3 Kids, 25 Miles: A Jackson Hole Biking Adventure
Seven years ago, my wife and I set out to bike from Jackson to Teton Village and back. It's a nice, not-too-intimidating 25 miles or so. We completed it in an afternoon, grabbed some dinner, and settled in for a cozy night here at Flat Creek Inn. You can read about our biking adventure right here. But of course, we're not here to rehash an old blog post. Because we did it again this year ... only with three small kids in tow—ages 5, 3, and 1. Follow along on our adventure to discover how w...

Jackson Hole Birdwatching: No Better Place for Birds
Guess what: you don’t have to be a guy going through a midlife crisis to get into birdwatching.

Jackson Hole Old West Days isn’t just a collection of events—it’s a full-scale immersion into Western culture, complete with elk antlers, chili competitions,...

Biking with Kids Under 5 is Going to Be Great
Seven years ago, my husband and I biked the thirty miles from Flat Creek Inn in Jackson, WY, to Teton Village and back. It’s a trip we still reminisce about fondly. Now, spring is here, and our family is doing it again. But here’s a twist: this time we’ll be biking with kids: our three girls, ages 5, 3, and 1! We plan to bike the Jackson Hole Community Pathway System. This path is an extensive network of paved trails (over 65 miles!) in and around Jackson. It connects neighborhoods,...

You’ll Love Visiting Jackson Hole in Spring
If you’re wondering why Jackson Hole in spring is the best time to visit, the answer is simple: fewer crowds, active wildlife, and a quieter, more relaxed iteration of one of the West’s most iconic destinations. (And if you weren't wondering, well, you should have been.) Spring squeezes itself right on the edge of peak season. It's not quite summer and not quite winter, but it brings with it the best of both. Wildlife Wildlife is one of Jackson's biggest draws any time of the year...
