A Letter from Caitlin
In true Jackson fashion, the snow has already started flying. While the annual and thankfully ephemeral September snow-s and tourists to start pondering their winter quivers, it also subsided rather quickly into Jackson’s best kept secret: September cooperated this year as avid skiers and fans of Teton Gravity Research’s annual film release party dotted the Village Common Crystal Springs’ back door’s. TGR shares with us their slow motion time-lapse video of the crowds piling the Commons!
I am fresh off a 22 mile hike through Open Canyon, across the Mount Hunt Divide, and down through Granite Canyon. My fr bear spray into our packs and meandered up the well-marked, shaded canyon trail to magnificent views of the backside of the shifted into fast pace-down-and-out mode through the 9 miles of Granite Canyon, we happened upon (600 yards downhill) a m loafing around the banks of a creek. The crisp morning start, the roaming grizzlies, and the quiet trails are the fall trifecta th owners have come to recognize as a second summer season.
I tried channeling my inner “Jimmy Chin” during this arduous hike. I can’t stop thinking about his film Meru, released this pas compelling, breathtaking—we knew this award wining film at Sundance, starting local hero & psstt Terra Owner Jimmy Chin story & cinematography surpassed all possible expectations. Set on the Shark’s Fin in the Northern Himalaya, this tale of big you long after you leave the theater. Released throughout the US and Canada: it is simply a must see
In honor of their 50th birthday, the Resort hosted a media and PR based Jackson-inspired party that accompanied an event s cuisine of Jackson Hole. Chef Kevin Humphries joined Couloir Chef, Wes Hamilton, and Fine Dining Chefs Roger Freedma James Beard House to wow New Yorkers with their culinary inspirations and expertise. This was a prestigious, exciting event that my palate won’t soon forget. The second night was an influencers party hosted by the Mountain Resort, and a fun way and NY-based residents to Jackson. I enjoyed catching up with New York based owners during these events, and I look for events with our Residence Collection owners in the future.
This summer and fall have been busy for the Terra & The Private Residences. Working with the Noble House team and Gavi we have been developing plans to enhance the lobby and restaurant offerings for Terra. This enhancement will of course ex Collection owners and guests.
It was a wonderful summer and early fall, and I enjoyed seeing many of you throughout your summer travels. I look forwar winter that promises an abundance of powder days. Best wishes, Caitlin

Press Highlights Gather the boys and head for Hotel Terra: at least that is what a men’s focused online publication called for in its “11 Best Outdoor Locations Bachelor Party Locations,” which includes a photo and mention of Terra.
On the flipside of the spectrum sits the Eric Orton Run Camp. Camp participant and author for Women’s Running Magazine touts Jackson Hole as a resort not just for skiers, as she laces up her sneakers and tackles the Resort’s trails as a runner. A mention in Real Simple magazine flaunts Terra as one of the 25 Best Resorts in the Continental US, which rounds out the quarter’s praiseworthy press releases. Think Pink with Chill Spa and Travel + Leisure. In an online article, Travel + Leisure “Travel Brands ‘Thinking Pink’ For Breast Cancer Awareness, Travel + Leisure (8.1 million online visitors) pointed to Chill Spa’s “Chill for a Cause” awareness package.
Summer in Review Grand Teton National Park visitation soared this summer and carried well into September with 100,000 additional park visitors in September alone, which exceed all historic September months. Year to date, the Jackson Hole News and Guide reports, total visitation is up almost 8%. The Residence Collection also seems to have found a niche with wedding parties looking for additional options of their guests. A strong synergy arose this summer as we worked with our groups, including these wedding guests, to provide an alternative to hotel accommodations.
