WILSON. Wyo. — It may be May 11 but there is still plenty of snow blanketing the Teton Range.

For those still up for it, conditions are variable but there are still powder pockets to be had on north-facing aspects.

Temperatures in the Jackson Hole valley have warmed to the mid-50s today. More snow is possible tomorrow, with a more likely storm expected on Friday. The full weather report for this week is available here.

Bridger-Teton Avalanche Center (BTAC) is no longer producing a daily avalanche forecast but is sharing a 24-data summary for forecasting purposes. BTAC warns that”decisions regarding travel in avalanche terrain should be based on field observations, knowledge and experience.”


We know Joey Sackett isn’t the only one out riding this spring. Send your photos to editor@buckrail.com to be featured in a future “SNAPPED” highlighting spring skiing/riding in the Tetons.
