In the morning before it cleared out What a great day

@NMSKI makes me fucking tired. We did some serious skiing today despite less than ideal visibility. We did a few Washakie's including a visit to Stokeville, Tower 3, Hoops Gap, and Dick's Ditch. My legs are cooked, and I think his are too 😁

Last day for me and a bunch of fun with this group.

I think I saw you guys when I was riding Thunder. I was nearing top of lift as you guys were heading down. A tale of two days (in one) morning Not much from morning just charged after the untouched Really nice in trees below Bivouac afternoon

I think I’m burping in this picture! Had lots of fun today. They all can’t be massive pow days but still managed to let out some involuntary hoots and hollers and found some legit nice snow. Hoops gap was ROTD I think, but Alta 2 gave me the adrenaline rush I’m looking for too. Solid day 1 in the books for me. Looking forward to a couple more good ones!

My last day. Sorry didn’t get a chance to meet up with the other crews here hiked up to hit Beartooth line snow was niiccceeee

I would much prefer Prohibition era temps

For those of you familiar with Glen Onoko, here is a picture of the train station that used to be there. It was built to handle the tourists who would come to visit the Lehigh Gorge and surrounding areas. At the time in the late 1800s it receives as many visitors as Niagara Falls and was one of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States.

1/31/20 Day 3 of 7. Hey All, I’m back from another fun day skiing at Jackson hole. We made it first in line around 815am and I shot the shit with Django from the Teton gravity forums and another TGR member who’s an Alpental local. Temperatures were in the teens under overcast sky’s. Skied amphitheater flat light not terrible not that good either. Then grand to sublette followed by bivouac woods. Atomic Jeff and NMSki did Alta 2 while me mute and JFDan did the Bivoac trail which was chalky as fuck. Then went into the cirque couldn’t see much...chopped chowder mostly some groomer over to Casper lift up Casper and did Moran woods ok snow it’s just yesterday and Wednesday was like fucking a super model and today still like a 6 or Scranton 8. The Wahsakie glades had the best snow NMSki went after it with that Kung Foo grip. My feet were givng me issues issues so I split up from the group and doodled around on apres vous took a safety break then skied to the base had a sugarfree redbull and ham and cheese croissant. Mute and Ryan joined me shortly thereafter and had coffee and the others did a few more runs then we had a late lunch at the mangy moose. Only 4 pitchers consumed and also a Long Island tea by me currently rocking out to Ski2Live Xmas song I just sent the video to my friend and her response was the fuckkk dick pierce is the goob we rode the lift with yesterday. Jerry.

Good to see mute carrying his skis right, gotta teach nm lol

Tits is plural, therefore, it is Les Tits. Oh, and Je suis si jaloux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

everyone reading about the powder stashes, first tracks, and face shots .... thanks to this thread, I've been checking out flights to Jackson for the past 30 minutes or so...

Please don’t ask Doug to post pictures of his meat.

In the morning a little out of bounds action going through the gates and riding WhyNot? first backcountry experience and wow just wow ...

One of the few times I didn’t do the Jackson carry. Ryan taught me, I’ll get him on NM

I picked up some hidden river cans for those of us not lucky enough to be in Jackson

All the boys are skiing today...should be a fun day in the Tetons 😃

Noice boys, stop shitting up this thread with salad, meat shots only! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@tarponhead i had this salad for dinner.

Town square.

This is funny, since Blue is sort of good at doing nothing. Its been said before, let chute bump up. Its a nothing trail, and without having to groom that they could focus more time on getting everything else better.

some pretty flat light today, but not horrible. most of the trees skied well, some crunchy areas. met a lot of interesting people today. I did think 2 guys were gonna throw down in the singles line for the gondi this morning, but they hugged it out.

Forecast for rest of the trip..tomorrow Bluebird..Sunday rider of the storm day..Monday big fucking pow day..Tuesday Bluebird.

1/30/20 Time to say goodbye to Loon/Lincoln. Was a fun little mountain for a couple of days of skiing. Decided to try out local eatery for breakfast, Flapjack’s pancake house. Cool place that has a model railroad running throughout up near the ceiling with some interesting menu selections. I opted for The Hooverville which was egg, sausage and cheese in a stack of pancakes. Delicious! Packed the car and departed for Portsmouth because the wife wanted to go there. Arrived at the “hotel”, The Ale House Inn. It’s a converted warehouse that was used by the Portsmouth brewing company back in the day and is now the inn and apartments. After getting settled in, it was time to go off on the Portsmouth brewery tour! First stop we found was Earth Eagle Brewings. A cool brewpub with a New Orleans feel with skulls and Absinthe fountain. Had a couple of good IPAs and hatched a plan for the rest of the evening. The wife’s phone battery was getting low, so we headed back to the car to pick up a battery and ran into the presidentIal candidate Tulsi Gabbard’s supporter. We thought he was just gonna hand us a pamphlet, but instead told us she was gonna be at the Gas Light Pub that night for a town hall meeting. Well, the plans just changed! Headed to the Portsmouth Brewing Co to sample a couple of their beers and then headed to The Franklin Oyster House for happy hour. We slurped down a dozen raw oysters and a couple of beers, both of which were delicious. Hard to beat $1.25 oysters. From there we made our way to the Gas Light Pub for beers and a pizza before the town hall and then made our way up to the top bar. Shortly thereafter, Tulsi entered the room and greeted everyone with an Aloha, but me already a bit lit yelled back, A-Lo-Ha, in true Hawaiian fashion. She got a kick outta that, called me out and thanked me. After her speech, they had a very short Q/A (I had a question I wanted to ask, but time ran out), followed by a meet & pic. That would be my chance! The other day she was snowboarding at Cranmore, so I would use that. We got in line and up came my chance. I shook her hand and told her that I was the greatest skier on the mountain and asked her if she would consider switching to skiing. She replied that she “was willing to try anything once!” After pics we were leaving the bar and then I got stopped by some reporter who said “she liked my energy and would I mind being interviewed”. Visions of @GrilledSteezeSandwich ran through my mind. Needless to say it was an alcohol-fueled energy. I doubt they used any of my answers! I didn’t know what to expect out of Portsmouth, but now I’m glad the wife wanted to go there. It’s a neat little mini-Boston that’s got a lot of history, breweries, pubs, shops. I’d definitely go back for a longer stay. Flapjack’s The Hooterville Finally got to see the peak of Mt.Washington Ale House Inn Just for @GrilledSteezeSandwich Oyster bar Downtown Portsmouth Gas Light Pub Yours truly (God I’m old) with Tulsi Gabbard

To each their own but anything past medium you should order chicken. The red juice isn't blood, for me it's no warmer than medium rare

Atomic Jeff gets middle seat when the 3 of us take the 20 hour flight nonstop from JFK to Sydney. We can play tag you're it the whole flight.

Did the pilot really say “bitches”? Because that’s bad ass.

Another beautiful day on tap in Jackson Hole. Sleeper pow day on tap...5" overnight and 2-3" between 6am and the 9am opening. Me, @mute1080, and @GrilledSteezeSandwich were first in line for the gondola. It was snowing pretty hard for the on time opening. Quick rip down to Thunder through 5" on top of groomed was a great way to start. After skiing untracked down to Sublette, we skied a wind buffed Ten Sleep bowl. The boys skied Cirque, and I hiked the headwall again. There were very few tracks up on the Headwall, maybe only even patrol in front of me. It was a relatively easy hike given the cooler temperatures and the new snow except for post holing the first 50ft and the last 50 ft. Mute getting some pow Mute getting some pow under the expert chutes Turned out to be a beautiful day....that's me in the distance. Here's GSS skiing the Cirque And here is me later in the day skiing some playful terrain in Moran.

January 30th, 2020 Day 2 of 7. Hey All, I’m back from another fun day at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. I woke up around 5am and looked at webcams and noticed 2-3” of snow on the railings at the base in the village. The report at 6am said 5” new and it was still snowing. After breakfast from Pearl street bagel we left for the mountain at 720am and way less people than yesterday. In line right around 8am first in line for Gondola. Fun people to talk to in line including a Canadian couple and a surfer dude who lives in a van. I think we ended up with second civiilan gondola because we didn’t hustle around the bullwheel. First amphitheater to thunder was a floating dream of sweetness. Grand was better untracked and the cirque was even better. The deepest pow 💥 was probably below the expert Chutes which we skied three times. While it wasn’t quite as deep as yesterday it was a similar medium density perder and with less people untracked last longer. Four thunder laps had my legs cooked from the choppity chop going back to the lift went over to Casper and Moran was sort of Anticlimatic as it was the first time in two days I could feel stuff under the perd..maybe if I was just a little lighter on my skis. No groomer tracks the first two ski days except for the wind blown area leading to ten sleep bowl..also a 5 foot deep drift that ate one of Mutes skis. I quit a little earlier than the boys and posted up on the deck of the general store removed my sweaty helmet and had an Arnold Palmer..then lunch at the alpenhof. Now back in town ready to relax a little before beer thirty.

Sully landing in the Hudson deserved a clap but I think they stiffed him.

Only complete jerrys clap when a plane lands. It's like clapping when a movie is over. Unless the God damn landing gear flew off no fucking clapping.

No one has ever clapped because they landed in Topeka

No but I have one

No clapping upon this landing. but....last year after being held at dfw, not sure if we were even going to leave, which we did, we almost made it to jackson, then got re-routed to slc, and sat on the plane for an hour or so, when the pilot said “buckle up bitches, we are going back to jackson,” there were a lot of high fives, fist bumps and clapping.

1/29/20 Out the door and into the freezer! Bluebird, windy and frigid kinda day. Got to the mountain at 9, far more crowded this morning, for a Wednesday. The sound of the train whistle echoed off the adjacent peak (I’d never get tired of hearing that!) Up the quad and down to the gondola, the wind was howling at the top and the snow was firm and windblown, but still grippy. Uo the gondola and down to the peak to peak quad to check out the South side for a while. Ran the South pod For a while, nothing spectacular, just fast, fun runs. On empty days here, these runs are pretty long and fast, with lots of rollers. It had to be cold because toes were, so headed back to lodge to warm up. Headed back out for a few more runs off the quad and had had enough. Met the wife at the car and decided to go on a hike down by the river. Poked around down by the river’s edge, checking out various wildlife tracks and the river boulders. Made our way to the Paul Bunyan for beer thirty. Sun was beating, so hung out in the deck and watched people come down the super pipe. Apres started at One Love brewery. This is a cool place in that the building was a converted lumber/paper mill that now has a few shops. One is a clothing shop where they’re seeing the clothes right there! One Love have some interesting throw-back beers that were quite tasty. Next stop was Black Mountain Burger that’s stumbling distance from The Lodge. The place has a good selection of beers and a bunch in rotation. We had a delicious TIPA and a chocolate peanut butter stout for dessert that tasted just like Tandy Takes. Opted for their vegan burger creation of the day because I was feeling adventurous and waffle sweet potato fries. It came with a Cajun mayo that was very tasty. Bluebird shots Paul Bunyan & super poor One Love brewery TIPAs at Black Mountain burger Dessert!

Steak tartare

If you can't seed them just do nothing. Let the bump guys work the left side of main and they'll figure it out. Literally all blue has to do is nothing

Maybe vail can start seeding clouds.

Do it

And a new Apres friend

Rode tonight meh, guns blowing gak almost sent me over the handle bars, beats watching tv and fb Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No. I think @toast21602 and @JFskiDan would like to go with you, though.

Atomic Jeff was just saying about how his Bose headphones allow him to sit next to me.

Great day and very nice conditions with law. My favs were Main Street, challenge, and seitchback FYI, northeast extension currently closed both directions at Quaker town

Or launch multiple rockets.

You're a clapper, aren't you?

Did people clap? I love when that happens. Fools.

Did you check out of your hotel house or just transfer your accommodations to this hotel for the week?

My dad helped out with the restoration as well. He sent me some photos when they wrapped up the project. He was stoked to get to operate the engine again like he did when working at Bethlehem Steel.
