18/19 Jackson/Targhee/Tetons Thread- Ski the big red one

[Djongo Unchained]

If you have the flexibility and can wait for a storm, then do that. If ya just can't wait, then enjoy all the aspects of this valley during a high pressure spell. Skiing at the vill is almost always good, regardless of the low tide.

And we'll get yer vert or challenge on if not yer soft.

Today's snow, 2 days after the storm was groomed into a super-g run all over. Tomorrow the LPR's come out for some bacon and eggs.
Oh yeah, noticeably less people today onslope. Everybody gets their own 40 acres again. Thank you...

Agreed. Storm-chasing is the best.

[passholer]

Puking again. When the government gets back running and roads get plowed I bet Wimpies / Peaches will be real deep, and real untouched.....

I feel obligated to enjoy a few on the town hill. Anyone else gonna hit the king for lunch laps.

[pfluffenmeister]

Will pray.

Soft snow or vert challenge, it's all good.

That's my plan!

3 inches of puke. yeah. No.

Ski quality is high. Coverage is adequate. Crowds have diminished. Still a bit of a Cluck-a-Rama but way better than 5 days ago.

Forecast says incoming precip from mid Tuesday thru early Fri. Hope for it.

A clear day to learn the vill helps a shitton for that next storm day.

PFluffen - what's yer dates, etc.? Need anything? Bringing CO. goods?

I should bail on da villy and roll the king...hmmmm.

You should. Wife and I will be out there around 11:30, (barring any work bullshit). Would be fun to take a lap.

[Djongo Unchained]

Got sucked into the villy vortex. I'm gonna make a date witchu.

And BTW - Fuck that IKON pass. Clucker pass is what it should be called.

On meteorological a front, next Wednesday: " … a deep plume of Pacific moisture pushes back into the Intermountain West."
Mmmmm …

Just need to find a sexy meteorologist to say that to me slowly.

From the BTAC:

Yesterday, a skier was caught, carried and fully buried on a west facing slope at an elevation of 9,600 feet in the Snake River Range. The skier was quickly recovered and did not sustain injuries.

High Mountain Heli shenanigans?

[skiing-in-jackson]

Free day at Snow King was great. It was night skiing for us. I hear that during the day the town hill was pretty busy.

Conditions were fine- actually seems like the best in years. The view of town is always fantastic.

[mall walker]

Hah! Forgot about this. Enter thread drift. Disney throwing lemmings off a cliff for a documentary. Hilarious and sad at the same time, check out the video.

Ok back to the important stuff... storms in the Tetons, high pressure breaking down in the PNW and storms inbound later this week.

[Parvo]

This month is the resort's Golden Ticket offer and I found out over the weekend that your Mike D's Yard Park pass counts to get you 40% off.

It's definitely Manuary as well. Large dude groups of front range folks, utards, and every swinging dick with an Ikon pass is here. The hot tub at Teton Lodge had 20 drunk dudes in it and two girls who hopefully left before the tub started filling with ejaculate.

Laughin!!!

That's called Dude Stew.

One time looking out the bar window at the P-dog at Alta I counted 45 dudes in 2 hot tubs that are next to each other and another dozen or so dudes frolicking around in the pool. Not one female.

I'm pretty much sick of the ikon ass holers myself.
