| As with most American towns, Jackson Hole has shops that sell just about everything you can imagine from oriental rugs to cowboyboots but what Jackson is realy great for is its outdoor wear shops and art galleries. For outdoor clothing head to Teton Mountaineering and Moosely Seconds, where you can get great discounts. The Images of Nature Gallery is where you will find Tom Mangelsens lovely wildlife photographs. A great place to buy sculptures and paintings is the Wilcox Gallery. |
