Going to be in Jackson this winter from the end of December to mid-March. Looking for touring partners or people to rip resort laps with. Fast confident skier with AT setup, AIARE 2 cert, rescue gear, and a JH pass. Trying to ski a ton, just don't know many people in the area. Hit me up!

Good more room for men when I come via ikon

I can’t imagine it adds that much traffic especially in the back side country and steeps

J hole is

a slush pit anytime past february. Not enough altitude

Really.... hard to believe

my local hills out east , highest is 4900’ , don’t turn to slush pits til mid March and that’s only if it rains significantly but they close immediately at end of March too

with killi being the exception they stay open but I can’t speak for their late season conditions

Haven’t booked yet I procrastinate

That’s how I know my room won’t b cheap m, I always stay slopeside , and try to avoid party homes like anything I buy , I find what I need and want and look at the price when it’s time to sign something

soon as my youngest hits college I’ll be a local and by then I should be able to find a suitable resort to live at

The only people leaving Jackson are the people

that can’t afford to live there, which is 99% of the country.
 
How to be a Jackson "local":

- Graduate from a fancy new england liberal arts school

- Move to Jackson

- work a little bit but parents pay rent

- live there for ~2 years

- complain that IKON people and tourists are ruining the mountain, hardcore "locals" like you are who really matter

- move back east to work a lame corporate desk job

- turn into an angry dad weekend warrior who skis in southern VT

Old enough to use money like a toy and young enough that my entertainment out values all , were you gonna give me a life lesson about savings ?

I mean cmon that guy been a dick for no reason from the start

just seems like everyone at Jackson hole is a bunch of inhospitable dicks , glad I come for the skiing not the people
 
14068405:skeirman said:
Word. Jackson Hole locals can suck a bag of dicks.

I don’t wanna b like that tho

I watch that place on YouTube like it’s a garden of eden , to think it’s polluted with guys like this , I don’t wanna believe it, I’d be so proud to show off “ my home mountain” to a tourist and see the stoke and awe that someone like me would have for something like that

and I’m not coming staying at the hostel , spending $0 , and taking up lift space , im efficient in the line on the mountain and I spend ??‍♂️ What da problem is

it’s like every mention of Jackson hole in a post

enjoy your stay there op Newschoolers is but a tiny window of what to expect I’m afraid

The magical time of year when every NSer gets together to beat up the rich kid !!

More like internet bullies mad at their own lives

I can imagine most ppl on here resemble a fat Warcraft player or a malnourished long haired junky , can’t imagine them getting rowdy

and from what I’ve seen , even a group of these lil ns bandits wouldn’t amount to more than a small shit to step over

Something tells me you’ve never made any money bud

maybe it’s cause you targeted me for not being on welfare , maybe it’s cause I’m not mental enough for a face tat , maybe it’s an imbalance of chemicals, maybe you were touched as a young boy identifying as a girl idk but just FYI even if you won , I wouldn’t pay u , and I’d smash u in the teeth and walk away free , Later bruh ima just pretend ur what ya r , a ghost , it’s time to shred not argue wit internet yards I’m ashamed I humored u this long see ya at Jackson I’ll b the one with a savage biff sticker and ikon pass on my helmet case a cunt wants ta get crippled ??‍♂️????
 
Working at JHMR as night janitor this winter need a floor/couch/garage to crash.

Will wax your skis, shovel snow, do your dishes, watch your dogs and buy you beer.

Also can pay up to $800 a month...

You started off well in this thread, but then you took a very douchey turn.

I had my first JH experience last season, we drove up to Jackson for a 3 day weekend, on the first day we got like 2 feet of snow, hit Targhee, got pitted, skied untracked pow the entire fucking day, they even opened a gate (someone's nipple, too lazy to find out whose it was), zero lines. Coming from SLC where on a powder day the line basically starts from our front door and BC gates don't open until 3 days after the storm this was like heaven and may have been the best day of our season.

Then the next day of that trip we decided to hit JH. Waited an hour for the tram, took a lap, could not find an inch of soft snow. The whole place was just beyond tracked, I'm talking rock hard snow all over. One could not have guessed a storm had dropped 2 feet of snow less than 48 hours earlier. Sure, it was a holiday weekend, and I'm sure a local would have known a secret pow stash or two, but whatever, at this point we were just a bit disappointed.

So yeah, I don't think I'll be back skiing JH anytime soon, but I'll definitely hit Targhee next time there is a big storm up there. I value pow and no lines more than steeps/terrain (especially at that price), but that is just my personal opinion.

Bro I don't respect that attitude at all. Employees everywhere get paid like shit, treated like shit by management, all so they can ski a little and keep the mountain open for you. Totally reasonable for them to get pissed when they work their asses off and have to stand in insane lines for the few hours they get of ski time. Yes people are bringing in money. Yes resorts need tourists. But please spend that money in the local economy rather than some massive resort conglomerate. Respect employees, it will get you miles.
 
I reckon I should have read through the crazy part of this thread before replying. I just like to ski, dudes. This thread went sideways.
