Never Never Land

We finally got a small storm to bring us a decent amount snow last weekend. There's still a few rocks and stumps to look out for but I did get the best POW turns I've had at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort! Ya it's my first year in Jackson and it was nothing like some of the turns that I had last year in the Pacific Northwest. But it's early and it was still a lot of fun to get to a taste of what the resort has to offer. The gondy also opened so Julie and I got to see a ton more of the mountain. We still need more snow to get the whole resort open but we are incing are way there

By noon it was getting tracked out and we were a bit beat but before calling it a day I hit up my friend Knox who was planning on hiking up at Teton Pass. The enthusiasm from his fist lap was spilling out of my headset. It took him 10 seconds to get us to beeline it to Wilson. We met up with Knox and his crew and hitch to the top of the pass and hiked Chiver's Chiver's isn't much of a hike unless your still drunk from the night before but it was Harms birthday so......

Happy Birthday Harms
Here's Knox in some nice deep POW

Togwotee

I road up at Togwotee Pass today. Togwotee is about an hour northeast of Jackson. We didn't get there till late in the afternoon and the light was shit so I just snapped a few shots of Darrel and Paul playing on there sleds. Then hiked a little peak a few times, there was tons of snow and I got a few nice POW turns!

I think I like this one the best

Back in the Backcounrty

I got to ride in the backcountry for the first time this year and for the fist time since I moved to Jackson Hole. We started at the top of Teton Pass at about 8,000 feet and ended at the top of Mt. Glory at around 10,ooo. It was a tough hike but it felt good to be back up in the mountains with some snow!!! It wasn't the best snow but we did have a few nice pow turns. Any day riding is a good day right? Julie and I also got to see see what Jackson Hole has to offer and all I can say is SICK The mountains are just screaming with bowls, shoots,trees and cliffs.... the best part, you can ride all of it

The top of Mt. Glory 10,086 feet

The ride down is always worth the hike. Here's Julie eatin it up

MY NEW LOVE

Every time I see the Grand Tetons it blows my mind. Here's my favorite shot form a hike today.

Here's a shot I took on a hike that Julie and I went on today. It took about an hour and half to get to the top but we did take the long way and well, I am way out of shape. See how close the mountains are to my house, pick your line!!!!
