Best way to Jackson from WI

[axelmain84]

Whats the best route to take to get to Jackson from WI/MN?
We will most likely be going through Fargo to Billings then ......?
Just looking for some people opinions.
Going around West Yellowstone the best way?
We will be driving a V6 with a trailer and 2 sleds...no trailer brakes

90 west to 25 south to casper, west to 287-26 over the togwotee pass, then on to jackson.

make sure you look at which passes are open. teton pass near jackson is closed all season to ALL TRAILERS. so you have to go through idaho falls, and alpine (south of jackson), then into jackson. running from west yellowstone to togwotee or jackson is a pain in the winter due to the roads and passes you are limited to. ski

We go the 94 to belfield ND 85 s to spearfish, then in gillette 50 s to 387 to casper, then 20-26-287 to Jackson. It might sound hokey but it's the fastest I've found.

Get to Buffalo, WY whichever way is fastest for you. Then take Hwy 16 west to Worland, Thermopolis, turn right at Riverton. Go to Dubois then over Togwotee pass(great place to ride too). Then turn left at the Tetons. Really no easy, fast way to get there. I think this would be faster than thru Billings or Casper. It's about 7 hours from Buffalo when the roads are good. Have fun. Jackson's a beautiful place.

If you only have a smaller truck, you are not gonna want to go over the bighorns (into worland) pullings a trailer. So like skidoo said, 90 to 25 south into casper then 26/287 over tog pass then into jackson.

TTT

I'll be making this trip, but actually ending up in Alpine next Friday (1/28) Looking through the replies seemed that there were a few different opinions. Just wondered if anyone else had other input, or reaffrirmation of previous suggestions? Will have two trucks and trailers. Thanks for any and all input!

agreed theres no reason you will be going over teton pass anyways and over the horns isnt bad just use ur gears takes longer to go all the way to casper but if you do use the pavillion cut across dont go all the way to riverton

Trip to Alpine

Here's the route we take and it's the fastest we've found, good roads too.
We don't go all the way to Alpine, but this is a good route, unless there's a blizzard in the Plains. Then you want to go around, maybe take I-80 across.

Have fun.
