This week in Jackson Hole was insane. About of a foot of heavy, wetter snow on Sunday. Spitting rain down in town. Then a DUMP overnight on Sunday into Monday morning for another 12". And then another DUMP overnight Monday night into Tuesday morning. By Tuesday morning, town was running out of places to put snow. The snowbanks have tripled in size since last week.

My old boss from Steamboat was in town. He bought a private mountain guide on Tuesday morning and saved me a spot. We got to go up early tram, and cut lines all day. I heard long time JH locals talking about how that day was the deepest day they've ever had inbounds at Jackson Hole.

The Hobacks untouched in 24" of snow was a religious experience. I couldn't have timed it better to have my old boss in town. Early tram was fricking all-time. Surrounded by pro-skiers, including the Warren Miller film team, at the top of the tram, waiting for the mountain to open, on an all-time pow day. It was truly epic.

Here's a photo of me enjoying some deepness two storm cycles ago:

Baws, how easy is it to mount and adjust your bindings? Current skis have about 100 days on them. Time for something new. Being in LA no place for tuning.
