Skiing Grand Targhee (again)

This weekend I had the privilege of skiing Grand Targhee again, but the experience was much different. Last weekend there wasn't a cloud in the sky. This weekend, you couldn't see more then 100 yards down the mountain because it was snowing so hard and we we're skiing in the world's best powder. OK, maybe that's an exaggeration, but it's certainly the most powder I've skied in! The mountain received 7" on Friday and 8 more on Saturday. Needless to say, there were no groomed trails and you could make first tracks anywhere, all day long. Just be careful you don't get stuck on a flat traverse or you'll lose your skies, boots and poles in the deep powdery pillow of snow! Even falling/tumbling/somersaulting/etc was fun and painless! No pictures from the mountain this weekend, but below is proof we all survived (without any major mishaps).
4 co-workers just crazy enough to let me adventure with them - Scottlan, Eric, Jaime and Brandon
