FOUR SEASONS RESORT JACKSON HOLE

One of only five mountain resorts in America with a Forbes Travel five-star rating, the Four Seasons Resort Jackson Hole is located just a mile from the entrance of Grand Teton National Park, summer’s hottest destination for mountaineering, hiking, backcountry camping and fishing, linked to nearby Yellowstone National Park by the John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Memorial Parkway. The AAA Five-Diamond ski in-out resort boasts its own ski concierge as well as a dedicated team of naturalists who lead adventures ranging from wildlife safaris, fly fishing and stargazing daily. This marks the first summer guests can enjoy the resort’s new Sweetwater Gondola, which launched in late 2016. During the summer months, the resort features the Picnic in the Park package, which starts at $659 per night and includes complimentary use of a Mercedes-Benz SUV (on a first-come, first-served basis), a seven-day Grand Teton National Park Pass, a customized Four Seasons picnic basket for two, a Gaper Guide audio tour and daily breakfast for two in Westbank Grill.

GRAB DRINKS! Don’t miss a stop at The Handle Bar, a collaboration with celebrity chef Michael Mina, for a beer in a boot (yes, really!) or its nightly whiskey ceremony, which features local Wyoming whiskey.
