Highway 20 Backcountry Conditions Report 12/26

Thanks Jeff for the great pictures and doing a service to the community by providing this information. It is sometimes annoying to see the pics when the conditions are a bit warm over here, but overall it is good to know what it is like on the dry side. I hope you will keep posting a consistent link as you have been doing.

great, thanks for the info!

Any recent updates? I saw the report on the NCMG site (thanks for that), but am hoping for something more recent before making the drive over. Probably will go regardless, but would be great to get a general sense if/where there's good skiing to be found (e.g., Cutthroat, Willow, N facing stuff around the hairpin, around Hart's Pass, etc.). Thanks in advance!

I have been in Jackson Hole working for the last two weeks so I don't have any first hand information. It sounds like the wind has worked the upper elevations, but there is still good skiing in the trees. Sorry I don't have any more info than that. My guess is your best bet would be wind protected north facing terrain. Good luck.
