ON TERRA FIRMA AT JACKSON HOLE

Jackson Hole is one of the world’s great ski resorts with two mountains – Rendezvous and Après Vous – veritable playgrounds for skiers and snowboarders of varying skill levels. Most people choose to stay at the foot of the mountains in Teton Village, ensuring easy access to the snowy terrain on either the huge Jackson Hole Aerial Tram – which carries 100 people – the Bridger Gondola, Sweetwater Gondola or the Teewinot chairlift. Travelplan recommends Hotel Terra in Teton Village, a modern property with glamour rooms and suites, the Chill Spa and the Il Villagio Osteria restaurant and bar, which offers delicious Italian fare and is open for lunch or dinner. And, after a day on the slopes, the place to be is the heated pool off the Chill Spa, which has wonderful views back up the mountain. New this season, Jackson Hole will open its new Sweetwater Lodge which will streamline the experience for those just starting out on their ski journeys, with rental gear, lessons and a restaurant just for those in snowsports school. When you need a break from the snow, head into Jackson, do a day tour in to Yellowstone National Park, visit the National Elk Refuge, go dog sledding, or just soak up the great vibe of this world-renowned resort. Travelplan can package up the complete Jackson Hole vacation to suit your needs, bundling up lift tickets, accommodation, lessons, and flights to save you dollars.
