Before you travel to Wyoming, it's important to keep track of the forecast so you know what to pack. Jackson's busiest season is summertime (particularly in July and August) when warm, sunny days are abundant. Fall months are often unpredictable, with snowstorms arriving as early as mid-October and as late as December. Winter runs from December through mid-April and features frequent snow and frigid temperatures. Luckily, Jackson Hole offers plenty of fun things to do during every season!

Whether you're planning a romantic couple's weekend or fun family vacation, Jackson Hole truly has something for everyone.
