The $5 million pathway push for Teton Pass

It’s only 3.6 miles. But the chunk of pathway in the news right now is the most technically challenging and expensive stretch Teton County has planned to date. Brian Schilling is Teton County’s pathway coordinator. Dave Bergart is a former Victor, Idaho town councilor and a pathways enthusiast. The close friends are now part of an effort fundraising for a piece federal dollars aren’t covering. The aim is to extend the existing pathway from the Trail Creek campground to Coal Creek.Schilling and Bergart talk with co-host Frederick Reimers about why they say this stretch is the linchpin of a bigger vision: the nearly complete 180-mile Greater Yellowstone Trail. Our theme music is from Teton Music School student composer Jamison Aughenbaugh with guidance from instructor Joe Rudd.Find more from Frederick here and here.
