Downhill Tours: Skiing and Snowboarding

This area has some of the best backcountry terrain for all levels of snow enthusiasts. Combine this with easy access, spectacular views and some of the greatest powder in the world, and you get a backcountry paradise! Under our personal and exclusive attention, participants will enjoy an educational and memorable day of skiing or snowboarding on Teton Pass or in Grand Teton National Park. We also offer Backcountry Safety Day Clinics.

Teton Pass

Interested in maximum vertical with minimum approach? Try a tour on Teton Pass. Large open bowls and long ridges allow for ample opportunity to work on deep powder technique. For novices, a tour on the south side of Teton Pass provides an easy approach to low-angled slopes for your first telemark turns. Experts can enjoy a climb and descent off Mt. Glory, Mt. Taylor or turns in Thanksgiving and Edelweiss bowls.

Peaks in the Park

Intermediate to advanced skiers can join us in Grand Teton National Park for the challenge of a good climb and a long run. Whether you choose Maverick Ridge, the locals' favorite, 25' Short, or Mt. Albright (10,552') you will enjoy incredible views of the Grand Teton before the 3,000 foot descent back to the valley floor.

The Backcountry Safety Clinic

This tour focuses on how to travel safely in the winter mountain environment. We offer hands-on training using avalanche transceivers, snow-pit analysis, map reading and route-finding skills. You can extend the educational experience into an overnight hut tour if you like. Price includes educational materials.

Scenic Tours: Cross-Country Skiing & Snowshoeing

Join us for a memorable day of cross-country skiing or snowshoeing in Grand Teton National Park. Nothing can be as unforgettable as gliding or snowshoeing through snowy forests and meadows framed by the Tetons. You will experience first hand why this area is so well loved by photographers and outdoor enthusiasts.

Our friendly naturalist guides are happy to break trail for you. En route you’ll learn to identify animal tracks in the snow. Learn about the science of snow as we dig in the snow pack and show you snow crystals through a hand-lens. We’ll teach you how to stay warm and comfortable in a winter environment. Price includes a deli lunch, hot drinks, snowshoes, poles, pack and water. You provide warm hiking boots or cross-country boots and skis. Bring your camera and extra warm layers.
