BACKGROUND Togwotee Mountain Lodge is regarded as one of the best snowmobile destinations in the United States by popular snowmobile publications, such as American Snowmobiler, SnowGoer and SnoWest. With its average of 600 inches of snow a year, 2.5 million acres of wilderness and 600 miles of groomed trails, it’s easy to see why.

In the summer, the lodge is transformed into a family destination close to Wyoming’s best known attractions including: Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks as well as the town of Jackson Hole. The lodge is operated by Aramark.

LOCATION The lodge and snowmobile rentals are located off of highways 26 and 287 in northwest Wyoming. Togwotee is 16 miles east of Grand Teton National Park, 44 miles south of Yellowstone National Park and 48 miles northeast of Jackson Hole. The lodge is within Bridger-Teton National Forest on Angle Mountain at 8,654 feet in elevation.

SEASON Togwotee Mountain Lodge is open from mid-May to mid-October, approximately the same dates as the National Parks’ seasons. The lodge closes in late fall and reopens for the snowmobiling season the first week of December until mid-April.

HISTORY The Togwotee Pass was first surveyed in 1873 by William A. Jones of the Corp of Engineers, who was looking to build a road to Yellowstone. Nearly 50 years later, the road crew arrived at Togwotee Pass and among them were Al and Bertha Angle. When the road opened in 1921, the Angles built a permanent camp that featured comfortable lodging and home cooked meals. After 30 years in operation, they decided to seed a less strenuous way of life and sold their cherished and hard won business to Harry Moll. Moll later sold it to the Weideman Family, who built the lodge that exists today. They completed construction in 1965 and called it Togwotee Mountain Lodge. The old Angle’s Camp Lodge was then renovated and moved in 1982 to its present site, where it serves as the Lodge’s gas station and convenience store. TOGWOTEE AT A GLANCE

• Togwotee Mountain Lodge was opened as the Angle Camp in 1926 by Al and Bertha Angle. • The Angles ran an outfitters camp, teaching potential guides how to be true mountain men. • Togwotee’s snowmobile country remains uncongested. The vast 2.5 million acres of riding area easily accommodates the lodge’s max guest count of approximately 450 people per day. • The entire state of Delaware can fit in the snowmobiling riding area of 2.5 million acres at Togwotee. • You can ride 170 miles southwest from the lodge and never cross a highway. • Laid end to end, Togwotee’s trail system would extend from Moran, Wyoming all the way into Canada. • Togwotee averages 600 inches (50 feet) of annual snowfall a year, which is the height of five basketball hoops stacked on top of each other. • During the 2011 winter season, Togwotee’s riding area had 55 feet of snow, compared to 23.3’ in West Yellowstone, Wyoming, and 17’ in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. • At 8,654 feet, Togwotee’s elevation is equal in height to nearly seven Empire State Buildings. • Wyoming has more Antelope than people.

Avalanche Beacon: The Backcountry Access Tracker avalanche beacon can greatly reduce the amount of time spent pinpointing, probing, and digging during an avalanche rescue. With directional lighting and digital distance readings, the guesswork of finding buried victims is eliminated. Our snowmobile staff will walk guests through operation of these devices.

Avalanche Shovel & Probe: Portable Avalanche Shovels are made of lightweight plastic and aluminum. They are made to attach securely to the outside of a gear pack. Once the avalanche victim is located, using a shovel specifically made for snow will greatly increase the speed of digging compared to digging by hand.

Collapsible Avalanche Probes are easy to carry and fold to a compact portable size. These special poles are tubular steel that are joined together to make a snow probe up to 12 feet long. The benefit to using a probe during an avalanche rescue is locating the person quickly to save valuable time by avoiding digging in the wrong location. SNOWMOBILE GEAR

Knee pads: Knee pads provide protection from injuries caused by falling from the sled or making contact with trees when riding in heavily wooded areas. Knee pads and knee guards feature impact resistant ABS plastic and perforated foam padding for increased airflow to help ease perspiration. Knee pads can make all the difference in the world in regard to comfort and safety on the snowmobile.

SPOT GPS: The SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger provides a line of communication with the lodge or for emergency assistance when needed. Using 100% satellite technology, SPOT works virtually anywhere in the world, even where cell phones don’t. All GPS units are tracked by the lodge, so that our staff are aware of the location of the device at all times.
