Jackson Hole
“Heaven on Earth” is the best way to describe this remarkable city. Jackson Hole is filled with endless picturesque landscapes, year-round outdoor activities, and wildlife sightings.

Cheatsheet
We recommend renting a car to get around town: Rental offices are located in the town of Jackson and at the Jackson Hole Airport (JAC), about 9 miles north. The public transportation isn't very frequent in service options. Uber and Lyft are also available.
Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park are fully open, offering great day trip opportunities
The local time zone in Jackson Hole is mountain daylight time.
Town Square, or the city’s “outdoor living room” is filled with retail, dining and entertainment options. Located at the intersections of Broadway and Cache. Stick around for the 6pm nightly shootout reenactment!
