SNOW-FREE CONDITIONS ON THE GRAND & PAINTBRUSH DIVIDE - JULY 20, 2022

An ice axe/crampons are no longer needed for the Owen-Spalding route on the Grand Teton or to traverse Paintbrush Divide.  There will be potential delays on Paintbrush Divide starting July 21st while trail crew works to improve the badly damaged trail below the divide. See previous post below for details. 

Warm temps continue to melt seasonal snow patches across the range. Climbers that are venturing to some of the bigger routes in the range such as the Grand Traverse or the North Face should still expect to deal with patchy snow and ice.
