Caldera House, nestled at the base of the southernmost flank of The Teton Mountain Range, is the newest luxury ski lodge to open at Teton Village in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. With $100,000,000 invested in the project and some big names behind it, Caldera House is destined to be Jackson Hole’s most sought after ski-in-ski-out, luxury ski lodge accommodation.

“We deliberately tried to provide not just a great place to stay, but a world-class restaurant, lounge, bar, and retail experience — all available without stepping foot outside of the building,” said Caldera House owner Wesley Edens.

And not going outside might come in handy if one of the Teton’s infamous blizzards happens to strike without warning during your stay.

Read on for a first-look gallery of this stunning ski lodge with common areas and two luxe suites designed by Commune Design out of LA, and just try to contain your envy.

Caldera House’s Old Yellowstone Garage restaurant sports throwback style with burnt orange crescent booth and bank seating, tan leather-upholstered chairs, and a distinctly 1950s French mountain restaurant feel.

Yellowstone Garage’s bar is clad in copper with the same tacking complementing the stools. Sidle up to this pretty penny for a Manhattan cocktail apres ski.

Caldera House definitely didn’t skimp on style when it came to the design of the alpine club and ski locker room.

Each of the eight suites (yes, only eight) features floor-to-ceiling windows, mudrooms, laundry rooms, and balconies with Solus fire pits and gas grills. Patios are also equipped with in-floor heating for year-round use.

All suites have their own living rooms and kitchens, along with bedrooms in two- and four-room configurations.

This particular suite’s living room has taken on a retro-modern design sense with wire-framed chairs and a corner fireplace.

A simple, wood-paneled kitchen pays homage to the bare-bones aesthetic of the American frontier.

Prints, plaids, and furs provide warmth and coziness.

A huge fireplace and giant windows create the perfect combination of heat and light in this suite’s living area.

Who can say no to a tin tub?

This kitchen’s black cabinet walls, offset by the lighter wood floor, are reminiscent of the birch, pine, and silver maple forests of the surrounding areas.

Hexagonal tile is old news as evident by this abstract-tiled bathroom.

Low ceilings and even lower seating give this kitchen a hominess that is polished a bit by the marble-sided kitchen island.

Cream and calm define this space — a play on the grasses and prairies of Wyoming and the Yellowstone Caldera influenced the styling of this suite’s living room.

This is the American West’s answer to the classic European four-post bed.

This is the kind of hotel bathtub that makes you grateful you’re not paying the water bill.

This bedroom has a very “rustic camp” vibe.

Simple, refined, and full of light. For the person who can still manage to cook a meal after a full day on the slopes.

The Manual Library: 10 action franchises to pass the cold weekends
Cross

Guys need to read more. Every time I start doomscrolling on TikTok or Instagram, the BookTok world is almost exclusively curated for women. That is why we need to start pushing our love for the bang-bang shoot-’em-ups. The debonair spy. The man on his own, cut off from all help, with only his skills and his wits to help him overcome the obstacles between him and his mission. As men, we love these escapes from the mundane lives and diving into the hero fantasy we all have. When women talk about the mental load they carry every day, men are usually creating our own mental load with safety and security: “What would I do if someone attacked from here? Or there?” Really, what we’re asking is, “What would Jason Bourne do?”

I tend to live in this place in my head when I need to escape from the world, but it is more fun to read about it. As the weather begins to turn and our evenings and weekends are colder and darker, we need something to occupy our time to get us from now until we can escape to the great outdoors in the spring. Here are some action and adventure book recommendations to get your heart going and quench that hero fantasy without doing anything dangerous.

5 lessons the military teaches you that you don’t learn in school
Saving Private Ryan

This is not a knock on public school. I went to public school. I liked public school. There is a system of life training built into the social fabric of school where we learn a lot about ourselves and the lives we are about to live. But the truth is we don’t learn a lot about life from the actual curriculum in the classroom. We learn that Paul Revere rode through the streets to alarm everyone that the British were coming. We learned that A squared plus B squared equals C squared. We even learned what an electron is. But there are precious little practical life lessons you can take with you. For me, I picked a lot of those through movies (a lot of parents are shaking their heads right now, but don’t knock it completely; there is a lot you can learn from movie perspectives) and my time in the United States Army.

The military teaches you a ton of practical life skills that will elevate your life when applied to your day-to-day. Here are five of them with a couple bonuses at the end.

Coffee is for closers: How Blake from Glengarry Glen Ross’s iconic scene teaches you more than sales
Alec Baldwin

There are moments in movies that stand the test of time. They are the first thing we think of when someone uses a turn of phrase or references something that sends your brain down the rabbit hole of movie quotes. These become cultural stalwarts and embed themselves into the very collective consciousness of our society. Some become known for certain industries. Wanna know what law enforcement is like? Check out Training Day or End of Watch. Wanna know what being a firefighter is like? Press play on Backdraft. How about military life? Full Metal Jacket, Jarhead, or Officer and a Gentleman. Want realism? Don’t watch any of them. But what about sales? There are a dozen movies that can teach you how to sell. Boiler Room. The Wolf of Wall Street. But none of them are as iconic as Glengarry Glen Ross. In fact, one scene in that movie every salesman should watch. Blake’s 8-minute tongue-lashing at the office underachievers.

Alec Baldwin took less than ten minutes to cement himself in the lexicon of sales mentors. Walking into the office, he looks at Ed Harris, Jack Lemmon, and Alan Alda and rips them to shreds when one pours himself some coffee.
