As I mentioned in earlier post, I was originally planning to go to Jackson last week, right after my little break back home. But weather pattern was such it favors staying in Utah. I changed my plan and was rewarded with 2 glorious days of full on powder in Park City/Canyons! http://forums.alpinezone.com/showth...2-24-2017-Park-City-UT-Bonus-days-Powder-Daze
Deciding not to fight the Salt Lake city crowds on the weekend, I moved on. forecast was calling for daily snow fall in Jackson, adding up to almost a foot. I made my way there.
Saturday was my travel day. I made my lazy way over to Jackson, stopping to check out Lava Hot Spring. It was refreshing to soak my tired muscles from the 2 days of "hard work" lapping powders.
After the hot spring, I expected the next 2 1/2 hr of easy driving to Jackson. Instead, I found myself driving white knuckled on a road that's got several inches of blown in snow, courtesy of my in-car navigation system. At one point, I started to doubt if I were on the right road! I stopped to check a REAL map (paper map). That's when a couple cars (I mean trucks) came by. And after a quick consultation to reaffirm that I was indeed driving in a well-established state route (which just had a lot of snow on it!), I proceeded slowly and cautiously through that snow field. It took much longer than the distance would indicate. And that's on a good weather day.
