The Final Mile
  • Teton Village Hub: The majority of road transport terminates at the Teton Village clocktower. The 'START' (Southern Teton Area Rapid Transit) bus connects the town of Jackson to the resort.
  • Ride-Share Alert: Uber and Lyft are available but can be very expensive and scarce during morning 'powder alerts.' Pre-booked taxis are more reliable for airport runs.
  • Logistics Tip: If staying in the town of Jackson, use the 'START Bus' gear racks located on the outside of the bus; they are designed for wide powder skis.

Navigating with Gear: The “Ski or Snowboard Bag Problem”

Our team found that Jackson Hole Airport is one of the few inside a National Park.

  • The START Bus: This is a great budget option, but it can be a squeeze with large ski bags during the morning rush.
  • Teton Pass: If driving from Idaho, be aware that the pass can close frequently due to snow.
