A Letter from Caitlin In true Jackson fashion, the snow has already started flying. While the annual and thankfully ephemeral September snow-scare motivated locals and tourists to start pondering their winter quivers, it also subsided rather quickly into Jackson’s best kept secret: September weather. I am fresh off a 22 mile hike through Open Canyon, across the Mount Hunt Divide, and down through Granite Canyon. Franco Turrinelli, fellow owner, and I tucked our bear spray into our packs and meandered up the wellmarked, shaded canyon trail to magnificent views of the backside of the Resort. As we (tiredly) shifted into fast pace-down-and-out mode through the 9 miles of Granite Canyon, we happened upon (600 yards downhill) a mama grizz and her sow loafing around the banks of a creek. The crisp morning start, the roaming grizzlies, and the quiet trails are the fall trifecta that Jackson locals and 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 past September. Inspiring, compelling, breathtaking—we knew this award wining film at Sundance, starting local hero & friend Jimmy Chin, would deliver, but its story & cinematography surpassed all possible expectations. Set on the Shark’s Fin in the Northern Himalaya, this tale of big wall climbing stays with 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 showcasing the culinary cuisine of Jackson Hole. Chef Kevin Humphries joined Couloir Chef, Wes Hamilton, and Fine Dining Chefs Roger Freedman and Joel Tate at the James Beard House to wow New Yorkers with their culinary inspirations and expertise. This was a prestigious and exciting event to be apart of, and one that my palate won’t soon forget. With great anticipation, I am pleased to share that this November new sofas will be installed in all residences along with a small accessories update to complete the in-unit renovation that we have staggered over the past two years. As we build excitement towards the winter season, here is a snippet of the audience assembly for the TGR premier on the village commons. Let it snow! Caitlin

Press Highlights Run-cation? Yes, please. Bachelor Party Locale? Of course! An online, men’s-focused lifestyle website reviewed the “11 Best Outdoor Bachelor Party Destinations” and pointed to TML’s multiple hot tubs and Spur on
its elite list of hot spots with the boys! 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.
Summer in Review Wow. What a summer. The Lodge was up almost 10%, with growth seen across all unit types, but primarily in the one bedroom lock-off floor plan. We hope you are pleased with your statements, but please do reach out if you have any questions. funds targeting off-season marketing efforts.
Winter Pace December is currently consistent with the same time last year. We are holding our rates, and with exciting early December events, we are positioned to have wellrounded occupancy throughout the month.

As you may know, this is the 50th Anniversary of the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. The kickoff starts on December 19th with the opening of the new lift to the Crags, and we welcome the new restaurant, Off Piste, to the former Headwall Deli location.
