I hiked up to 14,000 feet in one of Keystones back bowls last year, that's been my most intense snowboarding experience. So I think I'm well equipped for whatever Jackson Hole has to offer! Everything I hear about it is amazing

*edit: Thought I'd mention that my avatar is at 14,000 in Keystone
1. Keystone tops at at 12,408. All 14'ers in Colorado are on public lands except for one that is privately owned. No ski area has a Colorado 14'er within it's boundaries.

2. Keystone's terrain is in no way the same as what Jackson offers.

This is inbounds at Jackson. The fall and you die comment was not a joke.

^^^That is a beginner hard man's run.
Comparing Keystone to Jackson is not a comparison is all. Not even in the same ballpark...

It's funny when you talk to locals who've done Corbets a hundred times and say, "But there is some real scary stuff I can show you." No thanks...

Skiers right of the main Coulior (Corbets) before the hanging snowfield is S&S Coulior. I've looked in twice and said, "No Way" It's the slanted one with a mandatory drop in of 15'-30'

Unhappy Bummed

Well, definitely not going to the Hole any more.
The other guys are still making the trip, they're just doing it in two cars, and the trip was already strappin me for cash. I can't handle two vehicles worth of gas. Pretty frikkin bummed out about it though. But on the bright side, now I'll get to ride in the jib fest at my local hill and be around for all the other 'spring fling' stuff they do.
