📸 Image of the Week
Grizzly Bear 679, aka Bruno, a legendary Grizzly in the Tetons, wears his newest battle wound like a badge of survival. His scarred face tells the story of a recent clash, likely over food, territory, or dominance.

Events, News & Music
 Teton Pass Closure June 20–23: Paving the Way, Literally🚧 Heads up, Jackson and Idaho drivers: Teton Pass will not be your weekend shortcut on June 20th. WYDOT is entering the final phase of repairs on the “Big Fill Slide” and will close WYO 22 at Teton Pass from Friday, June 20, at 6 p.m. to Monday, June 23, at 6 a.m. to complete critical paving work. |  “Slow Down” Signs Save Lives, Including Bears in GTNPLast fall, the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem lost one of its most iconic residents: Grizzly 399. Her death in a vehicle collision outside Grand Teton National Park marked yet another tragic entry in a growing list of 51 grizzlies killed by vehicles since 2009. In response, researchers from the University of Montana rolled up their sleeves and got creative. Their goal? To figure out if better-designed road signs could actually influence driver behavior and reduce wildlife-vehicle collisions. |

😳 Jackson Has A Budget Shortfall?
I was as surprised as you are to read that county officials are scrambling to close a $3.8 million budget gap for the coming fiscal year. Both the County Commission and Town Council are already dipping into reserves and eyeing mill-levy hikes or new local taxes just to keep pace with basic services.
I have an idea……👇
