Over 400” of snow ❄️ so far this season with over 4 feet of that coming in the last week! @robkingwill & @skifreejh indulge on the Headwall during a bluebird powder day. Link in bio to read more about this season so far. 🎥 @gopro #HeroMAX #jacksonhole #jhdreaming A post shared by Jackson Hole Mountain Resort (@jacksonhole) on Feb 17, 2020 at 2:57pm PST
“Jackson Hole plunged back into the powder vortex, receiving 53 inches in the last seven days and 38 inches in the last three,” stated Jackson Hole on Monday. “Torrents of majestic Teton cold smoke poured from swirling skies, creating blank canvases seemingly every run. Although tamer than January, February has certainly delivered a constant stream of stoke thus far. We’ve eclipsed 400 inches on the season thanks to this cycle, and with about two months left, we’re confident we’ll leave our season average behind in a whirlwind of frosty flakes.” According to On the Snow, the last seven-day snow totals in the U.S. have Jackson Hole sitting at the top with 48 inches. Stevens Pass (Wash.) is second with 39 inches, followed by Wyoming’s Grand Targhee Resort (37 inches), Washington’s Alpental (34 inches) and Colorado’s Winter Park Resort (30 inches) rounding out the top five resorts across the country.

While now is certainly prime time to get in some resort laps, safety reigns supreme. Check avalanche conditions in the area you plan to ski or ride. There’s still plenty of snow out there to enjoy.
