Grand Targhee Resort is proposing an expansion that would increase its skiable acreage by 50%, while at the same time hopefully preserving its low-key atmosphere.
The plan proposes new chairlifts, new restaurants, more snowmaking, a zip line, an aerial adventure course and more.
Owner and General Manager Geordie Gillett told the Jackson Hole News and Guide he’s aware the expansion plans raise concerns for local authorities but he says the resort has no intention of ruining the low-key experience it provides customers.
As part of the process, the proposal has to be accepted under the National Environmental Protection Act and pass an environmental assessment before it can be pursued. Gillett anticipates work could begin during the summer of 2021 if the plan is approved.
