Road Trip Day 3 - "Cowboy Powder"
Woke up and changed plans after we saw the foot of fresh for Jackson Hole. Caught the first tram after a 30 minute delay and a $87 lift ticket. Was greeted with a whiteout up top and the lightest powder I'd ever seen. Too light in fact. Every turn was rewarded with the scraping sound of edge on hardpack mogul. Amazing terrain. Scary terrain. We came. We saw. We rode. We left early.
Planning the pass tomorrow and really hoping slc gets snow so we can get utarded!
Seeing new places that we've lusted after forever is fun, but nothing beats the powder!

The energy of 100 people on first tram on a powder day is amazing.
Two trams meeting means 1/2 way down.
