Jackson Hole

For experts, this is one resort that really must be visited. It offers great snow,
wonderful powder, is remote and scenic, with some of the best advanced skiing on the
planet. Rendezvous Mountain has enough to push even the best, with limitless off-piste and
steeps. Laramie, Cheyenne and Hensleep bowls are particularly adventurous, as is the
backcountry, for which you should definitely be guided. Beginners should head for
'Après-Vous Mountain', while the ski school has tuition for 9 ability levels. Intermediates
have some limited cruising, but this is a resort where you can start to explore tougher
terrain. The Ski Three package also gives you access to 'Grand Targhee' (90 minutes away)
and 'Snow King'. Expert boarders will revel as much as their two-planked cousins. Because
the lower and easier runs are at 1900m, there can be poorer snow down the mountain. The
lift system is small but efficient and the only queues can be found for the cable car to the
top.
The major downside to Jackson Hole is the accommodation offered. There is Teton Village,
which is fairly limited. Most have to travel 15 minutes from Jackson town, which is linked
by bus (not free). It is, however, a friendly resort, with a 'Wild West' feel and some
excellent dining, particularly for breakfast. For non-skiers there are loads of activities
and the world-famous Yellowstone National Park is close by. Jackson is actually busier in
summer because of the park. There is some fun après-ski, but it doesn't exactly qualify as
crazy. European visitors will have a long trip including 2-3 flights. The season is also
cut short by elk migration in April elk.
Overall, Jackson Hole is a resort which simply demands a visit from the pro's out there.
It's as simple as that…
