Road crews may be clearing auxiliary roads and wayside areas, and visitors are cautioned to keep a safe distance from rotary plows and other heavy equipment. Recreationists are cautioned that snow and ice may persist on some sections of the roadway creating slick conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Dogs are permitted on the Teton Park Road, according to a statement released by the park&#8217;s public affairs office. Dog owners are required to use a leash no longer than six feet in length and are required to clean up after their dogs. Waste disposal bag stations are located at each end of the road.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This 14-mile section of the Teton Park Road will open to public motor vehicle traffic on Monday, May 1, 2017. \u00a0Antelope Flats Road is open to motor vehicles for the season.
