Strong winter for Jackson resort

The 2013-2014 winter was good to Jackson Hole Mountain Resort.

JHMR President Jerry Blann called it the “perfect storm.”

“Mother Nature delivered 500 inches of snow, our good fortune of winning the No. 1 SKI Magazine ranking, plus increased air service from 12 U.S. cities all came together to create a great experience for skiers and riders this year,” said Blann.

The snowpack was one of the best in the resort’s nearly 50 years of operation.

And this winter also brought a record amount of skiers. More than 563,000 skier visits surpass the previous record set last winter by 12 percent.
Blann credited the success to the Kemmerer family’s multi-million dollar investments into the resort, as well as the support of the surrounding community.

“We’ve evolved to a consistently strong collaboration between the Wyoming Office of Tourism, Jackson Hole Travel and Tourism Board, Jackson Hole Chamber, JH Air, Central Reservations, Teton Village and the business community in general. Working together makes Jackson Hole a much more attractive destination and led to our joint success this winter,” said Blann.
