My friend Mike and I wanted to explore some fresh terrain with our backcountry skis.
LET'S DRIVE NORTH!
Picture
Caption: Rain, lashing wind, and grey skis swallowed motivation on day 1.

Picture
Caption: But we set out for Teton Pass anyway.
Because we didn't want to be slugs!

In an igloo, naturally.
Caption: But how was the skiing?
Picture
Caption: Good. Really good.
Picture
Caption: Despite the wet and cold it was so nice we decided to go twice! We hitchhiked back to the top of Teton Pass with a van full of Chileans and their smelly gear.

Caption: After lap 2 we grabbed a growler of delectable suds at Teton Brewery.

Looming clouds promised more snow...

fresh snow beneath our skis and
a lot more sunshine.
Taylor Mountain was our objective.

A piece of my heart always remains behind, in Wyoming.
