There are a number of articles listed here that will assist you in gathering an in depth knowledge of what makes Jackson Hole and its surroudings so special.
Today, Jackson Hole is a year-round vacation destination. In summer and fall, the town of Jackson is a gateway to Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks, to national forests and wilderness areas. Visitors hike, bike, ride horseback, fish, climb mountains, marvel at the geysers of Yellowstone, and gape at the stunning Teton mountains.
Scarcely 150 years ago, Jackson Hole was home--in summer and fall only--to small bands of Native Americans and a few fur trappers. Later, the trappers and Indians were replaced by homesteaders who managed to endure winters here while raising beef cattle. But Jackson Hole's future ("hole" was trapper slang for a mountain valley) was determined when those homesteaders realized that dudes (rancher slang for summer tourists) were easier to keep than cattle.
