GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 31 Author Report Posted January 31 January 31, 2015 Day 3 of 7 Hey All, I’m back from another fun day at Jackson Hole mountain resort. In the house were me, Atomic Jeff and JfDan. We saw a couple moose right by the ticket office and were in line for the gondola around 830am. The temperature was about zero under mostly cloudy sky’s. First run on amphitheater had flat light and kind of stiff snow. Up Thunder and Grand was similar. Up Sublette and Bivoac still had some chalk. Next run was an empty rendezvous trail and pretty decent grooming. Over to Thunder and down the top of amphitheater over to Casper lift. Up Casper and down wide open to Teton lift then down wide open again back to the Casper chair. I skied the stash park area to right under the lift then up Teton again to Crags run which was pretty decent up Teton again to the base of apres vous. Up apres vous to Saratoga bowl which had the best snow on the mountain, it’s below and north facing where we skied so snow was chalky to styrofoam. Did a repeat of Saratoga bowl. Me and Jeff quit then and went to the mangy moose and JfDan got a few more runs in and met us at the mangy. Now back in town waiting for my weed pills to creep in. Nazareth Jay arrived about 2 hours ago and Dirtwolf is expected to arrive around 9pm. Everybody keep your fingers crossed that his plane gets in ok as it’s supposed to start snowing and blowing in a few hours. JADIP 7 1 Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 1 Author Report Posted February 1 From the JH Avalanche forecast. The approaching multi-day atmospheric river will bring widespread snow with periods of heavy snowfall of over 1 inch an hour. By Saturday evening (5pm) forecasted snow totals are showing over 12 inches of snow across all forecast zones. Areas favored by the storm in the Tetons and Snake River Range could receive closer to 18 inches of snow. Strong wind is forecasted to peak in intensity Saturday. Another strong pulse is followed on Sunday with continued snowfall into early next week. Powder season is back as we roll into February. 7 1 Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 2 Author Report Posted February 2 Jackson Hole Day 4 of 7 2/1/2025 Hey All, I’m back from another fun day at Jackson hole mountain resort. The day dawned mild and snowy with a temperature of around 30 degrees in town with a couple inches of new snow and 9” new reported on the mountain. In the house were Atomic Jeff, JFDan, Nazareth Jay and Dirtwolf. We arrived at the mountain around 8am and were in line for the gondola around 810am to the sounds of avalanche bombs above. Miraculously the mountain opened on time and a few minutes later we were whisked up the mountain in the Bridger gondola. Down Amphitheater to Thunder was some thick new snow and was pretty tracked already by all the wallets and people ahead. Up Thunder and center of grand had a lot of untracked still kind of sierra cement. Up Sublette and into the cirque for the first time this trip..lots of new snow and untracked down into Amphitheater which was beat. By now Thunder had an overflowing corral but we waited once for about ten minutes to ride Thunder back up, then traverses below the expert chutes for some untracked and here it seemed lighter. Back down and we took the Marmot chair since it had no line. We ended up doing four laps off the Marmot chair skiing a couple short sections of slightly tracked glades..here the snow was more medium density. After the fourth woods lap we skied down to Casper chair and I was beat so skied to the base via blacktail and Sundance and like 20 minutes later the boys were done. We ended up at the Mangy moose again it was super packed in there but we got a table. Fun skiing a lot of untracked today and I think tomorrow will be even better and they needed the higher density snow to cover up the hardpack. jADIP 6 Quote

Visibility is no problem and yesterday woods were definitely in play even before the snowstorm. Airhead you should get out here, you’d have a blast and really maximize the experience. 5 3 Quote

Just check yourself before you wreck yourself. If it’s marked double diamonds in JH there is probable some sort of cliff/rock formation as in this short line under Thunder lift. 2 1 Quote

Popular Post GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 2 Author Popular Post Report Posted February 2 February 2nd 2025 Jackson Hole day 5 of 7 Today dawned with 7” of new snow in the past 24 hours and 16” in the last 2 days. I saw Dirtwolf at the bagel place again today…had first tracks at Pearl street bagels and a lot more first tracks throughout the day. A slow and steady drive to the mountain had us there around 8am and in line for the gondola at 810am it was snowing hard with a temperature around 30 degrees and we were maybe 15 people back in the singles line. Amphitheater was deep..as deep as yesterday a tad lighter density but medium to dense I guess..the left side all untracked my goggles were giving me some issues so I skied it a little slower and kept atomic Jeff waiting like a whole minute at the Thunder chair. Next run getting to Grand low vis plus goggle issues I just decided to ski alone…but don’t cry for me Argentina..my goggles got a little better later and all I skied was untracked..lots and lots of it. Grand was boner doner..Jeff was like it was so deep and untracked on the left, well the center was as well..then off to the Hobacks and second or third best Hobacks for me…the line I usually take is less travelled to begin with but just a handful of people in there and that’s where I took the most pictures…I literally felt old moguls like three spots in 2500 vertical feet. Union pass had a bit of a line and the heavy snow on the mountain was more a rain snow mixture with some sleet pellets..I was pretty soaked already…the guy I rode the lift with said his son is at mammoth and it’s raining to the peak. I skied into the village used the restroom and went into ski shop to see about cat poop which is something that prevents goggles from fogging but honestly my helmet and strap and foam just so soaked wouldn’t have mattered and the line was so long and others using hand dryers on goggles in the restroom. I just used a few paper towels and last few runs like 40% better…i took teewinot to apres vous and the main blue run was giant pow bumps and Jerry’s everywhere so I ducked right into the Moran area to the skiers left of the Teton lift and that was really good and not a ton of people. By now I was super soaked it wasn’t a big vert day but a big untracked snow day and I didn’t want in any long liftlines..doing the hobacks early today the pro move. I’m sure it was great later but not blank canvass…I stopped at the mangy moose store while boys were still skiing had an iced tea outside and like fifteen minutes later they were done and then went back to town changed into dry clothes and went to the snake river brewery for lunch. Mexican food tonight I could go for a frozen strawberry margarita served in a chalice the size of a small bird bath. 10 1 Quote
Popular Post JFskiDan Posted February 2 Popular Post Report Posted February 2 Oh holy hell today was gooood. Like,”save the neck for me clark” type stuff. Like doug, i had some google issues from the get go that messed with my head. We stood in wet snow for quite a while and right before opening i started to fog. I cleared them up a little on the gondi ride, but it just wasnt great and got worse to the point they were pretty much soaked and really a problem but plowed through as best i could. I made it to the potty at the top of one lift for some well needed TP, to at least dry the lenses, which helped tons. Anyways, man that early run down the hobacks was totally worth the price of admission. Deep deep stuff, but pretty heavy. Big open field of untracked loveliness. Currently using the hair drier and heater to dry all my shit out. Everything of mine was pretty wet. I need to step up my “rider of the storm gear”. What a great day. Areas in the hobacks probably had the deepest snow i have ever skied in. 8 2 1 Quote
