This is going to act as a double review since these were both in the same city. Turns out Grand Tetons is a fairly small park and is also really close to Jackson Hole. Not really paying attention we ended up leaving the park and just decided we might as well go the additional 10 miles and check out the city, so we did. Earlier that morning we had meet a family from Illinois who had been coming to the Tetons for over 30 years and the father had said we need to go check out the Million Dollar Cowboy Bar in Jackson. That's exactly what we did. It seems like more of a tourist attraction than a bar, but it was still pretty cool and quite expensive ($11 for two beers + tip). The place is huge. There are two very large bars on either side of the room as well as a smaller one in the back, there are also some smaller rooms downstairs, possibly VIP rooms. All the seats at the bars are saddles, kind of a cool novelty, but could get uncomfortable quickly. They had a decent local beer selection, which we came to discover later that there is a small brewery in Jackson. As we were enjoying out Snake River OB-1 Organic beers Robby came through with a very good text message and told me we should go to the Snake River Brewery for dinner and get the Hefeweizen. Snake River Brewery had delicious beer and good food as well. We got to see one of the brew-masters working on some beer. All in all a very good trip to Jackson Hole! Special thanks to Robby for the great recommendation as well!
