Hows the snow? Plenty of it?
Hows the snow? Plenty of it?
Sunny and dry here. We are Mt. biking off of the tram.
Forum Cross Pollinator, gratuitously strident
Thats too bad, cancelled entire trip....
Any update on Jackson. Pics on the mountain website look fabulous, but I'm a skeptic . . .
pics on website are all from the backcountry where its always sickter.
I'm thinking about going to JH on Thursday but the forecast is for rain on Wednesday? Is this true? I'm not gonna head out there for snow that has been rained on
anyone... anyone?
main rain down low but up high the goods will be fine. I'd go to Big Sky personally.
ROLL TIDE ROLL
I think I'm gonna go to Baker now... but that depends on if it rains Thursday... the snow level is forecasted at 6000 that day
jh was real nice, i just left the 27th, don't know how it is now
Any snow around right now? I am headed that way next week to see my parents and was wondering if I would be able to get some turns in any where?
Clear and cold here right now. We got a touch of the storm that is hammering Colorado right now, but they (you) have way more snow. Check the WYDOT website before you head up- last I saw I-80 and I-15 were pretty much shut down.
Cold and Dry, but a storm is due in soon, hopefully in the next three days
I am coming back out the 22nd. Kinda scared right now. Praying for snow!
With this storm will they have enough to start opening more terrain? Hopefully at least the Gondi and Casper will be running. Any news on other stuff or coverage up there so far?
Gondola is supposed to open on the 19th and its dumping.

Looks like another one coming this week. Let's hope!
Anything new? I'm heading up on Jan 5th, and it's not looking too promising.
Supposed to start dumping the 4th. Which is going to screw up your travels, and leave more pow for US!!
[only forecast i've seen is thru next week, and it's not too promising. Gotta think it will break soon after that tho!] Regardless, there will be zero crowds, it will be a great time to be here...
Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

How's it looking? Be there shredding on thurs-tues
Just got ten inches and the upper mountain is not opening today. Snowpack getting deeper but is still unstable....
Word from the long-timers is that this is the worst snow for first half of January for as long as anyone can remember, or maybe the worst since 1975.
Hobacks opened for a couple of days, then closed again. Tower 3 Chute was open for about 4 hours and was then considered ski-ed off and closed. Alta Chutes -- closed. Casper Bowl -- not open yet this year. Lower woods on Apres Vous -- same thing.
Anything near a South aspect is extremely solid surface.
This is Cheyenne Bowl taken from the trees down gully from the Bivouac Woods on Jan. 11:
Only one little beginners' terrain park is open, plus a couple of rails and logs scattered around Apres Vous. Half-pipe is solid and is being well maintained. It is smaller than the current competition standard, but that is fine with me. It's probably an 18fter. Current Olympic standard is 22.
That said, I'm finding loose snow in trees on all north and north-west aspects. Lot of veggie showing and way too much rock on lower half.
Hotels are reported to be at 30% occupancy. Three Tram rides yesterday were loaded with 22, 30 and around 50 people, respectively. Two rides in the 8 person gondola were solo. (Maybe I'll have to start showering more than once a month.)

Ah, Wilderness!
Any updates on the Jackson Situation? We're going to be there next weekend and wondering if there is any snow on the horizon?
so depressing.
The snowpack depth looks like early december!
