Here's the lowdown, The Vp is in and out alot these days going to
various functions away from here. They close the airport for his
departure and arrival, these closures last about 20-30 minutes and are
determined a few hours in advance. Flight service and SLC ATC will
pass along the current notams. It's not really a big deal so making JAC
a destination is still a treat for sure. The TFR over his house is hot
anytime he is here, Thats the one 7.4 NM southwest of the JAC VOR with
a 4NM radius. During his departure/arrival the airport is closed up to
3000 AGL and 3 NM radius, over the field. It is easy to hold east of
the field and take in the beauty of the Tetons for a few minutes.
Probably the prettiest hold you will ever be in. G

Planning a trip to Jackson Hole next week, but of course the AOPA web
site lists a potential TFR for Jackson Hole airport from August
17th-Sept. 1st.

Is the JAC (jackson Hole) airport CLOSED during the TFR to GA or what
is the deal?

Reading the TFR text for the latest TFR's out there show the airspace
for something like 3-4 n.m. upto 6000 feet.
Can one fly in on an IFR flight plan? VFR flight plan with flight
following or not?

Thanks for any light one can shed on this irritating development.
