Curator’s statement
Jackson Hole is one of the most gorgeous backdrops on the planet, home to a stunning mountain range, beautiful lakes and rivers and a plethora of wildlife. Better yet, for adventure lovers, there are an abundance of outdoor activities that can be enjoyed here year round, from hiking to skiing, canoeing to shooting, horseback riding to white water rafting. But what I love most about Jackson Hole is the luxurious accommodations, mouth-watering dining scene and fabulous shopping all peppered in the charm of the classic Old Western Vibe.
