#foreverwest @lukemphoto ・・・ Early season snow falls in the #bridgertetonnationalforest in NW #Wyoming. The #jacksonhole area is turning into a #winterwonderland.

#Yellowstone #ynp #jacksonhole #winterwonderland #Repost @usinterior ・・・ This fox is diving for its dinner. Tracking mice under the snow, the #fox will leap up and land on its prey, taking it by surprise. It’s an effective, and entertaining, performance. Just one of the many wonders @YellowstoneNPS in #Wyoming. Photo by National Park Service.

The weekend is for bison spotting! #Repost @sweetcheeksmeats ・・・ What a Grand time we had today! #itswhatwedohere #bison #tatonka #wildwest #jacksonhole #jhdreaming

Is there anything better than a powder day in Jackson Hole? Hint: the answer is no. 📷: @tatatorance #jacksonhole #jhdreaming #powderday #ski #winterwonderland

The Elk Refuge & Sleeping Indian are looking particularly spectacular today. #jacksonhole #jhdreaming #sunnydays #wildwest #getoutside

A few words on the Snow at Snow King Resort

Snow King has no detail snow data, but we accept the published average of 150 inches snowfall, due to its location in the town of Jackson leeward of the much higher Tetons. Snow King is best known for race training.

Accumulation and Preservation

Snow King’s early season openings are above average due to extensive snowmaking. Exposure is north, so the fairly steep manmade snow can be firm. Snow King like many resorts has its most reliable snow conditions from mid-January to mid-March.
