Finally!!

Woohoo!  It’s finally snowing here in Jackson, and boy oh boy, it’s looking to be a doozie of a storm!  Predictions are calling for this storm cycle to drop somewhere in the range of 55 inches by saturday!

Between with the cold weather (~5°), howling winds (40mph with 75+mph gusts) and knowing this storm was going to last a few days, we had a late start, but by the time we were up on the hill, things were already lookin’ good.

This shot underneath the expert chutes was so good on my first go around, we just had to do it again.  Here’s my father going through some deep and light Teton pow.

And good enough to go even one more time!  I like gettin’ deep

There was a lot of snow flying around – it made for a good ice beard.

Later on, we skied through some nicely wind buffed powder in an all too obvious spot .  Maybe not as deep here, but man it skied just wonderfully!

As the day went on, the skiing only got better.  Here’s my father coming down through some more deep snow.

Likewise, I enjoy the deep snow (and my Gotamas)!

Yehaw!

What a fun day today was!  I can’t wait for tomorrow, especially since the snow is only supposed to fall harder and harder through tonight and tomorrow!  Yehaw, here we go!
