infrastructure and Biden got the infrastructure bill passed.
looks like pete buutigieg's work he should be sued
