Did anyone ski the Village today?

How's the coverage down low... thinking about a tour tomorrow.

I haven't skied GTNP since last Friday. But I agree with Steve's assessment that "punchy" conditions exist up high... watch out as things warm (skiing by 8-9am and drinking beers by 10am). Of course,...

I skied the Sliver as well as some other nearby lines in the Shadow Peak/ Nez Perce region today. Great soft snow on all aspects early. Sunlit aspects were wet by 10AM (lots of sloughing on the east...

Pushing back our start time due to the current overcast conditions... but I'll give a report if we go up high.

I wanted to get up high in GTNP tomorrow, but I'm not sure it's going to clear... snowing in Victor right now.

Oh, another question, Aaron...

An objective I've yet to acheive is the Apocalypse/ Son of A. What kind of gear is required right now... rappels, etc?

Thanks much!

Hey Aaron,

I'll report back with conditions if I decide to tour up high in the Park the next couple days... My partner and I have some objectives in mind, but we're currently a little concerned...

Has anyone been in Garnet Canyon or anywhere else up high in GTNP in the past few days?

I'm wondering how the recent snow is bonding, if there's been any significant wind affect, and how the sun...

Today, the Village OB was the best day of my season (both quality and quantity) with the 30"+ Grand Targhee dump coming in at a close second (quality, but I had to cut it short due to work).

Heads...

Don't know much about crust skiing... but W. Hourglass was blower today :wink:

"Advisability of hiring guide for sidecountry OB skiing at Jackson Hole"

Definitely hire a guide... like what has already been said, you'll be shown great snow and terrain given the current avy...

Sorry, no camera today. But the images would've been all white anyway.

I was seriously concerned mid-way down my first lap as I struggled to breath...

The Glacier looked good from a distance. But I'm sure it was wind hammered... I think just about everything in the north fork is wind affected. You probably made the correct choice by skiing the...

Scouted the Ford/ Stetner route yesterday... icy and very wind affected, i.e. 1-3' sastrugi, in the Stetner. According to rumors at the trailhead, someone skied this route Friday. I have a hard time...

The southeast ridge of Albright was good enough for a second and then a third lap today. The summit called our name with glowing sun and blue sky as a backdrop... but we stopped short and avoided the...

Poor me... I'm stuck at home with the kiddo today while I look out the window at 14" of fluff sparkling in the sun that's just now popping out.

Tomorrow, I plan to take full advantage.

Thanks...

So, why is the lot still full at 7:15pm? Are people sitting in their cars, or does WYDOT/ Hwy Patrol/ Start Bus shuttle them down somehow?

Just curious for those skiing the pass today; (and I probably would have been had I been free so I'm not pointing fingers) Does "High" avalanche danger now mean "Go For It!"

It seems not that...

The Ghee did not suck today.

I wallowed up Glory a few days ago in the dark... haven't been back up since.

Togwotee's snowpack is less than the Tetons so far. I usually love Tog early season.

My current favorite spot...

The Ghee was very nice today. I'm impressed with how much moisture is in the snow. A great base fo sho
