Basically looking for someone with Jackson Hole experience that wants to earn some cash and ski with me

Really solid skier but going with my Dad who can't keep up. Would love to ski with someone who knows a thing or two about Jackson since I haven't been there before and it seems like there's some unexpected cliffs all over.

serious inquiries only; willing to negotiate

TBH, if you're staying in-bounds you don't really need a guide for safety reasons. Just follow the tracks and 9/10 times you'll be OK. Most of the cliffs in-bounds are marked.

That being said, finding a local to show you some sweet in-bound gems isn't a bad idea.

But if you are planning on going through the gates, don't go alone, don't go without avalanche gear, and don't go without the knowledge of the conditions and how to use it.

JH is amazing, some of my best days ever took place there. It's really one of a kind.

What exactly are you looking for? Trying to go OB or strictly inbounds? What do you like to ski? I'd be down, i live in the village and ski here everyday. If you've never skiied true avalanche terrain I dont think I'd be comfortable going OB. I do have a spare set of avy gear and radios, but if you don't know how to use them you cant borrow them. Actual guides are $800 a day here, but if youre competent and fun to ski with id do it for free.
