Weekend in Jackson, Wyoming in Winter
Weekend in Jackson, Wyoming in Winter
We took a few days to run down to Jackson, Wyoming this January to see friends and take a sleigh ride on the elk refuge. There is SO much to do in Jackson that we've planned another trip in May. The elk refuge is worth the price. You take a short shuttle bus ride from the visitor center north of town and are shuttled back. There are blankets for your legs and you can get very close to the elk. We also enjoyed a ski in Grand Teton National Park. It's a majestic park and the trails are excellent. We didn't show our visit to Dornan's in Moose after our sky and keep an eye out for some 360 Video from our tubing fun at Snow King right in town!

We are back in Jackson for a week or so and so you get a different season. Check out our other video shot in Winter and in 360VR. That was a fun one but cold. Now you get to see what it's like in spring after (most of) the snow has melted. We start downtown at the town square with the famous antler arches and make our way past the fair grounds and library and Fish Creek. I also point out several hotels and lodges and other accommodations as I go through town .

Jackson is a small city in the Jackson Hole valley of Teton County, Wyoming, United States. The population was 9,577 at the 2010 census, up from 8,647 in 2000. It is the county seat of Teton County and is its largest town.
Jackson is the principal town of the Jackson, WY-ID Micropolitan Statistical Area, which includes Teton County in Wyoming and Teton County in Idaho.
The town derives its name from Jackson Hole, the valley in which it is located.

Grand Teton National Park Mountains of the Imagination Jackson Hole Wyoming Idaho Music
Grand Teton National Park
Mountains of the Imagination
Rising above a scene rich with
extraordinary wildlife, pristine lakes,
and alpine terrain, the
Teton Range stands monument to the
people who fought to protect it.
These are mountains of the imagination.
Mountains that led to the creation of
Grand Teton National Park where you
can explore over two hundred miles
of trails, float the Snake River or
enjoy the serenity
of this remarkable place.
Humans and the Teton Landscape:
11,000 years of history in 1,100 words
The human history of Jackson Hole and the
Teton Range dates back thousands of years.
The stunning beauty and abundant wildlife
and plants found here has drawn
humans to this place for
more than 11,000 years.
Nomadic paleo-Indians first entered
the Jackson Hole valley shortly after
Pleistocene Ice Age glaciers retreated.
They left behind tipi rings,
fire pits and stone tools.
Summers were a time of abundance, and
modern-day Indian tribes came to harvest
bulbs and berries, fish the lakes and streams,
and hunt wildlife.
With the approach of the harsh winter,
indigenous people followed their prey
out of the valley in search of milder weather.
With increased visitation, the park also saw
the need to expand visitor services.
As the National Park Service approached its
50th anniversary in 1966, visitor centers were built
at Colter Bay and Moose in the late 1950s to provide
information and offer ranger activities
as part of the Mission 66 program.
Adventure has always
drawn people to this area.
No one knows who first climbed the
Grand Teton.
American Indians built an enclosure at 13,280'
on a sub-peak of the 13,770' tall Grand Teton.
Although members of the 1872 Hayden Expedition
claimed to have reached the summit, William Owen,
Franklin Spalding, John Shive and Frank Peterson
made the first documented summit in 1898.
Many followed in the footsteps. Paul Petzoldt
and Glen Exum established the first
guide service in 1931, which still operates
today as Exum Mountain Guides.
Today over 90 different routes and variations
lead to the summit of the Grand Teton.
Today, all of the Teton peaks lure
climbers with the skills necessary for a summit.
This majestic place inspired and
sustained people for thousands of years.

We have five enormous galleries covering a range of topics relevant to the American West.
Our Plains Indian Museum covers the past and ongoing cultures of the Great Plains.
Our Draper Natural History Museum is THE museum on the Greater Yellowstone Region and Ecosystem. This is a great way to learn more about the wild you came to see in Yellowstone National Park.
The Cody Firearms Museum has a massive collection of significant firearms, known for their place in history or the attractive nature of their design.
The Whitney Western Art Museum showcases the artwork of the masters of Western painting like Remington and Russell, and offers a variety of artistic perspectives on the West from the distant past to the current day.
The Buffalo Bill Museum focuses on the man, William F. Cody, who was probably the most famous person in the world during much of his lifetime. He was one of the first to share the American West with the world and we are proud to continue his legacy.

Grand Teton National Park is a United States National Park in northwestern Wyoming. At approximately 310,000 acres (480 sq mi; 130,000 ha; 1,300 km2), the park includes the major peaks of the 40-mile-long (64 km) Teton Range as well as most of the northern sections of the valley known as Jackson Hole. It is only 10 miles (16 km) south of Yellowstone National Park, to which it is connected by the National Park Service-managed John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Memorial Parkway. Along with surrounding National Forests, these three protected areas constitute the almost 18,000,000-acre (7,300,000 ha) Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, one of the largest intact mid-latitude temperate ecosystems in the world.
Human history of the Grand Teton region dates back at least 11,000 years, when the first nomadic hunter-gatherer Paleo-Indians began migrating into the region during warmer months pursuing food and supplies. In the early 19th century, the first White explorers encountered the eastern Shoshone natives. Between 1810 and 1840, the region attracted fur trading companies that vied for control of the lucrative beaver pelt trade. U.S. Government expeditions to the region commenced in the mid-19th century as an offshoot of exploration in Yellowstone, with the first permanent white settlers in Jackson Hole arriving in the 1880s. Efforts to preserve the region as a national park commenced in the late 19th century, and in 1929 Grand Teton National Park was established, protecting the major peaks of the Teton Range. The valley of Jackson Hole remained in private ownership until the 1930s, when conservationists led by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. began purchasing land in Jackson Hole to be added to the existing national park. Against public opinion and with repeated Congressional efforts to repeal the measures, much of Jackson Hole was set aside for protection as Jackson Hole National Monument in 1943. The monument was abolished in 1950 and most of the monument land was added to Grand Teton National Park.
Grand Teton National Park is named for Grand Teton, the tallest mountain in the Teton Range. The naming of the mountains is attributed to early 19th-century French-speaking trappers—les trois tétons (the three teats) was later anglicized and shortened to Tetons. At 13,775 feet (4,199 m), Grand Teton abruptly rises more than 7,000 feet (2,100 m) above Jackson Hole, almost 850 feet (260 m) higher than Mount Owen, the second-highest summit in the range. The park has numerous lakes, including 15-mile-long (24 km) Jackson Lake as well as streams of varying length and the upper main stem of the Snake River. Though in a state of recession, a dozen small glaciers persist at the higher elevations near the highest peaks in the range. Some of the rocks in the park are the oldest found in any U.S. National Park and have been dated at nearly 2.7 billion years.
Grand Teton National Park is an almost pristine ecosystem and the same species of flora and fauna that have existed since prehistoric times can still be found there. More than 1,000 species of vascular plants, dozens of species of mammals, 300 species of birds, more than a dozen fish species and a few species of reptiles and amphibians exist. Due to various changes in the ecosystem, some of them human-induced, efforts have been made to provide enhanced protection to some species of native fish and the increasingly threatened whitebark pine.
Grand Teton National Park is a popular destination for mountaineering, hiking, fishing and other forms of recreation. There are more than 1,000 drive-in campsites and over 200 miles (320 km) of hiking trails that provide access to backcountry camping areas. Noted for world-renowned trout fishing, the park is one of the few places to catch Snake River fine-spotted cutthroat trout. Grand Teton has several National Park Service-run visitor centers, and privately operated concessions for motels, lodges, gas stations and marinas.

Grand Teton National Park is an American national park in northwestern Wyoming. At approximately 310,000 acres (480 sq mi; 130,000 ha; 1,300 km2), the park includes the major peaks of the 40-mile-long (64 km) Teton Range as well as most of the northern sections of the valley known as Jackson Hole. Grand Teton National Park is only 10 miles (16 km) south of Yellowstone National Park, to which it is connected by the National Park Service-managed John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Memorial Parkway. Along with surrounding national forests, these three protected areas constitute the almost 18,000,000-acre (7,300,000 ha) Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, one of the world's largest intact mid-latitude temperate ecosystems.
The human history of the Grand Teton region dates back at least 11,000 years, when the first nomadic hunter-gatherer Paleo-Indians began migrating into the region during warmer months pursuing food and supplies. In the early 19th century, the first white explorers encountered the eastern Shoshone natives. Between 1810 and 1840, the region attracted fur trading companies that vied for control of the lucrative beaver pelt trade. U.S. Government expeditions to the region commenced in the mid-19th century as an offshoot of exploration in Yellowstone, with the first permanent white settlers in Jackson Hole arriving in the 1880s.
Efforts to preserve the region as a national park began in the late 19th century, and in 1929 Grand Teton National Park was established, protecting the Teton Range's major peaks. The valley of Jackson Hole remained in private ownership until the 1930s, when conservationists led by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. began purchasing land in Jackson Hole to be added to the existing national park. Against public opinion and with repeated Congressional efforts to repeal the measures, much of Jackson Hole was set aside for protection as Jackson Hole National Monument in 1943. The monument was abolished in 1950 and most of the monument land was added to Grand Teton National Park.
Grand Teton National Park is named for Grand Teton, the tallest mountain in the Teton Range. The naming of the mountains is attributed to early 19th-century French-speaking trappers—les trois tétons (the three teats) was later anglicized and shortened to Tetons. At 13,775 feet (4,199 m), Grand Teton abruptly rises more than 7,000 feet (2,100 m) above Jackson Hole, almost 850 feet (260 m) higher than Mount Owen, the second-highest summit in the range. The park has numerous lakes, including 15-mile-long (24 km) Jackson Lake as well as streams of varying length and the upper main stem of the Snake River. Though in a state of recession, a dozen small glaciers persist at the higher elevations near the highest peaks in the range. Some of the rocks in the park are the oldest found in any American national park and have been dated at nearly 2.7 billion years.
Grand Teton National Park is an almost pristine ecosystem and the same species of flora and fauna that have existed since prehistoric times can still be found there. More than 1,000 species of vascular plants, dozens of species of mammals, 300 species of birds, more than a dozen fish species and a few species of reptiles and amphibians inhabit the park. Due to various changes in the ecosystem, some of them human-induced, efforts have been made to provide enhanced protection to some species of native fish and the increasingly threatened whitebark pine.
Grand Teton National Park is a popular destination for mountaineering, hiking, fishing and other forms of recreation. There are more than 1,000 drive-in campsites and over 200 miles (320 km) of hiking trails that provide access to backcountry camping areas. Noted for world-renowned trout fishing, the park is one of the few places to catch Snake River fine-spotted cutthroat trout. Grand Teton has several National Park Service-run visitor centers, and privately operated concessions for motels, lodges, gas stations and marinas.
