Perched atop Snow King Mountain in Jackson, Wyoming, Aurora Restaurant offers a summit dining experience unlike any other. Guests arrive by a scenic gondola ride and are welcomed by breathtaking views of Jackson Hole and the majestic Teton Range. Aurora pairs elevated regional cuisine with a setting designed to make every meal feel extraordinary.
To complement this unique mountaintop experience, Aurora partnered with ShadeFX to craft a versatile outdoor dining area that enhances both comfort and aesthetics. The installation features over 2,600 sq. ft. of retractable roof coverage, including multiple structures equipped with integrated gutters for efficient water management. Retractable glass walls further extend the usability of the space, allowing guests to dine comfortably while remaining connected to the natural surroundings. Finished in Ferrari Sandy Beige fabric with Traffic Black powder-coated framing, the system seamlessly complements the restaurant’s contemporary alpine architecture.
Located at the summit, Aurora benefits from panoramic views but also faces the challenges of high-altitude weather. The ShadeFX system provides the flexibility to adapt to shifting mountain conditions, offering protection from sun and rain while maintaining an open, airy atmosphere when the weather is clear. The result is a sophisticated outdoor venue that embodies both function and mountain elegance.
From summer sunsets to crisp autumn evenings, Aurora’s deck now provides an unforgettable setting for guests to enjoy fine food, handcrafted cocktails, and the beauty of Jackson Hole at its highest vantage point.
