As for runs, Wally World trees were super fun. Hobacks on a good pow day will burn your legs to shreds.
Teton Thai is Iguchi I think

One of my enduring memories of JHMR is the only double black diamond cat track I've ever ridden. It was a normal cat track but getting stuck required dropping into mandafory full-commitment terrain. Looking at the trail map I want to say it was the Tensleep traverse.

It was great. I was surprised how uncrowded it was there. I spent a day at Snowking too (indy pass) after they got 8" and no lines at all. I was pretty cooked by the 2nd day. I never had to wait in line, was just doing constant laps on the Sublette chair

Didn't rent a car this time, was great being able to just take a bus and not deal with parking, waiting in lines. Flew directly into Jackson instead of driving from SLC. Really easy shuttle from town to the airport ($10)

Ski Patrol is pretty liberal about where they post their cliff warning signs... a lot of them are just maybe 5-7' drops, so if you dont mind that, you get a lot of lines no one touches the entire day.



I didn't get to tour this trip, but really want to next season. Saw so many people in the tram line set to go through the gates (incl Brian Iguchi)

Snowking looks small but low-key gnarly. I just remember looking up at it from town and thinking "woof that's some serious pitch for a groomer".
