Grand Teton National Park, Yellowstone National Park, and the Bridger Teton National Forest will remain open to visitors, but please note that only limited services are being provided at this time. We encourage all guests to take extra steps in preparation, including bringing along the supplies you may need to get you through a trip that you may have planned or are planning.

Please remember to be respectful of the parks and our public lands, remain conscious of decreased amenities, adhere to all closure signs, and show consideration for essential staff who are working hard to keep the parks and forests accessible and safe.

For trip planning assistance, please call our Visitor Services Team, funded by the Jackson Hole Travel & Tourism Board at (307) 733-3316 or email us at info@jacksonholechamber.com. You can also visit our website regularly for updates on any communications during the shutdown.
