Vertical Foot Challenge
Jackson Hole Mountain Resort first introduced the Vertical Foot Club over 30 years ago and has over 3000 active members. To participate, pick up a scorecard at the Guest Service Center when you arrive in Teton Village. Enter the vertical feet you ski or snowboard on the scorecard, and win great prizes! Even if you don’t win a prize, feel the glory of all the mileage you ski or snowboard. Please visit the Guest Services Center for more information.
Mountain Host Tours
Our Mountain Hosts will take your group on a 2-hour tour of Après Vous and Rendezvous Mountains. The Mountain Orientation Tour familiarises the intermediate or better skier with the various chairlifts and terrain suited to their skiing ability. We recommend taking this tour the first day your group hits the hill. Reservations are required. Mountain Orientation Tours leave from the base of the ski area at 9:30 am daily.
