Winter

Layering is the way to go. A base layer should be made of a moisture-wicking fabric. A fleece works as a midlayer. Wear a jacket that blocks the wind. Other winter essentials: moisture-wicking socks; waterproof gloves; goggles and sunglasses with polarized lenses.

Practical Tips

Discover locals’ tips to best enjoy your visit to the area. jht.guide/tips

Be Adventurous

The main attractions in Jackson Hole are our natural setting, wildlife and recreational opportunities. Connect with a local wildlife, rafting, hiking or photography guide service to jump-start your trip.

Be Prepared

Any outing needs to always include water, extra warm layers and additional food. Bring a small pack and always have it with you when you are outdoors.

Be Careful

Be respectful of our wild animals, as the growing human population of our valley has reduced their habitat. Drive very cautiously during the day and evening. For whatever reason, some visitors think they can walk up to a bison, moose or bear. This stresses the animal and can be dangerous.

Getting Around

START Bus provides a FREE town shuttle that runs every half-hour and can get you to restaurants, supermarkets and shops in town. Buses also run between Jackson and Teton Village. Go to startbus.com or get the RouteShout app.

Rental cars and taxis are available at the airport and in town. Uber and Lyft are also available.

Biking can be enjoyed on over 69 miles of the multiuse pathways. Bike rentals are available as well as START Bike; go to StartBikeJH.com. See “Go Biking” on pages 52-53, or jht.guide/bike
