An Event with A View

How do you get this view for your next event?

Here's how!

This event was held at the Bridger Collier Lodge which is located on top of a 10,000-foot-high mountain at the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort resort. The only way up to the lodge is the Bridger Gondola which means a lot to a black-diamond skier, but to an event professional it means a slower load-in than normal. We had a crew at the top of the gondola that took the boxes and props off and put it in piles, and the crew that the bottom that loaded it. It was quite an operation that took an extra day to accomplish.

But it was so worth it!

A front row seat to a spectacular view is embellished with the beauty of a Citron Lamour linen from BBJ Linen and camel roses in gold leaf containers, a stunning combination.

We've done an event at the top of this mountain more than once and have found the most important things for us “sea-level” folks is to drink tons of water when working at 10,000 feet.The altitude will make you lose your energy really fast and hydrating constantly helps you keep your energy. We've also found that we have to work at about half speed when installing or wel burn out really quick. Now, if you are from Wyoming, not a problem. But it’s not often we do events on top of mountains!
