Jackson Hole
With miles of national forests in every direction and Grand Teton National Park to the north, the Jackson Hole valley has mostly avoided being affected by the expanding travel sector. Instead, local businesses like forestry, ranching, and, in the 19th century, fur trafficking have helped it endure. However, Jackson Hole has lately promoted the expansion of tourism.
Formerly working-class communities like Jackson and Grand Teton now have renowned art galleries and theaters, and the area has been converted into a burgeoning winter paradise by massive ski resorts. Many individuals don't consider western Wyoming while making travel plans for a lavish trip.
The Jackson Hole region's beauty and size have drawn the attention of politicians like former Vice President Dick Cheney and Hollywood stars like Harrison Ford, even though it lacks the flash and glamor of Aspen or Lake Tahoe. Jackson Hole is still first and foremost the mountainous region's hub, with untamed trails and miles of open space that harken back to a time before the West was conquered, despite its recent and opulent renovation.
