We came in from the west, so Driggs ID, is an alternative for us. Need a rental
car. Jackson Hole looks a lot closer to the ski area but in fact there is a wildlife
refuge you have to drive around, so Driggs isnt that many car miles further
and it is less expensive. But to your question: Jackson Hole is in a broad,
flat valley. No issues maneuvering. Keep density altitude in mind in the summer.

We flew into Jackson Hole in the summer of 2019. Came from the SE. Once we cleared
the final ridge, (I think we were about 11000 ft) the approach into the valley
was very comfortable. Plenty of maneuvering room and the view is magnificent.
I was having a minor alternator issue that showed up while on approach. The
FBO was extremely helpful. They sent a mechanic down to help me troubleshoot.
Minor connection issue was quickly identified, he helped me secure it, check
operation, reinstall the cowling. All no charge! I tipped him nicely before
leaving. We are looking forward to going back. BTW, the flight out heading north
to Bozeman, was spectacular.
