The Mountains Less Traveled: Teton Powder Keg

You may remember the trip reports that James posted in the forum about his vacation in Wyoming last month. In his new “Mountains Less Traveled” feature, he writes about how his first cat-skiing experience — seven hours of untracked powder — had a big impact on him.

Just looking at his pictures had a big impact on me, but he also brings up some interesting points about our habit of putting off things that we’ve always wanted to do.

The Mountains Less Traveled: Snow King, WY

This week, Jamesdeluxe is on his first destination trip of the 2010-11 season, visiting one of his favorite western ski towns: Jackson, WY.

The big show, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, is about 20 minutes away, but only a few blocks from the village square is a classic local hill that fits right into our Mountains Less Traveled series: Snow King.

The Mountains Less Traveled: Burke Mtn, VT

As we get ready to kick off the 2010-11 season, Jamesdeluxe takes us to Vermont’s gorgeous Northeast Kingdom for yet another ski area that I’ve read about for years, but never had the chance to visit: Burke Mountain.

Often described as “criminally underrated,” Burke looks like a perfect stop on the way north to the Eastern Townships or Jay Peak.
