Your Guide to Winter in Jackson Hole
Winter in Jackson Hole is a magical time of year. The snow capped peaks provide an amazing backdrop for recreation or relaxation. A favorite time of year for alpine enthusiasts who anxiously await the next storm to blanket the valley with fresh snow.
Many people do not realize that there is so much to do here during the winter season. There is a lot more out there than just skiing. From touring the parks to a dinner sleigh ride there is enough to keep the non-skier in any group occupied. Browse the Winter Menu for further information about what might interest you.
