Description:

Rammell Mountain Road Trail is a Caribou-Targhee US Forest service dirt road trail (nbr 267), groomed usually once a week in winter by the USFS team. Most of the time, it is a skier-track with snowmobile track as the set base. Located 11.7 miles north of Driggs, on the west, wooded slope of the northern Tetons, this trail sees very little use in the winter.

Parking: Parking available at the small parking area at the trailhead.

Skiing Experience: This trail is a quiet and less-traveled option for skiers, with opportunities for both short and longer outings.

Winter Conditions: Grooming is done by the USFS team, usually once a week. Check the JHNordic Trail Report for grooming updates or visit TVTAP.org for the latest grooming date.

Dog Owners: Dogs are allowed on the trail, but please keep them under control and within voice command.

Summer Conditions: In the summer, Rammell Mountain Road is a nice gravel or mountain bike ride that connects with Pinochle Road for a good loop trail. Enjoy the peaceful wilderness and beautiful views along the Rammell Mountain Road Trail.

Directions:


Uphill Stretch: Be prepared for a sustained uphill climb initially.

Views: Enjoy scenic views of the Grand Teton and Grand Targhee Ski resort (Fred's Mountain) to the south-east.
