The Mountain of All Mountains

What a beautiful snowcovered drive from the log constructed Jackson Hole Airport, immediately feel that you are somewhere special.
Driving through the mountain desert with elk & ranches, then appears the inspiring Teton Mountains! First thought is of trepidation looking up at the highest jaggered mountain range I have ever seen, bus driver must have seen the look on my face & assures me there are equally plenty of blue intermediate runs as the world famous black chutes! He was right, after two days of heavy snowfalls, finding my way with an experienced friend, the blues (our blacks) were so long & beautiful I was in heaven experiencing the thrill of real powder skiing that I had to choke back a tear!
Teton Mountain lodge a delight to stay as upon return each day, the valet welcomes you with "how was your day, welcome back!" Sit by the two log fires in the lobby, never want to leave this place! A drink in the bar , followed by a delicious meal, I never wanted the trip to end.
A great ski mountain , I would say the best I have ever experienced. Even got to attempt some blacks after some encouragement from my son.
Thankyou Tetons for a beautiful trip, I would love to explore these mountains in summer.
