Thousands of ski lovers head for the hills and beautiful ski resorts in Jackson Hole, Wyoming to enjoy the slopes and all that these resorts have to offer during t h e l o n g w i n t e r months.

Jackson Hole is known for its powder-like snow and challenging terrain, which makes it heaven for winter sports enthusiasts. However, it can be a difficult task finding the right resort that accommodates both, your preferences and budget. I have included some of my favorite resorts below, in order to give people some ideas of where to stay and what to expect when visiting this legendary place.

resort have access to the beautiful Apres Vous and Rendezvous mountains. One of the longest

advanced. It is located 12 miles away from the main town of Jackson, which allows people to

take in some shopping and town experience in between slopes. Jackson Hole Mountain Resort

3. Grand Targhee Resort

Grand Targhee Resort is located the furthest from the town of Jackson- about a 45 mile hike. However, its seclusion from the town means that it lies in over 2,000 acres of slopes with 500 inches of powdery snow. The resort is family friendly, and it offers activities for all ages.
