Amazing skiing and views, not to be missed!
We had been told by avid skiers that if we were in the area, this place was NOT to be missed. We are so glad we took their advice and made a 3 night stop at this resort. We had just skied 5 days at Big Sky and we were on our way to Jackson Hole. Grand Targhee is not on Ikon, but the $115 lift ticket is worth every penny. There are only 3 lifts, but those 3 lifts offer so much open beautiful terrain. We did not have the powder that they are famous for but it really didn’t matter to us. There were no lift lines at all. The main lodge is small and the bathrooms and locker situation could use some updating. We took a private lesson with Tuffy ( I skied the morning and my husband skied the afternoon) which was the highlight of my trip. I learned so much in my 1/2 day and it has served me well here in Jackson Hole. Thank you Tuffy!!!!! Since everything is so close we put our boots on in the car and walked to the lifts. Parking is also free which is great. We can’t wait to return !

A jewel of a ski resort
First Time at the Ghee and certainly not my last. After a week in Jackson Hole I decided to try Grand Targhee, as I had read and heard some good things. After an interesting drive across the pass( very snowy day, I arrived at a little bit of paradise. Low key is an understatement BUT amazing snow, good facilities and most of all NO people. I stayed on mountain at teh lodge, which as a solo traveller was great. Clean, ski in ski out , with a great communal area to hang out between runs. teh food outlets all exceeded expectations with great service and really good food. Lift passes very reasonable compared to JH and Utah and while only 6 lifts across teh whole mountain, I view this as a positive as gives great freedom Now to main event. skiing was amazing. i call it a freestyle mountain. while there are lots of well groomed runs, you can ski pretty much the whole mountain and with teh great snow coverage when i went, it meant you were skiing on your own and hardly any moguls as no one skiing same place The reputation that mountain can get fogged in is fair as some bare parts of mountain so no trees to help clarity. I went at a particularly snowy period so visibility was low at times, but weather seemed to roll past , so after 15 mins or so blouse sky would appear again certainly not as challenging as Jackson Hole, but I take the freedom anyway, plus there are plenty of great and challenging runs for all but the most expert skier and there is always cat skiing to wet your appetite now please dont tell anyone how good mountain is !
