Let it SNOW!!

As many of you are starting to experience spring-like temperatures, it is definitely still winter here in Jackson Hole. We got 2" of new snow last night to add to our total of 43" of new snow over the past week! The forecast is for another foot of snow this weekend. The mountain has been blanketed with 392" of snow so far this season and there is not an end in sight, much to the delight of the local skiers. See if you can find Barry & I in some of the awesome ski photos shot at the mountain this week:

Cowboy Powder! Barry??

Let it snow! Michele??

Barry or Michele - would Barry really wear a white backpack?

Barry?? He was called the mogul meister a few weeks ago.

Morning hike up the mountain to get some fresh tracks, definitely NOT either of us!
So, did you recognize us in any of the photos? Hmmmmmm, that's funny - we aren't in any of the latest skiing photos. Oh well, at least some people are taking advantage and enjoying all of the fresh powder! If you love skiing fresh powder all I can say is - get your ski buns out here! In the meantime Barry & I will dream about what it will be like to one day conquer a mountain full of cowboy powder and lay down some fresh tracks. Certainly it will be a blog, just not sure when.

It's almost the weekend....enjoy!

Jackson Hole Interesting Fact:
97% of the 3,826,407 acres in Teton County (where we live and Jackson Hole is located)  are federally owned or state managed, including the Grand Teton National Park, the Bridger-Teton National Forest, and the National Elk Refuge. Only 3% of the land in the Jackson Hole area is privately owned. (Thus, real estate is EXTREMELY outrageous in price)
