We woke up to the ra-n word in Jackson, WY on Thursday morning. However, colder temperatures on the hill and a report of 12" of fresh kept us happy. The heavy snow and high winds delayed many of the lifts, but once we got up, the snow was surfy and fun. Not traditional blower powder, but a good leg workout on the 3,000+ feet of vertical.

And, we also found many locals willing to help us find good snow (thanks to the guys at www.earlyups.com!) or give us their honest take on powder and tourists (watch until the end!).
