Don't miss this eatery with the intriguing menu.
I'm a southerner, and I had to travel to Idaho to eat the best collards I've ever had! Stopped at this unassuming little place and are we glad we did. Friendly, helpful service. The serving portions were HUGE! I had a half size Teton Philly of pork loin, collards, & provolone with a not to be missed side of the collards and mac 'n cheese mashup topped with toasted breadcrumbs. Took leftovers home for dinner that night. Wonderful twists of flavors expertly prepared. The chef, Johnny(?), has a true gift of merging fresh ingredients and flavors. Open year 'round. Menu prices just over $10.00.

Healthy options and tempting sweets
Food menu items are a delicious mix of locally sourced ingredients. Couldn't leave without a doughnut, though. Nice find with varied menu and healthy options, like my favorite, the breakfast sand'w with egg whites and veg! Definitely recommended for a filling start to your day, or a pastry craving.

Drinks & Nightlife
The food was great, I went there for dinner 2 days in a row. And the soup both days was fantastic. This is a bar with a lot of tables and locals in it and it has an 8' pool table. It was great fun but the food was the main attraction.

You can't go wrong with having drinks and dinner outside at the base of a mountain. The seared salmon was very, very good and it was great to try whiskey from a WY distillery. And as you'd expect, the staff throughout the Four Seasons was friendly and helpful as well.

Shopping
When in town, this is always a "must stop" location. Beautiful store filled with unique home goods, jewelry and accessories. Many items are made in the USA, and also, locally. Great place for gifts and even better, for yourself. It can be high end but really, a very special store. If you see something you like, it's probably a good idea to purchase it. It just might not be there when you return. Stock does change from time to time. They do gift wrap if you request it for your purchase.

Easy to book with owner, Kevin. Does not charge credit card until flight is completed. Confirms night before if weather will be good to fly. Picked us up EARLY in large van to take us to launch sight. Took off on a perfect morning to watch the sun rise over the beautiful Teton mountains. Very knowledgable about the area and where to safely land. Even flew over the house we were renting! After a perfect landing we enjoyed a champagne toast and yummy nibbles while Kevin told us fascinating facts about ballooning and flying history. Terrific experience! Highly recommend!

We hiked this trail our second day in Jackson Hole and it did not disappoint. Not very crowded, but enough fellow hikers to not feel so alone deep in bear country. Lots of bear "evidence" but we did not see any, unfortunately (I really wanted to!). Definitely take bear spray. On the way in, we met a young lady who saw a "brown bear" up close and she had no bear spray. Needless to say she was ready to leave. Phelps Lake overlook offers a breathtaking view. We hiked the lake loop and watched a few jumping off the rock. As other reviewers have noted, I also recommend taking lots of water.

Took the ferry across Jenny Lake and by the time we were done we were VERY glad we did. This is a LONG hike 15+ miles with about 3000 ft elevation gain, and goes up to 9000ft elevation so oxygen is not as plentiful!
If you are in decent shape do this hike. As beautiful as Cascade Canyon is (and it IS beautiful) easily the better views are along the North Fork ascending to Lake Solitude. End of July and there was almost no snow at all, only one very small area near the top. Lake was all water too. LOTS of mosquitoes around the lake but that was the only place we ran into them.
You will be exhausted but exhilarated!

Jackson's original town site, built in 1915 has a livery stable, we are currently Jackson's oldest building! It wasn't until 1918 that we were converted into a Yellow Stone stage coach, taking visitors to and from this historic park. Two years later, in 1920, we became the Model T Ford Dealership. As 1930 rolled along the theatre became a bowling ally, mercantile, and local post office (original PO Boxes still on our premises)...
