Half the terrain is categorized as advanced and rated the #1 expert terrain in the United States.  The cat-tracks and trails connecting various areas on the mountain are traditionally "green" rated runs at most ski resorts, but not at Jackson Hole where they are rated as "blue" runs.

Jackson Hole ski resort and Teton Village is about twenty minutes from the town of Jackson Wyoming where you will find places to eat, lodging, shopping, ski equipment and clothing stores for both purchase and rental.  There is plenty of nightlife in JacksonHole 7 days a week where you can go dancing, take in some live music, meet friends for drinks and a bite or see a play.

Weather can change fast in Jackson Hole.  Daytime temperatures can be in the teens or even high single digits.  Winter in Jackson Hole is cold so you will want to have enough warm clothes packed to spend the full day outside with the flexibility to adjust as the weather or activities change.  Follow our winter packing fashion guide to prepare for those chilly days and have a much more enjoyable vacation.

Winter vacation things you might forget to pack

Sunscreen- Just because its winter doesn't mean that the sun is strong out there and reflecting off the white snow.

Lip balm- Cold dry weather can cause dry chapped lips.

Hand & foot warmers- If you don't have heated socks, gloves or insoles pick up these cheap disposable warmers.  They are a life saver for your cold feet and hands.

Sunglasses & googles- Its bright out there and the elements can be harsh.  We recommend googles with interchangeable lenses for various conditions.  The white snow can be blinding with the sun shining so a pair of sunglasses is key.

Swimsuit & flip flops- Hot tubes are a popular apres ski activity at every mountain resort so you will want to pack your swimsuit and a pair of flip-flops to wear to and from the tube.
