For the 2023 ski season, we collaborated with Stacey Barker of Barking Goat Studios on a custom JH Nordic NoSo patch.

“A lot of my stuff is animal based. I like doing this thing where I draw an animal doing a human activity.” 🐻🦌🦆

It’s important to stay informed on snow conditio

It’s important to stay informed on snow conditions so as not to miss or ruin the snow for others. It is already a narrow window that is ‘crust cursing season.’ What downhill skiers might refer to as ‘corn skiing’, the nordic community has endearingly called crust cruising – either way it’s beloved by both like-minded communities.
See bio link to read more about what to prepare for when crust cruising.

🐻 Male grizzly bears are emerging..
‼️ Friendly reminder: Nordic skiers, fat bikers, snowshoers, winter trail users to be Bear Aware, carry bear spray, make noise, travel in a small group vs alone, be alert.

Early in the evening on March 22, the first grizzly bear of 2023 was observed in Grand Teton National Park. As bears become active this spring, Bear Wise Jackson Hole reminds residents and visitors to secure attractants of any kind and be bear aware.

Adult male grizzly bears typically emerge from hibernation in March, while females with young typically appear between April and early May. The first grizzly bear sighting of 2022 in the Jackson Hole area occurred on March 13 in Grand Teton National Park. When bears emerge from their dens, they search for any available foods and often scavenge animals that died during the winter.

It was like cross country skiing in December at Trail Creek today! Snow gently falling over groomed trails, snow covered conifers and aspens, perfect silence of snowy landscapes. One exception: our favorite landmark, Sam the Truck was almost submerged in snow! A rare but happy sighting! #jhnordic #jacksonhole #wintertrails #xcskiing

The warming temperatures are making that snow stick to the bottom of your Nordic skis. Be sure to pack a scrapper and wax to help remove that snow on the bottoms of your skis and apply that wax right on the trail. This application sure makes gliding on the crust way more enjoyable. Here’s to 🤘🏽 crust-cruising!

‼️❄️ A Bridger-Teton Ambassador reported a couple of snow slides about a mile up the Game Creek Trail, from last Friday. There has also been information of potential mountain lion 🦁 activity in the same area. We have been getting reports of lion activity for the last couple of months in the same general area. Just a good idea for skiers and those with dogs to be very aware of their surroundings while up on the Game Creek Trail.
