High and Dry in the Tetons
Teton County is officially high and dry. We only have a 35 inch base of snow in the mountains which is just enough to cover the rocks under a few inches of snow. This makes for what should be excellent ski runs interwoven with rocky land mines on Teton Pass.
The Jackson Hole Mountain Resort opened 2.5 trails last weekend and without new snow we will be stuck skiing the same 2.5 trails again this weekend. The crazy part about ski resorts is how they get away with how 2.5 trails equals 11 on the ski report. I guess the trails must change names every 500 feet.
The 2.5 open trails are serviced by a highspeed quad that whisks riders up 2,100 vertical feet in only a few minutes. This enabled me to ski over 16,000 vertical feet in under 2 hours last weekend. It was good training for my legs.
