About Debbie & Dan

I am a retired, California native, UCLA trained dentist who finally found what I believe is the most beautiful place in the world to live. My passions of the outdoors through skiing, hiking, horseback riding, boating, fishing, and photography whether it is summer and 80 degrees or winter and 20 degrees, there is never a bad day in Jackson Hole. My assistant and I have owned and personally manage the property from our ranch just 5 miles away since 1997.

Why Debbie & Dan chose Teton Village

Jackson Hole Ski Area is one of the best ski areas in the US. Although I have skied all over the world, I have never been an expert or extreme skier. The variety and expanse of terrain here means that one never gets bored! My boys learned to ski on the Teewinot and Apres Vous side of the resort, and now enjoy skiing and boarding the entire mountain. The resort is large enough to separate the beginner/intermediate areas at the north end from the challenging cliffs, chutes and un-groomed powder runs that Jackson is famous for. I was living in the Bay Area for many years ago and visiting my cabin in Tahoe for my mountain experience, but ultimately moved to Jackson Hole. There are actually more visitors to this area in Summer than in Winter. There are several reasons for that: #1 We have two national parks within an hour's drive. Grand Teton National Park, adjacent to and just north of Teton Village, and Yellowstone National Park, about 60 miles north. All of the countryside in-between is 'open space', with only a few in-holdings and human comforts. The two parks are incredibly disimmiliar in character. Grand Teton has it's towering spine of mountain peaks, glaciers and lakes below; Yellowstone is a high plateau situated so close to the earth's magma that it has the highest concentration of natural thermal features in the world: geysers, boiling mud pots, bright-colored thermal pools, steam vents....but both parks have an important feature in common...wildlife. I have to admit this is a weakness. Tahoe has a wonderful black bear and deer population that I always enjoyed, but in the Greater Yellowstone Region, of which Jackson Hole(which defines a long valley with several small towns including the Town of Jackson and Teton Village)our wildlife including elk, bears, moose, bison and wolves flourish.
