Jackson Hole's Teton Trickle: 3.5 Feet of January Pow and 88 Percent Terrain Open

Description
Ski Report for Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Wyoming
Daily Ski Conditions for Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Wyoming
Hey shredders, Jackson Hole is firing on all cylinders right now, delivering that Teton magic with a snowy start to 2026 that's got every pow hound grinning ear to ear. Picture this: a relentless "Teton Trickle" of consistent storms from early January dumped over 3.5 feet in one week alone, transforming moguls into smooth fields and reopening Lower Faces and Hobacks for full vertical glory. Summit snow depth sits at a beefy 217 inches, mid-mountain at 149 inches—103% of average—while the season total keeps climbing past that early 146-inch mark at the top.
Terrain's wide open at 88% (114 of 130 trails), with ALL 13 lifts spinning, including Big Red Aerial Tram (9am-3:30pm) and high-speed quads like the new Sublette for quick access to Rendezvous Bowl stashes. Pistes are prime with fresh, dense powder that skis like double the depth, well-formed features for park rats, and groomers keeping blues buttery—perfect for carving or airing it out. Off-piste? Bold lines reward the brave with jet-dry vapor layers, but watch for lingering wind effects and always check BTNF avalanche forecasts.
Today's vibe at 10,000 feet: sunny skies, highs near 29°F, light NW winds—prime for bluebird laps without the freeze. Nights dip to 8°F under mostly clear stars. Look ahead: tomorrow sunny highs of 33°F, then 35°F mostly sunny, 37°F with calm winds, before a 20% chance of snow showers late Friday into a mostly cloudy 19°F low. La Niña's weak grip promises more precip for northwest Wyoming, so pack for active storms.
Pro tip: Season pass holders anywhere score 50% off lift tickets through Jan 16 (check extensions), but capacity's limited—reserve now to avoid FOMO. New Stilson paved parking's free and open. Whether you're charging expert chutes (50% of terrain) or sessioning intermediates (40%), the 4,139-foot vert and 2,500 acres are calling. Get after it, stay safe, and live to ski another day!
