Leaving in the AM for Park City Utah and then onto Jackson Hole Wyoming on Friday returning to the ATL on Monday.
What don’t I want to miss while I’m there. Wife has meetings in Park City Thursday and Friday AM but on our own the rest of the time.
I like good bourbon and am not opposed to sponsoring a tour guide or other knowledgeable individuals who may have an interesting suggestion other than GFYS

Can't help you, sir. I avoid Park City like the yuppie tree-hugging Rainbow Pride man bun place it now is.

If the weather is good, you might want to ride the Heber Creeper, a slow, open car train through some nice country.
Park City to SLC isn't a long way. Lots to do there. Ogden isn't much farther, and we have the Browning Museum.
Jackson? Enjoy the ride to and from.
So far, our spring has been wet and cold. Probably something of shock to your system.
Be not weary in well doing.

Had a good time in a Jackson Hole saloon years ago. The Million Dollar Cowboy Bar. They have saddles instead of bar stools.

When you're in Jackson the Tetons are a must see. Spend a day driving along the Gros Ventre River east of town, spectacular country and mostly tourist free with an endless supply of great hiking. Bubbas is a sure thing for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Treat yourselves to dinner at the Amangani Hotel, spectacular views and fine dining. There is a pretty good reason that Jackson is so popular, have fun.

Most people visiting Park City walk old Main Street. There are some cool shops. Just make sure you have money to burn. It’s not cheap. The Olympic Village is pretty cool place. As mentioned above the Heber City railroad is a hot spot. I would take the hour drive to Ogden and go the the Browning museum myself. Just my 2 cents.

The Bunnery Bakery & Restaurant in Jackson.
We were there in February and the elk herd was estimated at 7000.

Had a good time in a Jackson Hole saloon years ago. The Million Dollar Cowboy Bar. They have saddles instead of bar stools. I hear those saddles will buck you right off after ten or twelve shots of tequila.

Billy Blanco's in Park City is a pretty fun place. Hot rods & motorcycles throughout the place and good eats too. Mexican, Burgers and bar food are the standard fare and it's not terribly expensive either.
Yours in Liberty,
