Jackson Hole's Upper Mountain Paradise: Deep Powder and Teton Steeps Await
Published 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Ski Report for Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Wyoming
Daily Ski Conditions for Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Wyoming
Hey powder hounds, Jackson Hole is dishing out epic Tetons vibes right now, but it's a tale of two mountains—thin down low, deep up high where the real shredding lives. Base snow depth sits at a skimpy 7-8 inches, scraping record lows for early February, while mid-mountain clocks 46 inches (67% of average) and the summit/Rendezvous Bowl boasts 69-72 inches at 90% of normal, thanks to December's heavy dumps holding strong. Season total? A beastly 220-350 inches and climbing, with February already slamming over 10 feet on the upper mountain for nonstop face shots and floaty turns.
New snow's been light lately after a bone-dry January (just 51 inches at the Bowl vs. 85 average), but expect 1 inch today and another tomorrow, with 2 inches over the next week—freeze-thaw cycles keeping it prime above 8,000 feet. All 13 lifts are spinning strong, including the Aerial Tram from 9am-3:30pm, so lap those steeps like a local.
Weather's playing nice but wild: today's partly sunny highs near 40°F at 10k feet with breezy SW winds and 90% shot at snow showers turning to flurries tonight (lows 18°F). Look ahead—Tuesday high 38°F with 30% snow, Wednesday 39°F and 80% snow showers, Thursday 38°F/50% chance, then easing to partly cloudy lows around 15°F. Classic Jackson roulette: pack layers for rapid shifts.
Pistes are groomed and grippy mid-to-upper, but off-piste? Upper mountain's a powder paradise with 6+ feet recent additions building that 3-foot base boost—pure bliss for cliff sends and tree bombs, though lower elevations stay crusty and thin. Avalanche awareness is key with the buildup.
Pro tip: Free Stilson paved parking's open, and events like Kings & Queens of Corbet’s just crushed it—next up Steep & Deep camp Feb 25-28. La Niña's whispering more storms, so charge now before the white room fills up. Quads fired? See you sending it!
