Snow levels down to 11,000' from recent storms - 9.23.22
Fall officially started yesterday at around 7:00pm and the Teton Range is looking the part! Another round of significant precipitation during the past two days of stormy weather soaked the valley and blanketed the high peaks in snow. Snow levels are currently at about 11,000'.
We have had one major rescue and a near miss in the past two days because people were not prepared with the proper equipment, knowledge of the terrain, or plan for dealing with adverse conditions. Don't be caught off guard by these conditions and please heed the advice on the previous post! Despite the coming high pressure and lack of visible snow from the valley floor as it warms slightly, conditions on north and west aspects, especially, will still remain snowy and icy in the higher elevations above 10,000.' Be prepared and enjoy the season!
