What the sources say
Every note below is drawn from the resort's own or an independent official publication.
Skiable acreage (2,500) is the standard inbounds figure; an additional ~3,000 acres of accessible backcountry/sidecountry is not groomed/patrolled and is not included.
Trail count is disputed between sources (116 vs 141) — not resolved to a single number.
The Jackson Hole Aerial Tram is confirmed as a true reversible tramway — the clearest example among researched US resorts, unlike similarly-named "gondolas" elsewhere.
