We spent some time skiing powder at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort and one day at Grand Targhee in nearby Alta, Wyoming. Jackson got pounded with snow starting last Saturday and continuing till about Wednesday. According to locals, the new snow was overdue.
Now, 100 people can ride the tram in 9 minutes to 10,450 feet to the top of Rendezvous Bowl where the snow is usually light and dry. Corbets Couloir was closed due to exposed rock and thin cover. Backcounty skiing can be accessed nearby through gates for those with the proper tools and training.
Bluebird skies followed the storm system opening up 100 mile views for skiers and riders. After a few sunny days another system rolled in with predictions of 10-15 inches in the higher elevations.
