The 2014-15 season had not been a great one throughout the West, and actually, Jackson saw less snowfall than New Hampshire that year. The season apparently peaked for the storm where Rosie and I skied 25 Short back in December, and had been underwhelming otherwise. When we set the dates for this trip as early May, we thought we'd be pushing the early end of the typical corn season, but unfortunately a lot of warm weather had melted the snow line even higher than expected in the couple weeks ahead of our trip. However, we made the most of it and had an excellent time.
The day after arriving, we decided to go for an acclimation day in the (closed) resort. We hiked for an hour or so to hit the nearest consistent snow, at the bottom of the Thunder chair.
Woohoo, on skins.
