Historical/Interpretive Information/Exhibits

Many Bar BC guests of the 1920s and 30s came on vacation to Jackson Hole seeking some of the same things that visitors hope to find today-the peace of being in nature, the splendor of the mountain scenery, and the appreciation of a slower pace of life. Struthers Burt and Horace Carncross selected this site for its beautiful views, its gentle breezes that ruffle the aspen trees, and its solitude, provided by the river valley. Though much about the Bar BC has changed, the setting itself is much the same. What are you hoping to find on your visit here?
