Snow King Mountain

5 year old took lessons with Walter Wunderly and he was great with kids and very personable. Ensured my daughter had fun as well as learning how to ski. By the end of the 2 hour lesson she was able to ski down the bunny slope, turn, and stop at the end.

My husband and I brought our 4 year old daughter to ski for the first time. We had a wonderful instructor, Walter, who had our daughter go from never having seen skis before to skiing down the bunny slopes in 3 days. We did 3 2-hour private lessons. We are thrilled, she loves it! The mountain was beautiful and a very chill vibe. The mountain itself is steep but they have manageable runs.

We had the most amazing snowboarding lesson with Vicente. He was very patient with us and made sure he explained things simply and easily. My husband caught on in just 20 minutes! This mountain is beautiful. We had such a great experience and would love to come back with our kiddos next time. Be sure to grab a breakfast burrito from Hayden’s Post before hitting the slopes because they are soooo good.

This is my husband and I’s first time visiting jackson and our very first time skiing. We did a private lesson with Karen and she was amazing. She was extremely patient with us and helped us gain lots of confidence. We loved our experience and we hope to get to do it again sometime!

Today we took the ski lift to the top of Snow King Mountain. The ride took around 15 minutes and offered great views on the way up. The slopes at the top are quite steep, and we saw a few local skiers heading down which was great to watch. Be prepared though, it’s noticeably colder at the top, so make sure you’re dressed for it! There is a coffee shop and a restaurant at the summit, but note that the coffee shop closes at 3:00pm, and there isn’t really anywhere to sit and just relax while taking in the stunning views of Jackson, which would have really added to the experience. The restaurant doesn’t open until 4:30pm, though I can imagine it would be an amazing place to dine. There was some fresh, soft snow that the kids loved playing in, and the restrooms were very clean. Overall, definitely worth doing on a clear day for the views and the experience!
