That's Why We Come Up Here...

NATURE! (And to glissade) Even though tons of snow still lingers in the Tetons (6' at Surprise Lake for you kids that know where that is) we have been getting out and enjoying the mountains.

The snow makes the descent much more enjoyable. This glissade was probably only several hundred feet, but we did one later that was close to 1,000 feet. Outstanding!

View from the South Teton into Avalanche Canyon and Snowdrift Lake. TONS of snow!!
