Does anyone know why all these resort counties went so Democratic this time?

Yeah. Jackson, a tourist resort town, is in Teton, and went heavily for Kerry.

LDS Church, Jackson, WY
2004: Kerry +21
2000: Bush +10
SWING: Dem +31

That is amazing. Does this mean that Kerry won Mormons in Teton County? What is this madness???

It's still bizarre. So there's no explanation as to why Teton swung so heavily to Kerry... of course the Nader factor has something to do with that, but it still trended Democratic.

And as you pointed out, the trend wasn't entirely among "latte liberals" in Jackson- every area in Teton(except maybe that WYDOT precinct) shifted heavily to Kerry. This is perplexing me more as I think more about it...
