Daily Trail Report for 2.3.26.

“Mountains should be climbed with as little effort as possible and without desire. The reality of your own nature should determine the speed. If you become restless, speed up. If you become winded, slow down. You climb the mountain in an equilibrium between rest and exhaustion. Then, when you’re no longer thinking ahead, each footstep isn’t a means to an end but a unique event in itself.” -Robert Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

A Nod to the Grooming in Grand Teton National Park

Grand Teton National Park (GTNP) is a treasure all year round, but in winter it is particularly magical. The excellent grooming on the inner park road allows families and friends to enjoy the miles between Taggart/Cottonwood trailhead and Signal Mtn trailhead, with visits to Lucas Fabian CabinsJenny Lake, or skiing the full 14.4 miles one way!


Thanks to JH Nordic Alliance partners GTNP and GTNP Foundation for the excellent grooming, it brings enjoyment of classic and skate cross country skiing to so many! If you appreciate the grooming please consider leaving a donation.

The skate ski conditions have been phenomenal during this high pressure.
Skier tracked trails are a joy as well in GTNP
