was there from 26-30 and even thought the nws said 5 inches of (fresh)snow, seemed like the south facing slopes had more like 16 inches. guy at gas station in dubois said was the most snow the "town" had gotten in 150 years. didnt take long for it to be beat to death though. LOTS of people that week. going back again in feb. hope its as good then. sorry, didnt mention snow conditions.....hip deep easy to find. snow coming over hood and headlight routine. snow was great.
2016/17 Togwotee Snow Conditions
- Thread starter Himark
- Start date
The Weather Nation tv station said Jackson is approaching 300" of snow fall for the season. Should give a good idea of what Togwotee is like.

Which road is closed?
The pictures from Lava Mtn Lodge are insane. The Tog area is getting hammered it looks like!!
Lava mountain lodge
The snow was chest deep all week , trails need to be groomed little dangerous meeting other sleds in corners ( kinda narrow)The lady at the cash register at lava mountain lodge must of been having a bad day yesterday ! ,I wonder how many people she has run off in the past years , the place was a ghost town, , my best advice is don't talk to her !

I was just out there for 10 days, was in lava a few times, that lady is worthless. Seriously she is not human. That place will be closed next year if it doesn't sell is my guess.
Hi guys.. we are thinking of comming down for a ride this comming weekend if snow is good.. not sure where we should stay, we are in Alberta..
Anyone give us some info for loging and places to ride.. we are all expert riders and want and like deep and steep.. 174 turbos..
Was there 25 years ago and stayed at lodge.. at 10 feet above sea level.. would Jackson be more fun at night ??
Thanks for info, you could also text me or call at 4035280444..
Thanks fred

If you dont mind the 45 min drive from Jackson up to the Pass then I would for sure stay in Jackson. WAY more to do, lots of places to eat, hang out, several bars, tons of places to stay (but lots more $$). The other advantage to staying in Jackson is you have more options for riding. You can ride just west of town, you unload at Mosquito Creek Rd and head west and south, its awesome back in there. You can also drive 45 min south down to Alpine, tons of options around there.
So far this year the above 2 mentioned locations have had way more snow then up at Togwotee.
If you stay at Tog, your stuck there, good or bad conditions.
Something to think about. Eric
Thanks Eric, I think Jackson will be the spot then, we stayed there back when I was not old enough to to get in the bars..lol but snuck in a few.. Remember one that had saddles to sit on..
Well if snow is good we will ride those locations you said.. Any good guides in the area, are guys that want to ride this weekend??.. Leaving Thursday.. 9 hrs drive

we stayed at TOG for 1 wk. over the new-year love the rental cabins/Riding but the restaurant was so busy that you couldn't get any food we ordered and sat for 2+hrs waiting and no show finally we said we were leaving and they said they would deliver to cabin still no show so if your going up there bring some of your own food just in case. and the hot tubs were Ice cold/useless ....so after paying a 1grand for the cabin and ****ty services we will be thinking Twice for next year..
We just got back from Jackson, another group were at the lodge.. They said snow was ok, about a foot of fresh, we went to mosquito one day and we had three new in the trees, also did a few days at north fork, near Belford. Was also very good..
Was snowing like a bastard two days ago as we were leaving
