Got a job as an instructor, looking for dudes to shred with. Also, anything I should be aware of with regards to working there?

I'll be there plenty.


All my roomates last year worked up there, but I don't think there was anything big to be aware of. Monday night football with free pizza at O'Rourks is a good thing. Shoot me a PM when you move here!

Nothing! There will be way more this year, need to hit it with good snow!

Trying to ski more this year, both at the ghee and at the rock.

Good.. very good. I'll be around all winter.. or most of the winter. Trying to pick up a collective pass, and for sure getting that new CAST. So I am down to come tour with you.. since the only person down here who tours will be gone most of the season.

I skinned up! (Thanks Cy!) conditions weren't too bad.. considering it's October.

Coverage isnt bad, any rock you really need to worry about you'll see. Good wind buffed pow in places, icy/heavy in others.

I think it's making a decent little base, and the next few storms that roll through should be good.

Already, opening day is next Friday.

We should have an NS meet up. I know there will be a few NSers coming up from Reno in late January.

Recent Ghee pics have been flooding my feed lately. Looks pretty mint for preseason. I've always argued that targhee has a deep to flat problem... when the snow is good the mountain is too flat. Anyway it looks worth the hike this past week and I hope some of you got the goods. I've been too busy surfing and visiting friends/fam back East.

Now that teton pass is filling in on both sides of the road, fewer Jackson peeps are even bothering to reverse commute over. This is prob the last weekend open to uphill travel before mountain ops closes it for pre-opening day work, but don't quote me on that.

Would be fun to ski some pass laps and show guys around

Got my hands on a free day pass tomorrow to use some chairlifts at Targhee for the first time. Let me know if any of ya want to rip it up. So stoked to have more time to explore the hill without boot packing that whore.

I probably won't be able to make It to the Ghee again for awhile as that free ticket was just pure luck, but I'm always down to ski the pass or something. Let me know if you venture to the dark side and ski Jackson and I will always be down to ride!

Bumping this thread. I grew up skiing Targhee and moved back to IF about 5 years ago. If anybody wants to carpool from IF and get some laps in just let me know.
