July 19-28, 2019

The Teton County Fair signals the heart of Summer in Jackson Hole. The fair grounds will be humming with activity all week long making this possibly the most entertaining time to visit in Summer. Visitors to area will find all the usual fair delights; rides, 4-H displays, livestock, petting zoo, nightly entertainment. The nightly events including the rodeo, live music, pig wrestling, figure 8 races and more. Parking at the fairgrounds is $10.

There is a food court located inside the main fair grounds with all of your usual delights. I recommend not missing out on some local fixin’s over by the events tent. Located on Snow King Ave., the tent hosts talent shows etc. throughout the day, which provides some entertainment while dining. You will find a large grassy area with some picnic tables located near the “Big Top” events tent.

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. Full throttle action, these guys out the pedal down!!!

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!

Jackson Hole Aerial Tram

Posted on: May 22nd, 2019 by thcAdmin No Comments

Open until October 9, 2018

The Jackson Hole Aerial Tram located in Teton Village offers dramatic views of the valley. A ride to the summit of Rendevous Mountain delivers you to 10450′ above sea level in about 18 minutes. There are a number of hiking trails that can be accessed from the summit. People will often use the tram to gain elevation and access trails for multi-day expeditions that extend into Grand Teton Nation Park.

Marmots are often seen scurrying around once you reach the summit. You are immersed in the Teton Range. On clear days views will extend into Idaho, additionally you can view the Absoroka, Gros Ventre, Big Hole, and Snake River Mountain Ranges. The braided channels of the Snake River lie before you on the valley floor. Wildlife is often spotted on both the ride up and down on the tramway. The tram depart about every 20 minutes.

Grab a waffle at Corbet’s Cabin while soaking up the views. The waffles are often worth the trip alone. Click for more Summer Tram Information. After checking out “the top of the world,” spend some time checking out the base area. Teton Village has remained quite quaint in comparison to other major ski resorts, there is plenty to do, with an ever expanding array of activities being offered.

In the next few years some big changes will be occurring at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, creating an even more diverse atmosphere.
