Report from March 14, 2026<\/em><\/p>\n

The storm hit today at 10 am.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I slept in, stretched, ate a big breakfast, and ran out the door around noon, hoping enough time had gone by for the new snow to fill things in a bit.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I went straight to the tram and rocked and rolled up to the top in a raging wind.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rendezvous Bowl was icy and windswept in its uppers but softer and more forgiving halfway down.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I popped out of bounds, did a couple of hikes, and clicked my skis on in a face-gouging wind.<\/strong><\/p>\n

When I got to my drop-in, there were a few inches of snow and a foot of wind.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I skied an open slope that was wind-prone and found mostly scratchy old snow just beneath 0\u20134\u2033 of new snow.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rutted ice, smooth ice, mini wind slabs, and some very nice wind-buff snow in spots.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mostly, the snow was very loud, but there were about 20 muffled, quiet turns.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I felt completely lost upon extraction as the low snow levels down low made the landscape unrecognizable at times.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Regardless, I smoothly and easily glided back to the ski resort and called it a day, hoping for more snow this evening.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As of this writing at 5:36 pm MT, it appears to have stopped snowing at JHMR, but the wind is whipping.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Jackson Hole Summit weather station is showing 43 mph winds with 71 mph gusts as of 5:00 pm (the latest reading) today.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Local radar confirms that the main band of moisture is just to our north in Yellowstone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fingers crossed it bends back down south to the Tetons this evening.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I had high hopes for a Cody day tomorrow, but it\u2019s hard to believe any snow will be left up there at all with this wind, ha!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Either way, I\u2019m going to go up there early and have a look.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I love this place.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thanks, Wyoming!<\/strong><\/p>\n
