Randosteve skis a Y-Couloir in the Winds. After a cold night in the Megamid, Mike and I finally forced ourselves out around 7:30. We didn’t feel the suns rays until almost 9, due to our proximity behind some large cliffs and it made putting our frozen boots back on that much harder. The morning coffee […]
At the shop, we pretty much get inundated with questions all day. Some, like…Where are the bathrooms?…Can I get a fishing license?…and Where do I find the float trips?, are more reasonable than others, but occasionally we get ones that just blow you away and it is all you can do to keep from laughing. […]
In June of 2006, Reed Finlay and I skied the East Ridge of the Dike Pinnacle on the Middle Teton and then continued on to ski Koch’s Couloir down to the moraine. Here’s the trip report for the archives. I remember this descent vividly because it stands out a one of my favorite late season […]
One of the cool things about having this blog is all the interesting people it has allowed me to meet so far. I often get emails, like daily, from total strangers interested in finding out more about Teton ski conditions and specific route beta.

It has been a long weekend of working and partying, but unfortunately not much skiing. I’m working today but doing intervals on Snow King this morning. I won’t really be rando racing until February…so I still have some time to whip myself back into shape. I have the rest of the week off from work, […]
Note: I am off work today and I think I am heading up to ski Wimpy’s. It looks like we only got a trace of new snow last night, but it is supposed to snow all day. Hopefully the wind will help and fill in the tracks before we get to the top. This TR […]
Note: Good Morning! Reading -16F at the airport this morning…brrrrr! I’m skiing The Sliver on Nez Perce today with Dustin Lemke. This is a TR from a great trip skiing the main South Couloir of Teewinot on December 17, 2004. Having found good coverage in the mountains lately, I figured a larger objective, the South […]
