Today's riddle: What do you call a belt that is made of watches? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Dump truck driver pleads not guilty in fatal Teton Pass crash (jhnewsandguide.com) — A dump truck driver has pleaded not guilty to two misdemeanor homicide‑by‑vehicle charges stemming from a July 7 crash on Teton Pass while driving east toward Wilson, a route many locals use daily. Investigators say overheated brakes and missed chances to pull over or use the escape ramp made the six‑vehicle collision, which killed two people and injured three, entirely preventable.
• Moose-Wilson pathway opponents, proponents lock horns (jhnewsandguide.com) — A proposed 7.1‑mile separated pathway along Moose‑Wilson Road in Grand Teton National Park is drawing sharp debate that directly affects how Wilson‑area residents bike, drive, and encounter wildlife. Teton County commissioners criticized the National Park Service's process and considered, but did not approve, a letter opposing the project, while pathway advocates argue it would close a key safety gap in the local trail network.
• Teton Village Association looking to town businesses to close START funding gap (jhnewsandguide.com) — START's budget shortfall could affect bus service that many Wilson workers and commuters rely on between town and Teton Village. Village and chamber leaders now want Jackson businesses to help close a remaining funding gap by buying employee bus passes, while a Wilson resident and former START board member argues Village entities should shoulder more responsibility for traffic mitigation.
