FOR FUN:
If you are an outdoor enthusiast Turpin Meadow Ranch is the place for you!  

With stunning views of the Tetons out the front door and Wyoming’s second-largest Wilderness Area out the back door, there is never a moment of dullness. Turpin Meadow is 15 miles from the entrance of Grand Teton National Park and 40 miles to the south boundary entrance of Yellowstone National Park. With three National Forest trail-heads within walking distance, you will quickly be on your way to exploring the back-country.

There is world-class riding, biking, fishing, climbing, hiking, and camping in Jackson Hole.  Multi-sport days are a regular thing around these parts, it is not unheard of to climb, bike, and raft all on the same day.  By night enjoy a campfire with some good friends or treat yourself to a delicious meal at one of Jackson’s favorite foodie restaurants. The ranch is located about an hour away from the town of Jackson where every night is Friday night!  

For those who are creative, there is a vibrant art scene present.  Multiple art fairs come through Jackson in addition to live theater and music.  Many concerts are free.  There is also a great center for the arts in town which offers a variety of classes in almost every medium and brings shows in from across the country and the world.
