Jackson Holeย Wyoming is absolutely killing it! Jackson has been getting a glorious dumping of snow once a week followed by a few sunny days and the repeating itself!! Storm cycles in the area have been ridiculous! A foot here, bluebird, a foot there, more blue sky, it’s been non stop!!

After the last big storm Jackson locals and vistitors enjoyed blue skies and light snow, the coverage here is excellent and everyone is taking full advantage!

Between storms is always the best time to find the good snow. The day before the report read 20 plus inches the lines seem shorter, everyone is more excited, and the snow, well ……….

Jackson Hole Resort topped the 200 inch mark yesterday with heavy wind and non stop snowfall! The warmer heavier snow fell on top of a light fluffy snow creating unstable conditions. Most of the resort was shut down on Monday Jan. 5 due to wind and dangerous avy condtions.

The Gondi was running slow and the resort barley could keep the lifts running. Upper mountain was closed and every run you got was brand new due to wind.

ย The high amount of snowfall on the snow report could hardly be felt, the warmer temps and high winds made the ridiculous amount of snow we received seem like only a few inches. That being said, it was a complete reset on the hill. “Gods Groomer”! Everything was smooth and bottomless, though not deep, imagine skiing you favorite area after it was closed for weeks with good snowfall. Brand new!

After the storm it was a total reset, everything was skiing like it just opened for the season, only with deep coverage.

The forecast is similar to what we have been seeing the last few weeks, sun mid week, snow again come the weekend. If the pattern is anything similar to the last 3 weeks, well you saw the pictures….
