Update
Today is a great day. The snow is deep and the weather is great. We are expecting temperatures to drop this afternoon and by tonight be in the single digits. We are forecasted for a little snow every night for the next week. We will now wait for our next big storm. The groomers seemed to have disappeared off the face of the earth or at least of the trail. However, with all of the snow, the groomers are just behind. We are starting to see some improvements but should be back to excellent by Monday.
The forecast is the following:
This Afternoon: A 40 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 15. Wind chill values as low as -10. North northwest wind around 15 mph. Total daytime snow accumulation of around an inch possible.
Tonight: A 20 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 5. Wind chill values as low as -10. West wind between 13 and 18 mph.
Saturday: A 20 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 17. Wind chill values as low as -10. Breezy, with a west wind between 17 and 21 mph.
Saturday Night: A 40 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 11. Wind chill values as low as -10. Breezy, with a west wind between 22 and 24 mph.
Sunday: A 40 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 20. Breezy, with a west wind between 18 and 21 mph.
Sunday Night: A 40 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy and breezy, with a low around 10.
Monday: A 40 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 18.

The general avalanche hazard is CONSIDERABLE. Backcountry riders and skiers have the potential to trigger new soft surface slabs to one foot in depth as well as deep hard slabs involving weak snow at the base of the snow pack.

I just got back from 3 days of riding Togwotee and staying at Turpin Meadow Ranch. Our group had an excellent time and I had the time of my life. I would just like to again thank Dennis for having us. The cabin we stayed in was nice and clean, the staff was super nice and friendly, the places we stopped for lunch had great food and our snowmobile guide Troy got us into some awesome areas of untouched snow. If you are planning a trip to Togwotee or the Jackson area I would highly recommend staying at Turpin Meadow Ranch, because again everything went super smooth and the Ranch was top notch.
Here are some pics from our last day there.
Our guide Troy had to get in the action as well and ended up with one heck of a stuck.
Again thanks for the great time.

The general avalanche hazard is CONSIDERABLE. Yesterday a deep hard slab was triggered on approach by a skier on a steep east facing aspect of Angle Mountain. This dangerous slab avalanche failed on a layer of weak faceted snow and a November rain crust. Other dangerous deep hard slab avalanches have recently released naturally on a variety of aspects. Conservative decisions and excellent terrain evaluation skills are essential for safe travel in avalanche terrain.

Update
Good morning to all. We received another 1 to 3 inches over night. We are now moving into a pattern of snow every night. Tonight we are forecasted to receive another 4 to 6 and the same on Monday night. The 10 day forecast shows show until Thursday then it sunny and cold thru Sunday. So the weekend maybe some of the best riding of the year so far. Due to the weather and the flat light, it is a little difficult to get to some the higher elevations. So the next weekend is looking awesome. I do have a few cabins left for next weekend so give me a call.
The forecast:
Today: Snow, mainly before 11am. High near 22. Wind chill values as low as -5. West wind between 13 and 16 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total daytime snow accumulation of 1 to 3 inches possible.
Tonight: Snow likely. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 13. Wind chill values as low as -5. Breezy, with a west wind between 20 and 23 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New snow accumulation of 2 to 4 inches possible.
Monday: A 40 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 24. Wind chill values as low as -5. Breezy, with a west northwest wind between 17 and 23 mph. New snow accumulation of less than one inch possible.
Monday Night: A 40 percent chance of snow, mainly before 11pm. Partly cloudy, with a low around 8. Wind chill values as low as -10. Breezy, with a west northwest wind between 17 and 21 mph.
Tuesday: A 20 percent chance of snow. Partly cloudy, with a high near 25. Blustery, with a west northwest wind between 18 and 20 mph, with gusts as high as 28 mph.
Tuesday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around 8.

The general avalanche hazard is CONSIDERABLE. On Friday a deep (five to six foot crown) hard slab was triggered on approach by a skier on a steep east facing aspect of Angle Mountain. This dangerous slab avalanche failed on a layer of weak faceted snow and a November rain crust. Similar events could be triggered today by humans on a variety of aspects on steep avalanche prone slopes.

Outstanding Staff
We just returned from a week at Turpin Meadow Ranch. The riding was great with powder over the hood. The staff at Turpin is absolutely top notch. Dennis and the gang bend over backwards to make sure everyone's stay is enjoyable. The cabins are kept very clean. All of the guides, waitresses and other help are just genuinely good people. It is a very relaxing atmosphere. When we left Turpin, it felt like we were leaving family behind. I would highly recommend Turpin to anyone looking to ride the Togwotee area. Thanks for a great week.

The general avalanche hazard is CONSIDERABLE. Deep, hard slabs (three to six foot crowns)continue to be triggered on a variety of aspects on Angle Mountain. These dangerous slab avalanches are failing on a layer of weak faceted snow and a November rain crust. Similar events could be triggered today by riders or skiers on similar steep, avalanche prone slopes. Conservative decisions and excellent terrain evaluation skills are essential for safe travel in avalanche terrain.

Park on the top on the North side of the road. I can't remember the name of the lot. Make your own trail! It's an awesome area.
I'm not trying to be a smart a$$ here either. I have rode this area many times and will be there again in 2 weeks.
Update
Today is a great day to be on a sled. For those that have never visited Togwotee Pass Area. We have 600 miles of trail but more acres of off trail than one can discover in a lifetime. If this is your first visit, I would recommend a guide for at least your first day.
The forecast is for sunny but cold days ahead. We are waiting for our next storms although the riding is exceptional.

The general avalanche hazard remains CONSIDERABLE. Instabilities associated with deeply buried faceted snow and hard crusts formed in November persist on a variety of aspects. Dangerous hard slabs up to six feet in depth are still very sensitive to human triggers on some steep slopes. Today's sunshine and warm temperatures will increase the potential for humans to trigger one of these deep dangerous hard slabs in steep avalanche prone terrain. Conservative decisions regarding terrain selection are recommended.

The general avalanche hazard is MODERATE. Areas of deep slab instability persist on some steep slopes. Dangerous hard slabs up to five feet in depth could be triggered by humans who venture into steep avalanche prone terrain. The potential for these deep slabs to be triggered by the weight of a person will increase as the day warms. These deep slabs could be crossed by skiers or snowmobiles multiple times before a weak spot is encountered. These dangerous slabs present the greatest hazard to high marking snowmobilers and skiers who venture into steep bowls, cirques, couloirs and cliff areas. Clear skies and good visibility generally encourage backcountry users to take greater risks. Conservative decisions regarding terrain selection are warranted.

The general avalanche hazard is MODERATE. Areas of deep slab instability persist on some steep slopes. Dangerous hard slabs up to five feet in depth could be triggered by humans who venture into steep avalanche prone terrain. The potential for these deep slabs to be triggered by the weight of a person will increase as the day warms. These deep slabs could be crossed by skiers or snowmobiles multiple times before a weak spot is encountered. These dangerous slabs present the greatest hazard to high marking snowmobilers and skiers who venture into steep bowls, cirques, couloirs and cliff areas. Clear skies and good visibility generally encourage backcountry users to take greater risks. Conservative decisions regarding terrain selection are warranted.
