WILSON, Wyo. — The winter weather conditions blanketing the valley today have prompted the Wyoming Department of Transportation to close Teton Pass to trailer traffic and issue chain law level one.

Teton Pass opened to trailer traffic on April 1 for the summer season but is still subject to closures due to weather conditions.

Between Wilson and the Idaho state line, the roads are wet and slick in spots due to the snowfall.

Another 8-10″ of snow is expected to fall in the next 24 hours.
