Power for the way home.
Between train tickets, directions, and photos, our phones had a full itinerary, too. A portable charger belongs in the day bag, with its charging cable.
Read the packing noteA week on the mountain
Jackson Hole.
Teton Village · Wyoming
Condo breakfasts, full days on the slopes, and waffles above the clouds. Five days in Jackson Hole, with a few shortcuts we would absolutely use again.
Angela’s take
The trip I’d
tell a friend about.
Jackson Hole works best when you stop trying to maximize every meal and every run. Stay close to the mountain, front-load groceries, book one dinner you are excited about, and let the rest stay easy.
xo, AngelaDo it again
Stay in Teton Village, order groceries before arrival, and use rental delivery.
A note for next time
Order dinner earlier on the first full ski day so nobody waits around hungry.
The memory that stays
The tram ride to Corbet's Cabin for waffles with the whole mountain below you.

01Teton Village
02Jackson Hole Mountain Resort
03Jackson
01Friday, March 6, 2026Travel in, settle fast, ski-rental shortcut
- 5:00 AM departure for the airport and park at Fast Park & Relax in Austin.
- United flight UA211 from Austin departs at 9:08 AM, lands in Denver at 10:32 AM, then United UA2193 leaves at 11:45 AM and arrives in Jackson at 1:21 PM.
- Uber to the VRBO, drop bags, and walk into delivered groceries right as you arrive around 4:00 PM after delays.
- Mountain Direct drops ski rentals at 5:00 PM, which saves the first-night scramble.
- Go into town for wine and extra basics under Mangy Moose, then keep dinner simple in the condo with fiesta stack.
02Saturday, March 7, 2026Full ski day, early dinner planning next time
- Breakfast at the condo, ski all day, and come back for lunch.
- Dinner is Teton Thai, but the move next time is to order earlier or get there sooner because the evening pickup ran long.
03Sunday, March 8, 2026Tram waffles and the best dinner of the trip
- Breakfast in the condo, then ski until the late-morning tram ride up to Corbet's Cabin.
- Get waffles at Corbet's Cabin around 10:30 AM and push lunch later because nobody will need a real meal right away.
- Late snack at Casper Restaurant, then take the START bus into Jackson for antler photos, shops, and dinner at Roosevelt's.
04Monday, March 9, 2026Keep it easy
- Breakfast in the condo, ski, grab lunch at Mangy Moose, and finish the remaining condo food for dinner.
05Tuesday, March 10, 2026Clean exit day
- Pack up and check out by 10:00 AM.
- Take the shuttle to Teton Village, then the START bus to the airport.

A few pages from the camera roll
The in-between
is the good part.
Real moments from this trip. The views, the meals, and being there together.
Save yourself a little research
The notes
worth keeping.
Ride the tram and get waffles at Corbet's Cabin by late morning.
01
Book one excellent dinner in Jackson, then let the condo do the rest.
02
Use the START bus when you want town time without parking friction.
03
Treat Mangy Moose as a reliable lunch stop, not the whole personality of the trip.
Pack a little smarter
Less “did we
forget…?”
