"...WINTER STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM THIS EVENING THROUGH
LATE SATURDAY NIGHT...

* Snow accumulation...8 to 16 inches possible." - NOAA Riverton, WY today

Jackson Hole, WY has been THE place to be this year.  

• 573″ snowfall total.  
• Copious amounts of powder days (we had 23 ourselves…).
• A record breaking snowpack – Lines are in and being skied that rarely are even thought about…

Just to make double sure that this season will be one that will never be forgotten, Jackson Hole ordered up a Winter Storm Watch that is forecast to drop 8-16″ of snow on closing weekend that will leave closing day – this Sunday – an amazing powder day.

We can’t think of a better way to close out an amazing season at Jackson Hole.

This was our first season in Jackson and we absolutely fell in love.  In more ways than one.  This place is unreal.

NOAA has issued a Winter Storm Watch that is forecasting 8-16″ of snow today and tomorrow at Jackson Hole, WY:
