Jackson Hole Mountain Resort is renowned for its challenging terrain and beautiful mountain scenery. It boasts a significant amount of snowfall, averaging around 500 inches annually, which contributes to its lengthy skiing season typically running from late November to early April. The terrain is diverse, with a reputation for not being particularly beginner-friendly due to its steep runs and advanced trails. However, there are some beginner and intermediate slopes. The resort features a few terrain parks but is especially known for its backcountry areas, which attract expert skiers and snowboarders from around the world. Cross-country trails are available, though night skiing is not offered. The aerial tram and gondola lift system provide access to the mountain's impressive vertical drop. The views from the resort are stunning, with the Grand Teton National Park nearby, offering a dramatic backdrop. While the resort is more geared towards advanced skiers, it is still family-friendly with ski schools and activities for children. Other winter activities include snowshoeing and paragliding, but there are no ice skating, snow tubing, snowmobiling, or sledding areas within the resort itself. Nearby, guests can find additional activities such as dog sledding and wildlife tours.
