This is especially true for 4 extremely broke, extremely dirty college kids.
After 8 hours of driving, we pulled into the Motel 6 in Jackson.
The goal of the trip was to maximize fun and minimize spending.
The forecast predicted that 2 days of bluebird would follow the massive incoming storm cycle.
We thought we had hit the perfect storm.
We spent two days at Teton pass, one day at Grand Targhee and 2 days at Jackson Hole.
In traditional dirt bag fashion, the day started with a four star breakfast in the parking lot.
With skis in hand, we headed to the Dream-catcher lift for our first run of the day.
We stepped off the lift as soon as patrol flipped the open sign for the NIPPLE.
Higher than predicted temperatures accompanied by high winds created a set of conditions that were not ideal.
An inversion came in, resulting in a 20-degree swing from the bottom to top of Jackson Hole.
The inversion layer was visually awe inspiring, but made for sub par snow conditions.
Our days in Jackson were rad but our days in Targhee were Radder(er).
