Encompassing a postcard-perfect valley bookended by the dramatic Teton Range to the west and the Gros Ventre Range to the east, Jackson Hole is an adventure seeker’s playground where the Wild West meets ski culture. Offering three impressive ski resorts—Grand Targhee Resort, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, and Snow King Mountain Resort—this snowy region sets the backdrop for every winter sport imaginable.

FIND BLACK DIAMONDS AND HIDDEN GEMS

Check out jaw-dropping, black diamond runs or find hidden gems like cross-country Nordic terrain and guided back country tours. On the south side of the valley, explore the disarming mountain town of Jackson, Starting right at the heart of town, you’ll find the four iconic Antler Arches—built in 1958 from roughly 8,000 antlers shed naturally by local elk—guarding the historic town square. It’s also one of the most photographed spots in town.

PAMPER-AND FEED— YOUR APPETITE FOR ADVENTURE

Spend an afternoon in Teton Village, a well-heeled enclave known for its luxury hotels, upscale restaurants, and stylish boutiques, or check out the vibrant mix of art galleries and eclectic stores in downtown Jackson—especially if you’re looking for a pair of authentic cowboy boots.
