Grand Targhee Ski Resort is well known and only 20 minutes from Driggs. Not only is the skiing great on the backside of the  Tetons, there are lots of activates in the summer at the mountain. The skiers like to buy property on or near Ski Hill Road, aptly named for the road that goes up to Targhee. It is very busy in both the winter and the summer.

In the summer, one can take plane or balloon rides over the Tetons, fish, take a jaunt to Yellowstone or Jackson, golf, hike, ride bikes or horses, and visit the beautiful places that are in eastern Idaho. The temperature in this area is generally in the 80’s in the summer, although occasionally it goes to the high 90’s. Winter temperatures are in the teens and 20’s with cold spells that can get to the single digits.
