Backcountry Skiing in Wyoming — Guided Teton Ski Tours & Courses from Jackson Hole

World-Class Backcountry Skiing in the Tetons

The Teton Range is one of the most iconic backcountry skiing destinations on the planet. Deep, consistent snowfall, dramatic steep terrain, and easy access from Jackson Hole make the Tetons a magnet for backcountry skiers and splitboarders from around the world. The Mountain Guides have been leading backcountry ski programs in the Tetons since our earliest years, and our guides know this terrain intimately — from the classic lines on Teton Pass to the alpine objectives deep in Grand Teton National Park. As the only AMGA-accredited guide service in Jackson Hole, we bring the highest standard of professional instruction to every tour.

Avalanche Education & Women’s Programs

All of TMG’s Jackson Hole AIARE courses are listed here because avalanche education is inseparable from backcountry skiing.
