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. -------- Bob Turner RV-10 QB Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=505838#505838 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 09:01:11 AM PST US From: David Maib Subject: Re: RV10-List: Jackson Hole 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.
