One Hour to Decide (Targhee or Jhole)
"I think people resist freedom because they're afraid of the unknown. But it's ironic....That unknown was once very well known. It's where our souls belong....The only solution is to confront them--confront yourself--with the greatest fear imaginable. Expose yourself to your deepest fear. After that, fear has no power, and fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free." -Jim Morrison

Tough decision...my choice is Targhee or the big pile of smelly dishes. Not much going on snowwise in Fox Creek, I can see house lights across the whole valley so no snow at 6000 ft. Heavy stratus deck about 2000 ft over the ground, so Targhee could be seeing some light snow up in the clouds(which is what the radar confirms).

I rode Targhee two winters ago in 8" of fresh, it was unbelievable. We rode JH the day before and it was rock solid, just f*cking nasty.
Targhee is reporting 3 feet of snow in the past week.
With that in mind, I'd head for Targhee and take my chances. You know JH will be decent tomorrow if there's a good dump in forecast tonight.Last edited by david z; 01-05-2010 at 08:53 AM. Reason: typo/formatting correction

flip a coin. Some will always say jhmr, some will always say 'ghee. It's like Sierra Nevada and Mirror Pond. Either way you're drinking some pretty good beer.
Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

Fixed it for you. With record holiday ticket sales, do you really think any of that is left after three days of hammering? We are locals, but thanks for the help anyhow and come on back and visit anytime. If ya thought that 8 inch blip of powder was "unbelievable", ya would of shit your pants last saturday.

misread it... my bad.
Yeah, after holiday that's all tracked out.
shit my pants indeed - we don't get snow like that in MI, and even though I get out west 1 or 2 times a year, we've had lousy weather more often than not... I'll take 8" of snow over hardpack, any day
