It snowed powder yesterday in the Tetons. In April. In the middle of the day...
Gahhhh yesterday was so epic and I can't believe I got in one last epic ski day before the season ended. Jackson Hole closed down April 4th but Targhee is still open. I missed skiing the entire month of March and was totally bummed that my skis will have to be decorative for the next 7 months. But mother nature delivered one last time. And we were ready to scoop in the goods! Targhee is about 45 mins drive from Jackson, WY. We got to Targhee around noon and bought have day passes at $58. That's pretty expensive if you have a season's pass at Jackson Hole. In any case, it was worth every penny. It had snowed so much that there was powder under the one chair lift that was operating. Knee deep powder in some sections near the trees. And the best part was that there was NO PEOPLE! If this was a powder day in Jackson, there would be no signs of any powder at noon. So Targhee gets +1 in my opinion. We spent the 3 hours skiing around the main chair and getting into some fun deep stuff. I had a total blast and I am seriously considering getting a season's pass to Targhee along with Jackson! Ski bum alert!! Anyway, if you have a choice for where to go on a weekday powder day, I would recommend Grand Targhee Resort, for short lift lines, insanely awesome backcountry terrain and some awesome untracked pow!
