Whether or not one is a skier, there is one place in the U.S. that skiers and non-skiers would enjoy visiting. That is Jackson Hole and the town of Jackson, Wyoming.
Besides being near to Grand Teton National Park, Jackson is a great place to do some shopping and eating.

It is nestled in the valley of Jackson Hole. I was last there during the summer three years ago. I was able to do some shopping and partaking in cuisines in Jackson. We stayed at a KOA Kampground situated on the Snake River south of town. While there, I did some whitewater rafting.
