You\u2019ve read the brochures, done the research, and yes heard the stories of how Jackson Hole is one of the best skiing destinations in the country and the world, but there\u2019s just one catch you don\u2019t ski or snowboard. Don\u2019t worry there is still plenty to do in this beautiful and picturesque Teton town. We\u2019ll let you in a little secret there are plenty of locals who never ski or board in the winter and still choose to live here because it\u2019s one of the most beautiful places around. So if you don\u2019t like to ski or just need a day to recover from the slopes, we proudly present the Non-Skiers guide to Jackson Hole.<\/p>\n

Outdoors<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Just because you don\u2019t want to be on the mountain skiing doesn’t mean you have to be stuck inside all day at the lodge drinking hot cocoa, although that can be fun too. Below you\u2019ll find plenty of outdoor activities to get you out and about in this winter wonderland we call Jackson Hole.<\/p>\n

\"Snowshoeing<\/a>Snowshoeing<\/strong><\/p>\n

Snowshoeing is a great way to get outside, enjoy the amazing mountain views, see some wildlife, and get some exercise all at the same time. Think of it as a form of winter hiking that is suitable for just about all ages and makes a great family activity.<\/p>\n

For the full snowshoeing experience head into Grand Teton National Park<\/a>. The Park offers plenty of trails and opportunities whether you go with your own group or book a trip. Make sure to pack plenty of water, snacks, extra clothing, sunscreen, sunglasses, headlamp, map, and a first aid kit. If you book a trip with a local outfitter many of these items will be supplied, but still be sure to dress for the cold temps and preferably in layers. Just remember proper etiquette is to keep your snowshoes out of the ski track and to hike parallel to any ski track. Entry to the park is $25 for vehicles and is good for 7 days. If you are weary of going in to the Park by yourself you can book a trip with The Hole Hiking Experience<\/a>. They offer several packages from 2, 4, or 6 hours in length. Tours include snowshoe rentals as well as snacks and or lunch. For more info on their packages check them out at holehike.com or click on the Grand Teton National Park\u2019s website at nps.gov\/grte.<\/p>\n

Snowmobiling<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you are looking for a bit more adventure than a walk through the woods then hop on a fully loaded and equipped snow machine and get after it. The terrain and possibilities are literally endless. With a ton of packages and snowmobile companies you\u2019ll be sure to find the right tour for you and your family. Possibilities include tours in Yellowstone National Park, Granite Hot Springs, or Togwotee Pass to name just a few. You can stay on the comfort of groomed trails or get after all that off trail powder. Here are some guiding companies to get you started:<\/p>\n
