Bridger-Teton NF OHV Trails
The Bridger-Teton National Forest encompasses 3.4 million acres of western Wyoming: the largest national forest in the lower 48 states outside Alaska, covering Sublette, Teton, Fremont, and Lincoln counties in a continuous block from the Teton Range south to the Wyoming Range and east to the Wind River Mountains. The forest OHV system operates in the non-wilderness areas of this vast tract, with the Jackson Hole valley as the primary visitor hub and the Gros Ventre and Wyoming ranges providing the majority of the designated OHV riding terrain. The Gros Ventre Range east of Jackson, the broad mountain mass between Jackson Hole and the Wind River Basin, hosts the most accessible Bridger-Teton OHV routes: the Gros Ventre Road corridor north of Kelly, the upper Hoback Canyon country, and the Swift Creek drainage above Afton provide riding through the characteristic Wyoming mountain landscape of lodgepole pine and Douglas fir forest on the lower slopes, sagebrush parks in the valley bottoms, and alpine terrain above treeline on the higher Gros Ventre summits. The Wyoming Range in the forest's southern reach provides a second distinct riding zone: a large, remote mountain massif between Afton and Kemmerer with excellent ridgeline riding on the designated OHV trails and forest roads that traverse the range. The Bridger-Teton's position adjacent to Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone means riders can combine OHV day rides with national park visits on the same trip. ATVs, UTVs, and dirt bikes on designated routes; Wyoming OHV registration required. Jackson Ranger District (307-739-5500) manages the Gros Ventre and Teton-adjacent OHV route information.
