Location

Grand Targhee sits high on the western flank of the Teton Range in northwest Wyoming, just over the Idaho line near Driggs. This is high-alpine, continental interior country, set well above the surrounding valleys.

Getting there

Moderate to reach

Fly into Jackson Hole (JAC), about 1.5 hours from the resort by road.

The road from Jackson runs over Teton Pass, which can close in winter; the detour via Idaho Falls adds significant time.
