The Jackson Ranger District of the Bridger-Teton National Forest is announcing the closure of Granite Hot Springs Pool a week earlier than its scheduled closing date due to the unusual warm conditions making the road inaccessible. Granite Hot Springs will be closed on Tuesday, March 31 for the winter season.

"The unusual early warm weather conditions we have had this winter has caused the roads to become excessively muddy and slushy for snowmobiles and snow bikes to reach the Hot Springs" said Linda Merigliano, Recreational Manager of the Jackson Ranger Districts. "A lot of our outfitters are done for the season and it just makes the most sense for both the public convenience and resource protection to close it a little early this year."

Vehicle access through Granite road is closed until May 1st. Granite Hot Springs Pool will open for the summer mid-May, if the weather is favorable.
