Temporary delays expected on Granite Creek Road in Hoback Canyon
Construction work to improve sight distance at entrance
by Bridger-Teton National Forest
November 17, 2017
On Monday, November 20, 2017, Wyoming State Trails will be working on the entrance to the Granite Creek Road on the Bridger-Teton National Forest's Jackson Ranger District, located off of Highway 189/191, approximately 25 miles south of Jackson, Wyoming. Delays of 15 minutes are expected until Tuesday, November 21st.
The entrance of the Granite Creek Road has a narrow pinch-point with a blind corner. Workers will be utilizing a rock hammer and other equipment to chisel off 2-feet of rock face and remove the debris, and level out the area. Eliminating the blind curve will improve the sight distance and safety for visitors accessing the Granite Creek drainage.
The Forest asks that visitors use caution as workers and equipment will be moving in the area. For more information on road status or current conditions on the Forest, check with the local Ranger Districts or call 307-739-5500.
