SNOTEL ground truth
NWS Forecast Accuracy
Accuracy grade pending, and it stays that way on purpose. We show the raw NWS forecast for Jackson Hole Mountain Resort and do not grade or correct it. Six winters of NWS-against-SNOTEL checking found forecast accuracy here turns on an unresolved snow-measurement question (settled snow depth vs. fresh snowfall), not a fixed per-mountain bias anyone can honestly correct. So we show the number NWS publishes and tell you that is what it is.

Local Knowledge
TGR Community IntelStorm Day Strategy
Sleeper days (lighter snow cycles) are more enjoyable than big dumps for experienced locals. On big dumps, avoid first-track race and arrive early for parking with extended timeline. Head to secondary terrain (Thunder woods, Gannett, Mushrooms, Grand Woods, Goldminers) to avoid crowds racing to primary lines. In deep cycles with 1-3 feet of leeward wind deposition, expert terrain from Far Drift/Ship's Prow through Moran Face/Saratoga offers untracked top-to-bottom options. Skiing early morning groomers with knee-to-waist powder is superior to bumped terrain racing.
Terrain Opening Patterns
Upper Mountain/High Elevation Terrain
Opens: Early season, weather dependent
Coverage up high is excellent even during dry spells. Thin skin conditions develop at lower elevations during warm periods.
Lower Elevation/Groomers
Opens: Variable, dependent on precipitation type
Rain in town during warm spells creates thin coverage. Locks up hard after temperature drops.
Powder Stashes
Out of Bounds (OB) Terrain
Adjacent to main terrain
OB laps available; blower conditions reported after atmospheric river storms
Sidecountry Terrain
Accessible from main mountain
Endless sidecountry pow available. Wind-manufactured pow is a JHMR specialty. Requires knowledge of lines and jumps.
