Teton Village is 12 miles northwest of Jackson on WY 390 at the base of 10,536 foot Rendezvous Peak. For skiers, it's the largest vertical rise in America - 4,139 feet. The village is identified by its 100-foot tall clock tower at the Valley Station of the two and one-half mile, 63-passenger aerial tram. It is one of America's most scenic and popular four-season recreation areas.
In summer, Teton Village is a favorite jumping-off spot for Jackson Hole vacation trips. Teton Village facilities include swimming pools, restaurants, shops, cafeteria, ski school, hotels & motels, condominiums, service station and various other shops. Hunting trips and float trips can be arranged at the area. There is horseback riding and hiking at the area also, with golf and other activities available within minutes driving time. Tramway summer sightseeing trips are available. The summer season extends from Memorial Day to September, and the winter season from mid-December to early April.
Powwow is the steady thump of beaters on a hide-covered drum, a cadence of mixed voices singing in Arapaho, Shoshone, Crow, or Lakota, and the sweep and swirl of men and boys wearing brightly colored regalia, of young girls with fringed shawls, older women dressed in buckskin, even tiny tots in beaded moccasins and creamy white buckskin outfits. Begun as a ritual gathering of spiritual leaders and medicine men, powwow is now a social event. read more
