An Insider's Guide to Jackson Hole (Part c-Tram, Sublette & Lower Faces)

My hack for the Hobacks is to cruise along the boundary rope. It’s the best pow on the mountain and takes a long time to track out. The wind whipping down Rock Springs Canyon makes several wind lips to jump off, too. There used to be a sign marking the steepest way down The Bowl. It gets less traffic than the east ridge side and easiest way down.

Shout out to snow bound teenagers who are always more than happy to act as hype men for anything cool.

Great video. Unpopular opinion but Jackson is the most overrated resort for extreme skiing. I mean almost every ski magazine or website has Jackson at #1 for challenge. The only thing I can give it is that it sure beat's you up for your cardio alone. But besides corbet's and casper bowl the inbounds extreme terrain doesn't compare to resorts that don't brag nearly as much. Crested Butte, Whistler, Snowbird, Kicking Horse, Revelstoke, Palisades all seem superior. I'm interested to know what you think.

I feel like Jackson's "extremes" prinarily refers to the sidecountry/backcountry offerings. When augmented with the inbounds, that becomes what everyone talks about, and then word-of-mouth through several thousand conversations misconstrues that to be just the inbounds, if I had to guess. But as far as your argument, I'd say that while it certainly is one of the more challenging resorts I've visited by terrain division threshold (JH dbl blacks>other mtn dbl blacks), it's far from the hardest.

@@SRGSkiing Completely agree. I still think it’s definitely a difficult mountain with some dope terrain.
