Jackson Hole is situated in northwest Wyoming.

Driving To Jackson Hole
If you are driving from Salt Lake City the distance is 307 miles which will take you about 5 hours. Denver is just over 500 miles and will take between 9 and 10 hours 30 minutes. All of the drives will offer you breathtaking scenery but the drives are long.
Alternatively you can get a bus, the Mountain States Express for example, provides daily bus services between Jackson and Salt Lake City.
Upon reflection you may do better to get an internal US flight to Jackson Hole Airport. You can fly from Dallas, Chicago, New York and Los Angeles. Once you are here the resort is then only a 30 minute drive away.
