Jackson, Wyoming
Situated in a high-valley habitat and renowned for its dramatic Teton Range scenery, the upscale Western town of Jackson, Wyoming is the gateway to Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. The town is famous for its world-class skiing at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, which features the longest continuous vertical rise of any ski area in the country. Nearby is the National Elk Refuge, the largest elk preserve in North America, and four massive arches made from thousands of naturally shed elk antlers are in the Jackson Town Square.
The Town Square Tavern in the photo above, operated for over a decade and closed in November 2017. The space has since reopened as the Roadhouse Brewing Co. Pub and Eatery. The town offers a cowboy chic vibe, blending rugged Western culture with luxury amenities.
[Note: Jackson is the town, while Jackson Hole is the entire 60-mile-long valley surrounded by mountains in which the town sits. Because the town is the main hub of the valley, people often use the names interchangeably, though they technically refer to different things.]
