As a result, the day we arrived wasn't that great, I actually managed to injure my knee from repetitive bouncing on icy bumps. The next day, we got a fresh 3-4 inches and that made things better. Some parts of the mountain were still pretty poor (icy) but I found some spots where the powder had stayed and was reasonably good. We also found some untouched powder runs that had to be paid with pretty bad bottoms. We took a ride back down to the condo area in a mostly untouched powder field, and the bottom was also not fun, but eh, nothing's free :)
Jackson Hole is a great mountain, I can only imagine how good it must be on a real powder day. And boo for global warming causing most mountains to almost instantly ice up to crud a day or two after each snow fall now :(
we were in the clouds half the time with limited viz
some stupid guy photobombed many of my pictures :)
nice view when the clouds were gone
I tried to teach Arturo to use poles, it was hard :)
For out last run, we went to north Hoback, the top was pretty good, the bottom was ice unfortunately, but great views on the way down:
those people were working way too hard for their icy snow :)
After 2 days, I decided to call it a day though, as the next day was only going to go downhill (ice again) and my knee needed a bit of recovery (also Tahoe was going to get a monster dump 3 days later, so I had to get home for that :)
