How to Stay Warm in Jackson Hole

There may be a winter storm rolling through Jackson Hole, but that doesn’t have to freeze your vacation plans.

Keep your plans intact with winter-ready retail and dining options at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. With plenty of ways to stay warm, JHMR is ready to help you make the most of chilly temperatures.

We’ve outlined the best ways you can stay warm this week:

Inversions

1) Before heading out of the door, check to see if there’s an inversion. On cold winter days when valley temperatures hover around 0 degrees or below, you should always check the upper elevation temperatures as they can be as much as 30-40 degrees higher during an inversion than at the bottom of the mountain. Forecasts on sites like mountainweather.com are helpful in preparing ahead, while checking Snow & Weather Report and JH Insider should be part of your daily ski routine to check live temperatures before you leave the door.

Heated gloves and socks

Winter veterans know that the key to warmth is layering, and JHMR’s Teton Village Sports and JH Sports have the gear you need from the industry’s best brands. At JH Sports, try on Rab’s Conduit ¼ Zip or Mammut’s Aconcagua ML Tight for a toasty fit. Or pop on over to Teton Village Sports to layer with Norrona’s Lyngen Down 850 Hood and Devold’s Kvitegga Baselayers. You can get heated gloves and socks at both locations, with offerings from Hestra and Lenz.

Hot Drinks

But piling on clothes isn’t the only way to retain heat —a warm drink can do the trick too. For a piping hot treat, stop by Café 6311 in the morning to grab a steaming cup of hot chocolate. And for even bigger smiles, visit Tram Dock, where you can get great deals on drinks and food during Happy Hour, beginning at 3 p.m.
