Yo, I think I am going to JAckson the first few days of Feb... What will the snow be like there at that time.... How big will Corbets Coulair be? Where is the best place to ski there? And how far is Grand Targhee away from the Ski area and what is that place like? Do either place have a park

I actually just got back from jackson hole yesterday, best ski trip ever. so much to say, their terrain park was OK but not many go for the park. great powder even after a week of no snow. best place to stay depends what you are looking for, inexpensive or not. definatly stay in teton village though, bus ride from the town of jackson is 30 mins to the resort, and if you want to be there early you'll have to wake up at 6:30 if your in jackson. snow conditions will be great, it was awesome at christmas, so by febuary it will be amazing. message me if you want details on accomadation. have fun

yeah, I'm going to be out in Jackson in Feb as well. Last year at Christmas time the snow was not too hot. This year by the end of December they had 174 inches. Corbets should have quite the couloir by the time you get out there. if you want to ski the park or moguls, Jackson is not the place to be. For steeps, powder, cliffs, and open backcountry, there is no place better in north america. Get some avalanche gear if you plan on skiing any backcountry, and go with a guide or locals who know what they are doing. Last year my buddy who lives out in Jackson, lost 2 friends in avalanches. have a blast, but be careful
