Ski season kicks off the day after Thanksgiving or the weekend preceding it with Grand Targhee opening on November 20th and Jackson Hole Mountain Resort on November 27th. Snow King's opening day will be December 4th. But aside from the obvious thrills that late November and December bring to powder hounds, there is a lot of non-skiing fun going on, too. You can take in a live show at the Center for the Arts or Jackson Hole Playhouse, duck into a holiday craft fair, or watch Santa bring smiles to young and old alike in Town Square and out in Teton Village.
Check out the offerings that are happening over the next two months!
