The Jackson Hole Aerial Tram

One of the most iconic lifts in the world and the linchpin of the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort dream. Enjoy this inside look at running and maintaining the Aerial Tram.

Big Red, is the second tram of its kind at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. In 2006, after forty years of service, we retired the first tram and began building the new bigger and sleeker version, which currently runs today. The original Tram held 52 people and took 10.5 minutes to reach the summit, while the new tram holds 100 and takes just about 9 minutes to the top.
