Angry, I have had some of the best snow and some of the worst snow at JH.  I do believe the bus system is more than adequate if you don't want to rent a car (although I've never used it).  

Only reason I would rent a car is if you want to venture over to Targhee.  Also a great resort, minus some of the technical aspects.  Hope you can make it out there.  It's one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.

Food and drinks in town are very reasonable.  Billy's Burgers is a must stop, that place is great.  There are also several fast good joints around the area if you want to do it on the cheap.  You can walk the entire town, so don't waste money on cabs or a rental car, unless of course you are driving in.

I really want to try this out next season, but I'm not sure if I can handle riding so much pow.  Is a taxi ride from the airport to the lodging location a reasonable price?  Otherwise I would probably rather rent a car on the cheap.

Neither JH or Targhee have much if anything for parks. The "Stash" is at Jackson but it's fairly advanced, the smaller parks are well, small. Although if you are going to Jackson to putz around in the park you might want to rethink your trip

I dunno if i'd call it gangster... but the mandatory drop in is what scares most people off.  My idiot buddy(skier) somehow fell backwards and upside down on the drop in..luckily he didn't F himself up.... was pretty entertaining to watch from just past the landing zone.  Once you're down in it, its not bad.. just steep.

The whole looker's left side of the mtn is rad...and then theres some fun glade/tree stuff far right.  stash parks are somewhat in the middle.  mangy moose is fun place for apre up at the mtn... also theres a bar/rest. right by the tram with a huge deck thing thats pretty fun too.  As far as bars in town.. gotta check out the cowboy for sure.. the virginian is pretty fun as well.  Bar up at snowking is a bit more low key but still fun as well.

I guess that's a true statement.  But you should at least ride the tram once.  Just to do it.

other than just for the ride... theres no point in riding the tram if you aren't going to do corbetts.... no point in standing in line when u can take other lifts and ski your way over to the goods....

Gonna do just two days of boarding and a day of snowmobiling. Any advice on what runs/what sections of the mountain to hit?

JH discount tickets are pretty hard to come across.  Some of the hotels might have minor discounts.  If you stay in Jackson and not the village it's a little cheaper and there are buses that will take you to the mountain for around $6 I think (i've never taken them).  You can also catch Snow King in Jackson for some night riding if you didn't get enough during the day.  If you rent a car you can make the trip to Grand Targhee as well, lift tickets are cheaper and they have some good terrain.  Neither JH or Targhee have much if anything for parks.  The "Stash" is at Jackson but it's fairly advanced, the smaller parks are well, small.  Although if you are going to Jackson to putz around in the park you might want to rethink your trip =)

Flights in to Jackson are pretty pricey, but it's a hell of a view flying in.
