Teton Pass carries WY 22 over the Teton Range at 8,431 feet, between Jackson and the Idaho side at Victor. Grades of 10 percent either side make it one of the steepest highway passes in the country, and it is the daily commute for the workers who live in Teton Valley — which is why an avalanche-control closure here empties an employment market rather than lengthening a drive.
