chances are you will have a few days without fresh snow. you just have to decide if you want to spend those days shredding mogs on fatties or not

Jackson/Tahoe/Utah don't have shit for snow... normally I'd say absolutely not, but this year I'd send em. Will give you something to do.

i would just go with the billy goats, you should be able to find decent pow or relatively fresh snow pretty much everyday of your trip even if it just snows a little, if theres no extra charge i would bring them but otherwise i would just think they are a hassle

youll be over the 50 lb weight limit for large luggage for sure... dont waist your time with skinny park skis... any good mid/fat ski will handle groomers just fine

to the 50lb comment, i fit k2 seths and disorderlies with px14s/pivots on them in a single pair ski bag, with clothing in the bag, and still came in under 50lbs. ON3P stuff tends to be pretty light, so it's not unreasonable to get two pairs of skis in one bag under 50lbs.

How the heck does 2 pairs of skis weigh over 50 lbs. There is no way. That would have to be 25 per pair.

Do you have lead in your bindings or something?

Just checked the forecast, looking at about a foot of snow at JH over the next couple days. So jealous! I'll be there in a few months!
