Gabrielle Gasser

I am a recent graduate from Washington University in St. Louis with majors in Film and Media Studies and English Literature. I grew up in Big Sky, Montana and I learned to ski when I was 2 years old. I now live in Jackson, Wyoming where I was a ski instructor last winter at JHMR. I also love to read, take photos, and explore out in nature.

Buying Women’s Skis Can Be Harder Than You Think

top women's skis

After skiing the same Völkl Kikus for eight years, it was time for a change.  Don’t get me wrong, I loved those skis, and they served me well.

Trip Report: Mount Woodring, Grand Teton National Park, WY

Halfway up Woodring

This summer, it snowed on August 31st. While early snows certainly aren’t unheard of here in Jackson, WY, this particular storm really cramped my style since I was planning on going on an alpine adventure September 1st. I discussed the snow with my adventure partners and we still decided to go for it and bag Mount Woodring. So, at 6 […]

Trip Report: Buck Mountain, Grand Teton National Park, WY

Recently, I went on one of my scariest Teton adventures yet.  My friend Brenden (my trusty guide up the Middle) and I decided to bag 11,943-foot Buck Mountain. We started a little later, closer to 7 a.m. since the approach was, allegedly, shorter than others. Immediately, we lost our way trying to find the climbers trail that branches off from […]

Trip Report: The Middle Teton

Walking through the meadows

It is 3:30 a.m. and I am awake, cranky, and ready to climb the Middle Teton, my first ever mountain.  This will be the highest elevation I have achieved under my own power.  I am nervous but excited. The six of us drive up to Grand Teton National Park and get to the trailhead at about 5:00 a.m.  It is […]

Comet NEOWISE Will be Bright Tonight

Comet NEOWISE over the Tetons

There’s a comet passing close by Earth this summer and it’s a once in a lifetime, well several lifetimes, opportunity to view it.  The comet is named NEOWISE after NASA’s satellite Near-Earth Object Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer which discovered it on March 27.  After it passes from view, it won’t be seen again for another 6,800 years. NEOWISE is special […]

Thawing Permafrost Could Trigger New Pandemic

In the middle of a global pandemic, what else could possibly go wrong?  Well, another pandemic.  Except this new one could be triggered by bacteria revived from thawing permafrost in the Arctic. Wait back up, is this for real?  Sadly yes. During a major skillshare meeting last November in Hannover, Germany, scientists discussed the threat of microbes revived by the […]

The European Union just eased up their coronavirus travel ban to allow people from 15 countries to travel to the bloc, but the United States isn’t one of them.  To make the list requires a reciprocal easing of bans and though China is on the list, they have yet to ease their restrictions.  Right now, the US has travel bans […]
