Grand Targhee is in the foreground with (from left to right) Mt. Owen, the Grand Teton and Middle Teton in the background.
This now represents our 3rd straight year heading out to The Ghee for our end of season ski testing trip. Many people have asked why we have chosen this resort as our base.
Here is a "Top 10 list" of reasons why:
#10 Teton Thai restaurant in Driggs, ID
#9 Never crowded. Located on the quiet western side of the Teton range a.k.a. "Wydaho".
#8 Over 2,000 lift serviced acres providing a wide variety of skiing.
#7 Grand Teton Brewing in Victor ID.
#6 Mary's Nipple - just a short in-bound hike affords fresh tracks consistently.
#5 Great lifties and personalities the likes of Leon Weston a.k.a. "Slim", Carol Geiger & Ignacio Orduno a.k.a. "Nacho".
#4 One of SKI Magazine's "Top 10 ski area's you have never skied".
#3 The Trap Bar...
#2 Incredibly reasonable. You typically can stay and ski for less money than lift tickets alone at most major resorts.
#1 Reliable snow. The Ghee averages over 500+" of snow per year with less than a 5% water content a.k.a. "blower". It has delivered the goods the past 2 years for our crew and it looks like it's going to be a three-peat this year.
