Replying to Stoke level = 100. Heading to Jackson late Jan-Feb

Turning 40 this year and my wife is sending me to JHole with my crew. Too say I am stoked is an understatement. Looking for any suggestions on runs, we know the obvious. Bars/Restaurants etc?
Also looking to pay someone to take some vids for us could be a total amateur we don’t care obviously we would pay you. Any tips on lodging booking that before October. Wanna be close to the mountain as possible.
We are a crew of 30-40 year old EC rippers. Keep my stoke alive!
