32 Days until Opening Day at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort

Saw this moose out my living room window on Thursday. I"m not entirely sure why there have been so many Moose in the Valley this fall, but this is one of 4 that has been hanging around in our yard for the past month or so and doing some solid pruning of all my trees.

Taken last week, this is yet another example of why you should not try and short cut the switch backs on Teton Pass.  Fortunately, no one was hurt, except maybe a bruised ego of the driver who had borrowed the RV from a friend.  Oops.

Here's a shot from the JHMR camera at the Bridger Center.  With AM temps in the Valley consistently below below freezing,The North facing slopes pictured here, the Expert Chutes, Tensleep Bowl and Corbet's, will probably keep the show that there now. Winter is coming, book now!
