Dick’s Ditch Banked Slalom 2018

Posted on: February 24th, 2018 by thcAdmin No Comments

March 2nd-4th

The Dick’s Ditch Banked Slalom is an exhilerating twist on the traditional slalom. Course inspection begins on Friday. The format for the race weekend will hold qualifiers on Saturday and “winner-takes-all” on Sunday.

Dick’s Ditch Classic utilizes a natural ditch which winds its way down most of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. The race event utilizes the ravine which runs through the middle portion of the mountain. This “big mountain ditch” has huge banked walls with steep pitches and opportunities for plenty of air. The course’s natural terrain is “enhanced” with some manmade features providing an amazing venue for this ski and snowboard race. The event format, as the name implies, is that of a banked slalom. This race course changes a bit each year and is like nothing you’ve seen before.

This is a wild event which is sure to feature a few spills and some wild riding. Rollers, gaps, bumps and jumps are just a few of the sculpted features that keep racers on edge. The challenging course pushes racers physically and mentally.

Competition heats up over the weekend as racers become familiar with the course and conditions. There is prize money and awards up for grabs. This event attracts many of the area’s best all-around riders. Skiers and boarders look forward to this event each year as competition continually heats up.

As the event has matured over the years the course has become more exciting and refined. Doing some laps off of the Marmot Chair can provide some good viewing opportunities from the chair and along the course which snakes down the edge of Amphitheater. Be sure to take in some of the action over the weekend if you are out riding JHMR over the weekend.

Things to do in Jackson Hole

Posted on: September 25th, 2017 by thcAdmin No Comments

Jackson Hole and the surrounding area offer unlimited possibilities. No matter what the time of year is you can always get out and experience something wonderful.

Late Spring and Fall do present some challenges since many vendors are closed and access to the National Parks is limited. You can find something to occupy your time. Local galleries provide a wide array of art. Wildlife is always out there, so sign up for a tour or ask some locals where to look and go on your own.

The Summer months in Jackson provide the widest array of activities, and the largest crowds. Planning items in advance can help make things a lot smoother. Most activities are available at multiple times per day.

Hot air ballooning only goes at the crack of dawn, it is well worth getting out of bed for this one! If aerial adventure is your game, then paragliding might be just what the doctor ordered.

Whitewater and Scenic rafting are available in multiple locations and go at all hours of the day.

Horseback riding is a popular activity here in the Jackson Hole area. Tours depart at all times of day. Most folks opt for a two or four hour ride. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and multi-day trips as well.

During the later Summer months and into the Fall, Jackson becomes a destination for fly fishing. This is a great way to get out on the water and stalk the native cutthroat trout.

If you are looking to get out on a bicycle, there is an extensive trail system that runs throughout the valley. A number of single track trails and dirt roads are available for mountain biking. We are blessed with a paved bicycle trail encompasses nearly the entire valley, it will even get you up into Grand Teton National Park.

If you have children, the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort in Teton Village, has a number of activities. This includes a ropes course, the aerial tram, lift served mountain biking, a climbing wall, bungee trampoline, 18-hole disc golf course. You can additionally take horseback tours, do a chuckwagon dinner, or take the gondola up to mid-mountain and opt for happy hour or dinner at Couloir restaurant. Snow King Mountain has a Scenic Chairlift, Bungee Trampoline, Alpine Slide and Alpine Coaster, as well as a TreeTop Adventure Course to keep you busy.

Wildlife Tours will get you familiarized with this vast ecosystem. An expert guide will lead on an educational tour, you can take it all in since your not behind the wheel. Guides are available for Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks as well as other areas. These tours are highly suggested for photographer among us.

There is quite a bit of  music offered up throughout the season, much of it free & outdoor, take in a show while you are in town!

Solar Eclipse 2017

Posted on: August 7th, 2017 by thcAdmin No Comments

The solar eclipse of August 2017 looks to be quite an event here in Jackson, WY. With people booking rooms two years or more in advance of the event. The eclipse will occur on August 21, 2017 passing directly over the Jackson Hole valley. The phase of total eclipse will begin around 11:30am. The duration of the full eclipse will be for less than two and a half minutes. With the event’s totality lasting from 10:15am to 1pm.

Teton Eclipse official Site

Official Weather Page

Lodging seems to be the biggest dilemma. Some properties are already sold out over certain dates between August 19th and the 22nd. August is already one of the busiest times of year to be in the area, add on a major astronomical event, Good Luck!!! Most major hotel chains do not release rooms until about a year out, so there are still rooms available.

stargazing at the center for the arts

Many domestic travelers will be stunned to find that the majority of lodging will be booked up by the time most wake up to the fact that this is a big event.

The town of Jackson’s proximity the eclipse’s path makes it one of the more dramatic places to observe it from. The natural beauty of the area provides ample locations for amazing photo opportunities. Be prepared for large crowds to inundate the valley. The eclipse will pass almost directly over the Grand Teton itself. The best viewing being North of town from Gros Ventre Junction to the North end of Jackson Lake.

Thin Air Shakespeare 2017

Posted on: July 13th, 2017 by thcAdmin No Comments

July 7th, 8th, 9th then again on the 14th, 15th, & 16th

“The Tempest is this years feature for Thin Air Shakespeare. Showing at the Center for the Arts’ outdoor lawn venue. The lawn opens for seating at 6:30pm with the show commencing at 7:30pm. Bring a blanket and picnic dinner along to enjoy. Be sure to get there a little early to ensure you get a good spot. A bit of bug spray is recommended. The intimate space makes for fabulous viewing. The experience is wonderful, I look forward to this opportunity each Summer. The best part……it is free!!!

The director has put a wonderful twist/flavor into this version of Shakespeare’s classic. The Tempest is set on a remote island, the sorcerer Prospero, rightful Duke of Milan, plots to restore his daughter Miranda to her rightful place using illusion and skillful manipulation. He conjures up a storm, the eponymous tempest, to lure his usurping brother Antonio and the complicit King Alonso of Naples to the island. There, his machinations bring about the revelation of Antonio’s lowly nature, the redemption of the King, and the marriage of Miranda to Alonso’s son, Ferdinand.

Kicking off during the Summer of 2013, Thin Air Shakespeare is a community favorite. The setting is unique and the experience wonderful.

My favorite is the philly cheese steaks or cheeseburgers at the Rocky Mountain Ministries food booth.

A collection of rides and games can be found around the fair’s “midway” that are sure to thrill children and adults.

Figure 8 Races seem to be a big hit with locals and visitors. In years past the Demolition Derby was the Sunday night featured event. Soon after the introduction of of the Figure 8’s, it replaced the Derby.

This event combines the smash and crash of a derby with a little finese. Cars race around a figure 8 track where “rubbin’ is racin’!” A fireworks display concludes the fair on Sunday evening. Come on out and enjoy our fair!
