japanadaBuds are way easy to come by out here! Where are you staying when you come out?
And this sunday and monday are gonna be awesome! Hopefully it stays cold so we can enjoy walk on trams a few more times before the lifts are packed with the vacationors!!
ERICA.MNDear Jhole! im moving out end of May/beginning of June and looking for a place to rent! I know it's hard to find summer stuff so why not start now? I honestly would be perfectly fine and actually prefer an air mattress in a living room and a Cubby in the corner. might be adopting a dog in a few weeks so that would be the other thing (but he's 2 and well behaved)! Let me know and I'll even be stoked to shred with you guys when im there in march! Someone be my BC tour guide :)
J-EvsGoing to be in Jackson next week (4-10). Been religiously checking the weather and it had been calling for snow everyday that week, sizable amounts too, until today and now it says nothing. Anyone who actually lives out there have any idea of what you think may be in store next week?
thatparkskiierHow is spring skiing in jackson hole?

japanadaLooks like the next 5 days are gonna be pretty white!!!!
BrewskiJrComin Wednesday thru Sunday. Never been to Jackson before. What are the things you can't miss on and off the mountain?

japanadaPicked a great time! Waffles up top, corbetts, top to bottom tram laps, the VC. Where you staying
nsfairyUghhh one month till I get Corbetts waffles again! And stoked to find affordable housing for the summer!!
japanadaWoot Woot!! Start looking now...last year people were sleeping on couches for $200 a month. Housing was tiiiiiight, and still kinda is. What are you doing this summer out here?
[J_Gasper]how is the snow typically the second week of march? may be coming out for our spring break but dont want slushy shit.
SkiBum.JH was nice the day I went.
Stayed in bounds with some friends. Good mountain. One of the best Ive been too. Skied most in North America so stoked to get that one off the list. Jumped into Corbits with all the other out of towners as well. What a fuck show at the top of that.
SimplyCleanWhen I was there last week, we witnessed a dude blow up on the second drop-in turn and tumble/slide down literally the whole thing from below. Was one of the worst things I've witnessed - turns out he broke his leg and some other things.
On a brighter note, that natural booter right below corbets that you bomb through the mogul field is fun as hell.
japanadaWell given what the rest of the US is dealing with, it will hopefully be pretty good.
But to answer you question, it can snow 2 feet, then be 50 at the base the next day. Or it can be 15 degrees and dry as hell. This winter has been crazy everywhere and JH is no different. Even slush snow is a lot of fun when you have killer terrain!
japanada^ Been open for a while now.
[J_Gasper]got it. it said on their site for a few consecutive days that it wasnt so i was just curious.
japanadaYea its a day to day thing. They will close it if its rock solid at the drop in. Usually once you make the turn it softens up tho. Worth the poach tho if you havnt had the chance to hit it on your last day. What are they gonna do, take your ticket?
volvotomI will be there 4th week in March. My ski buddy had to go and break his wrist (snowboarding of course). Better to stay at the hostel or down in city of Jackson?
[J_Gasper]really random question but..
im going out with the ski club of my school next week. our flight arrives a couple hours before they do so we wont be able to check in. we're staying at cowboy village and need a near by bar. does anyone know a fake Id friendly bar around the area?
japanadaDo you look really young? Ive watched many IDs get snagged at the Cowboy and The Local. Id suggest Pinky Gs or The Tavern.
[J_Gasper]update for anyone coming soon...
pretty obvious statement if you're looking at the weather, but the snow at JHMR is real shitty right now. It freezes over at night so bring your ice skates for the morning, and then skinny skis for the afternoon because its getting thick real quick. far (skiers left) of the mountain wasnt bad until about 1ish, then it got soupy. I havent hiked the headwall, but it looks like the snow is a little better up there. I heard its still really bad, but anything will be better than the down low stuff. and then obviously corbets is closed. its pretty raw right now and rocks are showing.
brought my only my jeffreys. hooray for me being a dumbass. nothing worse than heavy snow with even heavier skis.
