After a brisk hike up a wooded shoulder, we emerge on a promontory in the Four Pines area, two canyons over from the resort. The huge, empty swaths of mountain and canyon are why we’re in this course: I could ski up here every day for a year and not cross my own tracks once.
A three day camp in Jackson Hole Wyoming teaching the safety aspects of backcountry skiing. Expensive ($545), but skiing at the resort costs $70 a day just for tickets… God I wanna go just be a ski bum.
