About the Jackson Hole Nordic Alliance

We connect, inspire and inform our community and visitors

JHNordic publishes real-time information and curates resources so you can access information on Nordic/cross-country ski and winter trails, trail maps, grooming, and places to explore and have fun via human-powered recreation all in one place. We bring you local expertise and focus on sustainable, inclusive, responsible winter trail recreation.

Jackson Hole, Teton Valley, and Grand Teton National Park offer endless possibilities for winter trail recreation—cross-country skiing, fat biking, snowshoeing, walking your dog, and trail running. The trails are easily accessible, everyone is welcome to use them and there is something for everyone to enjoy: machine-groomed skate and classic track skiing, skier-tracked trails for touring, machine-groomed single-track for fat biking, hard-packed forest service roads for multiple-use travel, and untracked backcountry trails. Winter is a beautiful time to explore the Greater Teton Region, whether for solitude, a social outing, a work-out, or discovery.

We welcome your input and reviews on favorite winter trail places, trail routes, maps, descriptions, photos, trip reports, resources, good gear, tips for all types of “skinny skiing”, fat biking, winter trail outings, from beginner to advanced – on the trail and off, groomed, skier tracked and untracked. Write to JH Nordic Alliance at: hello@JHNordic.com

Jackson Hole Nordic Alliance, is a community-driven organization, serving as ambassadors for human-powered winter recreation and stewards of the places where our community recreates. JHNordic.com, the JHNA website, is a comprehensive information hub for responsible winter trail recreation in Jackson Hole and the Greater Teton Region. We welcome your input and contributions. Thanks for your support!
