The Hole Hiking Experience — Local services in Jackson

Being an area with plentiful outdoors there are a good choice of guides to pick from and after alot of research we picked The Hole Hiking Experience. From the beginning of the booking to the end of the tour the communication was fantastic with confirmations on times and locations to what equipment we needed and what they supplied. The snow shoes were in great condition and sized correctly and fanny packs, water and snacks were all offered. Belinda was our guide and was a long time local so knew alot of information and was very passionate about the outdoors, wildlife and never failed to answer our questions. This is a guided educational tour and so was not just about snowshoeing the entire time. We stopped and investigated animal tracks and signs, viewed and discussed the local flora, fauna, geology and history before reaching our half way point and an amazing view of the Teton's. Belinda allowed plenty of time to take photo's along the route with no need to rush. Overall this was an amazing excursion which we will remember for...

3 of us had a great experience snow shoeing with Chelsea as our guide! The scenery was beautiful. Chelsea’s knowledge of the trees, the Tetons and just about everything we asked about was amazing! The hike was just over 3 miles total for the half day. We stopped along the way to learn and cool down. Be sure to wear layers so you can peel off as needed with physical exertion. Our hike was the Explorer and it was easily managed even with one gentleman in his 50’s with a finicky knee and a 22 yr old with a hip that can be problematic. The guide paces according to who is on the hike and what their preferences are. The temp was around 4 -18 degrees with no wind and sunny skies. 2 light layers and a medium weight jacket would’ve been enough. The snow was packed down so it was easier to hike it than it would’ve been had there been a bunch of fresh snow. Chelsea had water bottles and a wonderful chocolate chip cookie for each of us! Nice option to explore the terrain and get some...

The premier hiking guide company in Jackson Hole. We opted for a private naturalist guided tour of the Southern Tetons about 30 minutes from downtown Jackson. We we're paired with Beverly, she was excellent. Prompt pick-up at our hotel and van was spacious and comfortable. Beverly was so engaging, personable, and knowledgeable about the areas history, ecology, and conservation. As a naturalist, she exposed us to the many indigenous species of plants and animals. Saw a fox, antelope, and bison on our 2.5 hour moderate hike. Having a guide is 100% worth it as they have access to places off the beaten path. Next time in Jackson Hole I would hire The Hole Hiking Experience in...
