Ohhh, another foot registered on some ruler in a crevice way up top. Send me a PM when it actually makes a difference.

Crazy, I know. We've had <12" here in eastern PA and everywhere is 100%. JH needs to HTFU.

Yeah, and come to think of it, people are talking ad nauseam about how they'll ski the trails that aren't even there. Non-stop. Hey, look, a foot, another one, 170cm more! Ugh!

Does Jackson hole have any playful terrain??

Yes.  Very playful.

Playful terrain for playful skis... A poll! How many of you bring your skis to JH and how many rent something new there?

We all bring our own skis. Usually two pairs.

Mmmm. Airlines must love you dearly. I should take my SL skis to JH. They're as playful as it gets. Best match for the terrain.

Ok.

Two pairs of skis, poles, a few fleeces and bag under 50 pounds. 

 

Almost all you see in Jackson hole are slalom skis..they are great off piste.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I watched WC SL yesterday, and that just was so inspirational. I think I'm ready to graduate from skiing BM and come with you to do slalom on the real slopes, in the real powder, not this easter shit. Plus, the weather in JH beats Italy hands down. They had +3C at the bottom and 0C up top yesterday. Had to use chemicals so that women wouldn't get glued to the snow on every turn.

I'm gonna bring my wide skis, and my wider skis.  i really like both pairs.  i like to demo stuff, but not sure i would go out west without taking my on skis.

Why wouldn't you embrace my company yourself? How will I ever graduate from "Making Turns" to being a "Gold Medalist" when you always look down on me from your mighty Shiros?

I was on the more modest mantras today.  I don't want to share a room with anybody because then I'll have to jerk off in the bathroom.

we're up to 7 people so far.  Me, Atomic Jeff, JFDan, NMSki, PARidge, MBike Mike and Nastar Glenn..maybe 8 people if my Montana friend Tom comes down.

They do.  They reward my loyalty with free bags, F upgrades, E+, etc. 

The only time I've ever taken 1 pair on a trip was a 2 day turn and burn to Tahoe for the weekend when I knew there was no snow in the forecast.

I talk in my sleep, all night long, so be forwarned.

Don't worry they'll be two beds..unless you boys want a fireplace suite.  Salty are you at Camelback??

Love a good inversion morning.

16" of new snow is just what the doctor ordered. Parts of the lower faces are now OPEN! Hobacks next...

Stay tuned for further updates.

 

I guess "next" means they need just a bit more snow.  I think they have a decent system coming in friday or so.  the week after looks "active" out west from what i have read.
