Report from March 11th, 2019

Yesterday, Owen Leeper and I went for a walk off the tram at Jackson Hole, WY.

The weather was terrific.

Sunny, warm, no wind.

Easy living.

Owen slashed a steep fin and it was gorgeous to watch.

We then cruised over and skied a steep, sluffy line that made my whole day.

It was a blast to race my sluff – which was just on my heels – down such a clean, fun line.

The snow is still good out there anywhere it hasn’t been baking in the sun.

Jackson Hole has already seen 484″ of snowfall this season and the skiing and riding has been unreal.

I just had the most incredible 4 days there and I can’t wait to come back very soon.
