When it comes to Jackson Hole and other top Wyoming mountain destinations,
the rocky range that first comes to mind is the Tetons. The magnificent
Tetons are amongst America's youngest ranges. This picturesque alpine
range features steep and jagged peaks that soar beautifully towards
the Heavens. The fact that the Tetons contain no foothills on one
side makes their suddenly soaring vistas even more spectacular.
The number one attraction for visitors to the mountain wonderland
of Wyoming is skiing and snowboarding. The beautiful and majestic
Tetons feature the highest continuous vertical rise in the United
States. In all there are some 2,500 acres of largely untouched alpine
terrain. Jackson Hole is world-renowned as a ski lovers' resort
destination. In fact, Jackson Hole is consistently ranked as one
of the premier snow resort locations in all of North America.
While westerners might be known for their maverick nature (after
all they are descendents of western pioneers!), the hospitality
offered in Jackson Hole and other Wyoming mountain locales is truly
warm and welcoming. Locals are more than happy to share the sweeping
splendor of the Tetons with their mountain guests. And the alpine
resorts of Wyoming offer lodging luxury that can compare with the
very best of resort accommodations in North America. In other words,
the people and the lodging available in Wyoming is just as world-class
as the surrounding mountainous wonderland.
There are numerous other recreational activities that are enjoyed
by mountain enthusiasts who make a vacation getaway to Wyoming.
The Tetons are extremely popular for mountain climbers because of
the wide variety of routs available (38 in total), and because of
the challenging nature of these quickly ascending summit trails.
Other popular mountain activities include snowmobiling and mountain
biking.
If you're planning to make a trip to a top resort destination, and
you have in mind some "powder-happy" skiing or snowboarding, then
the wondrous US state of Wyoming is the perfect fit. And not only
does Wyoming offer the tremendous ski destination of Jackson Hole,
but this Rocky Mountain state that is home to the Grand Tetons also
offers world-class hiking and mountain biking. When you combine
that with the exquisite lodging accommodations and courteous nature
of your western hosts, you'll agree that few vacation destinations
in all of North America can compare with the mountain paradise that
is the spectacular state of Wyoming.
