Jeff and I just finished skiing at Teton Lakes (10am Saturday). It’s a bonus day! Doug tuned up the skate track last night (thank you!), adding some alternative routes to avoid bare patches.
It was really fun and fast. The classic track looks mostly very good, although the south facing hills are melted out. The Cow Pasture is still skiable but it is fading fast. Please keep your eyes open for grass, ice and puddle patches, and there’s a little asphalt peeking out. I think we should get a few more days of skiing there.
In another week or two, we’re moving to higher ground for skiing and also transitioning to dry-land sports. Meanwhile, don’t forget the groomed Nordic skiing at Kelly Canyon, Teton Canyon, Alta, Targhee (if the thin air at that altitude doesn’t bother you), ski trails in Jackson Hole, Mink Creek (Pocatello), Harriman State Park, and - always a favorite- the Rendezvous Trails in West Yellowstone. (They had a good 12” of new snow earlier this week, by the way.)
Crust cruising on the dry farms can be so much fun, just be conscientious if there are no-trespassing signs. We love our farmers and respect their farmland.
