Jackson Hole Nordic Trails Featured on JH EcoTours Blog
Make the most of winter in Jackson Hole.
‘Some of the best nordic skiing in the country can be found below the towering peaks of Grand Teton National Park. From the Bradley-Taggart Trailhead 14 miles of groomed trail await for classic or skate skiing. Many nordic skiers will enjoy traveling off trail to follow the meanders of Cottonwood Creek or visit the Lucas Fabian Homestead.
For those not wishing to ski, snowshoeing is an easy activity for any ability level to encounter the winter wonderland of Jackson Hole as well. One of our favorite areas to explore is the Granite Canyon Trailhead near Jackson Hole Mountain Resort.’ -Excerpt from Jackson Hole Ecotours Blog.

Panoramic Paradise!
Whichever way your gaze wanders today on your Nordic adventure, you will see nothing but beautiful pristine winter, beckoning you onwards and fulfilling your quest to tune the body and clear the mind; just another great day to ski in paradise.
What you will discover on the journey today is over 12 kilometers of Pisten Bully groomed trails, mostly with classic tracks. The fields and National Forest trails all received double passes today while yesterday’s classic tracks on the rest of the woods are still pristine, skate lanes did receive a PB buff. The classic track distance is once again today at a season high.
As of noon the temperature was -11ºC/12ºF with a partly cloudy sky and calm winds. If all goes according to plan, look for the East Fields to be groomed sometime this week.

All trails are open and skiing should be great through Wednesday. Early season conditions and occasional soft spots will continue to persist until more snow accumulates. Classic tracks will likely be set by this Wednesday or Thursday, as we’ll be continuing to compact and harvest snow onto the trails in the meantime. Also, the sled hill and snowshoeing areas are now open, which will both be on the soft side due to recent snows. Enjoy!
Classic Tracks Set: NO
Snowshoeing : Open
Sled Hill: Open
