4. Jackson Hole, Wyoming
Prefer to avoid the crowds and craziness of other popular ski destinations? Then this is where you should plan your next ski getaway. Jackson Hole’s out-of-the-way location (near Yellowstone National Park and four hours from Salt Lake City) make it still feel untouched in ways other mountains are. Your best bet will certainly be Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, where you’ll find 116 trails, half of which are at the expert level. Beginners not to worry, there are plenty of non-expert runs too. Get a lay of the land with a complimentary Mountain Tour, available everyday at 9:30 a.m.
Where to Spa: Solitude Spa at Teton Mountain Lodge
Reconnect at the three-storey spa at Teton Mountain Lodge where natural elements are incorporated into all aspects of your experience, including the treatments. You’ll find a tranquility lounge, steam rooms, an indoor and outdoor pool, plus five hot tubs (two of which are outdoors). Combat the cool air with their Fusion Super Hydration Facial ($190) designed to create a luminous effect.
