The Quick and The Dead ~ A Western Odyssey

[Buster Highmen]

If I brought 6 slabs of duck breast and a few bottles of red wine, whose chaqteau is the likely crucible of stoopid culinary h00haw?
Regarding crash space, I'm looking for proximity to evening affairs and misfit miscreant mayhem.

I will look into a group rate for passes, stand by.

Generally there's not too many ways to get around the ticket purchase. I certainly know a few ways but that could endanger your freedoms if caught. And they can be real d-bags if they think they can bust some one. Just ask Passholer. They fucked him over for a minor dispute.

All but the 2 highest chairs have rfid gates so it's a gauntlet that used to only take a nug or two to get past.

Any locs with a full pass and therefore some vouchers, we'd be stoked if you can donate some to the cause, hook a mag up with a half pricer. Yer karma will be great.

iKonic gets 10 buddy passes at 25% off window. Better than nothing

Not last year with COVID and all, but the Idaho Falls Ski Club in the past has sold discounted vouchers to members. Something to look at once season starts

[Ski220]

That is correct, I think it was around $65 a night last winter.

Ski220 chime in here please. He spent about 6 weeks there last season...

7 weeks. But who's counting

$366.29 per week.

Pulled the trigger on mountain collective pass, so although I'd be receptive to cheaper "lift skiing" options I should be covered for lift tickets now. They have a canadian $ at par thing going on right now so my calculations suggest I saved about $140 USD ($12,432.67 CAD) buying the pass, and who knows, maybe I'll ski some other spots this season.

[Bobcat Sig]

I'm an Ikonoclast yet again. Another trip - or maybe two - is in the works for the Tetons. So I'm in for some chicanery. And maybe this time, maybe I can finally link up with Djongo.

What is “the” week?

It seems like late jan early feb shenanigans. But I can’t find prime time kickoff.
Tried reading through the thread but got bored.

I’ll be out with fam after prez week. But thinking about a solo invasion earlier to crop dust you all.

^^^^^^^^^^^ January 22 through February 6

Alright, alright, alright...The competition is back on Maggots!!!

This next ski season, '21-'22, we'll be hosting a mega-mag summit here in the Motherland. Please re-read the original post below and consider yourself invited. From the old hard guys to the fresh jongs, we wantcha here.
Picking a small window for dates throws a curveball in plan making so this gig's gonna run from January 22 thru February 6.
That's 2 full weeks, including the weekends on each end. The weekend in the middle should be the major party dates.
Hopefully this way a maximum amount of participation may be achieved. We'll see.

Have a great summer, you deserve one, then get yer game on for some serious ski shenanigans next season...

I was lucky enough to ski a little with Doug C. in my youth and will never forget him explaining to me the notion that pretty much any 2 skiers makes a race. Not every run but sometimes you just gotta bang that shit out.

And that's what this is, an invitation to a race, with anyone, to anywhere, anyhow, anyway.

And There will be a multitude of Rippers, Top Shelf, 1%er's as well as a solid Contingent of Old Lions.

When debating bumping up for JH on yer Ikon this year, maybe consider this as a great opportunity to make the up charge more worthwhile.

The local mags are hip to help with info on places to stay, what to do, how to throw down in this town.

General timeframe for now is between mid January to mid February.
Typically plenty of snow and a little quieter. One never knows.

Regardless of conditions, it's the Village, so there will be something to do.
We are incredibly Safety conscious , but they've never heard of Mr. Tosh here, so...Irie.

Come on and see the Shootout or Bring your Firepower.

This old fuck from Trenchtown is targetting late January, like the week of Jan 27 to Feb 3.
I'll sort out the transport, lifts and crash space between now and then.

Very cool buster. I'm there from the 25th to the 3rd myself. Look very forward to making some turns and sitzmarks with you my friend!

This is the timeframe I am shooting for as well.

Hutash, LBSkier, and I are planning for a week in early January. Maybe we can warm things up for you and the rest of the crew?

Getting stoked for more powder skiing with DJ and you again.

FYI : The motel 6 in jh is one of the cheapest winter places to stay. They opened up winter reservations for the Q & D timeframe beginning on 10/1.
Anyone looking for cheapish digs for this shindig, give them a call. Bring your pet!

It's also about 2 blocks from the bus stop; and the grocery store is another 2.

and I’ll add that it was remodeled a couple yrs ago so it’s not the worst motel 6 experience either

As someone that's enjoyed the hospitality of the Jackson Ski Bum Hilton; I can attest - it'll do just fine. The walking distance to the store and the bus stop is key.

Great doggie stoke you two!

[Tri-Ungulate]

Booked the Motel6 for 1/27-1/30. Looking forward to making turns with you k00ks agin'.

[Djongo Unchained]

^^^^
Most excellent T-U. Will be good to see ya again and this time we'll get some laps in together. Look forward to turning with mags who've been fighting the good fight what with the c-19 and all.
Hellz yeah!

[Djongo Unchained]

I just did a fly-by on the JH Motel6 website and see that you can make a reservation now for a room at $59.99 weekdays and $85.99 for fri/sat nights. I am a M6 member so that might be 5-10% off rack rate.

I booked a room with 2 full beds from 1/26 - 2/2 in case someone needs space and they're booked. I can cancel the day of reservation. So if you're debating, book now and you're free to cancel, no fee, at any time until 6pm day of rez.

Honestly, staying in JH midwinter for $60 a night is a crazy great deal. Makes the lift ticket fees way more viable...

The best advice to skiing Jackson is don't follow ski tracks that you don't know, especially if they go under a rope.

Been there done that, but inbounds. Once I proposed back up about 100 yards in bottomless. Thank god I was in shape. 10 years later I said fuck it, the hike out would have been worse than the dicey descent.

One of my worst inbounds runs ever was a 3 inch "powder" day in March about 2 years after I learned to ski. I almost pissed myself with excitement when I saw just one set of tracks going into the Hobacks. I mistakenly led my friends in and were treated to endless triangular frozen bumps which led to slush filled mud holes. That run kicked my newbie ass hard!
