Ski2Live you'd like Jackson hole.

Easy easy drive probably 5-6" so far and snowing hard.

First 1/3 of drive was super easy.

Way to get after it!!! Just rolled in from karaoke. Snow just starting in the A. Definitely saw some ladies tonight that should be having my baby..but no time for love making gotta rest up for 6am wake up call at casa de GSS Did somebody say no rain???

That's every hotel under $139 a night.

You know my friends dad owns the Ramada that you stayed at.

Way to get after it...I can't cancel a ski trip..I've gone to Stowe after a thaw freeze and ended up with some unexpected fresh snow and good tree skiing.

It's also well plowed.

If you want an easier drive go 22 to 145 north to blue mountain drive. That's how atomic Jeff is driving up.

Getting stoked for tomorrow morning!!!!

Herbs and Jerrys

You've got to practice smart style in the park remember to EasystyleIt...Look before you leap..call your drop in multiple languages, wreck yourself before you wreck yourself..

Nice report Ridge did you have any wipeouts??

Vermont has been getting rocked all season. It's our turn.

5 hour drive.

The best road conditions will be on blue mountain drive.

Lots of subpar skiers slipping their way down as well. It's their right to ski or ride how they like. Everybody starts as a beginner. JF runs also only last about 23.5 seconds.

You could take a bus to targhee. Targhee is like okemo compared to Jackson hole though and often foggy. The one time I skied Snow King was the day JH shut down all their lifts at 11am and I took a bus there after lunch and drinks and bought a 2 hour ticket. Steep mountain but only a few ways down. That day is documented in this video. I have a cameo at 4:14 in. And 7:30 in shows the blizzard that shut the place down. This was 2009 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ip09iryWIwQ

I would want to build a lodge and parking lot on flat ground. I don't know much about construction but it seems like a lot less earth to move. I'm happy for snowboarders cause they gave us powder skis. Also if I developed a ski area I would surely have a runout at the base if feasible. Not only to pad the vertical stat a little but to make the runs last a little longer and give people a little breather at the end of the run. What's the point of getting to 40 or 50mph by the bottom of falls or Dreamweaver just to have to throw me sideways and stop...seems like a waste of energy to me... I remember the last year Blue mountain didn't allow snowboarding 1995-96. I was in the summit lodge and saw a family of 5 with 4 skiers and one snowboarder leaving first thing. It was because Blue didn't allow snowboarding..(they were one of the final holdouts) so the family of 5 was likely headed for camelback or Jack Frost. Hundreds of dollars of lost revenue and I'm sure that sort of thing happened daily. It's the same sport we just use different tools.

Oh Lordy...

I see grand targhee and snow King getting a huge boost in business. Wouldn't those giant generators have to be delivered from somewhere and installed...I don't know how they could run several upper mountain lifts and lodges on those.

I bet Brighton is empty.

JFDan Brighton didn't report 7" overnight they reported 7" in the last 24 hours and 0 overnight. It seemed fishy so I checked earlier. Actually 9" 24 hours but 0 inches overnight. Sorry for being so detail oriented but you have to be in the tombstone business.

Closed a minumum of five days and the special Olympics is cancelled. http://mtnweekly.com/mountain-lifestyle/jackson-hole-mountain-resort-closed-until-further-notice-minimum-5-days

Yup 17 poles out...sucks. I saw there as a microburst with gusts as high as 150mph. And essentially everybody staying in Teton village is with power. It's all good I'm sure the 49er, Elk country inn, cowboy village and the Antler inn in town have plenty of rooms for all the people staying at the Four Seasons who need to rebook lol.
