Despite the dismal forecast for this winter JH is still charging $1900+ for a seasons pass. Rumble and Corbets are not really comparable. Rumble is a great ski trail, Corbets is gravity then survival, it's over in a matter of seconds. :wink: Sugarbush is expecting a strong season, JH is expecting long lines at the unemployment office. A $200,000 home/condo in the MRV costs $1.4m in JH tho the prices are slowly coming down.

Jackson Hole doesn't have the Slidebrook or the Egans..they do have a Tram and the Air Force..$1900 for a season pass at Jackson Hole is worth it..you break even in 20-something days..

People would probably be shocked at the number of longtime locals who JUST ski Teton Pass. Here is a live cam of the top of the pass parking lot...I check it everyday as it gives me an easy way to really see how much snow is at the resort. The resort cams are too wide angle to determine that for me.

One day I want to live in Jackson WY..just during ski season..I know the Motel 6 rents rooms for like $150 a week..
