Day 3 at Jackson Hole

The adventures continue on to today with one more day up at Jackson hole. We arrive around 9:30am after getting my board left behind, and rounding up the troops. The reports read that the base was 38 degrees and the top 22 degrees with 42 mile an hour winds so it was a little difficult to decide on layering. No matter the case we got on the mountain ready to shred. with my knee hurting a bit we headed over to Apre Vous to start. the snow was a bit heavy and the runs were fairly choppy, but with a little searching it was possible to find some good stuff. After a couple of runs there on to the Gondola to check out the conditions over there. found a few decent spots, but still on the search. Took up the thunder lift, looking to traverse to some good stuff. On our way across we happen to spot a little lip. It was pretty funny to come across actually, the lip seemed to have been built that morning but no one had hit it. They had attempted to hide the jump with tree branches and such but it didnt work out so great, we spotted it pretty easily. We checked it out then headed back to the chair ready to hit it this time/ Got over there and had some issues figuring out who would ginnea it, then some random rider blasted in and got firsties, so we all maned up and hit it. There was a few wild style hits and a couple of good ones, I was pretty happy with my fs 3. We grabbed some lunch and headed back up, we took a few more runs, met up with the team and decided it was about time to peace.

 Back to the pad to dry up and rest up, tomorrow comes the backcounty.
