From One Generation to the Next — Jackson Hole’s Influence is Passed Down

Teton Gravity Research was founded on the rugged slopes of Jackson Hole. Now, one of its founders, Steve Jones, is witnessing that legacy come full circle. His children, JJ and Cayce, didn't just grow up in the town; they were truly raised by the Tetons.

Jackson Hole Mountain Resort serves as the ultimate training ground. For JJ Jones, the progression happened fast. He famously dropped into the legendary Corbet’s Couloir at just seven years old. This short film, 'Raised by Jackson Hole,' captures that fearless spirit. It blends vintage archive footage with modern-day action to show the evolution of the Jones family.

The film follows Steve, JJ, and Cayce as they venture into the Jackson sidecountry. As they move through the terrain, Steve points out the iconic lines that he and his brothers, Todd and Jeremy, made countless memories on throughout the years. These slopes are more than just snow and rock; they are the foundation of the TGR brand.

Watching JJ and Cayce navigate these generational lines proves that the fire for adventure still burns bright. The film serves as a powerful reminder of why we do what we do. It’s about the connection between family and the mountains we call home.
