Would you mind telling me the exact brand and model of snowshoes you use? I need a pair for chamonix and like the look of yours. Thanks!

Looks like tahoe might be the place to be (colorado?) on this supposed el nino winter. Love the blog jeremy, received light 4 inches in the tetons last night, hopefully the early season ice layer isn’t what it was last year with exploded avalanche conditions! The traverse out of Gothic is pretty easy on a snowboard, finding gothic from the top can be tricky, as always in Jackson…If you dont know….DONT GO!!!

Michael,

Gothic is good to go. Landing can be flat. The traverse out is mellow by Jackson standards. If done right there is no hiking. I split board would suck on that traverse.

Pumped to see your getting after it so early. We got snow out in bozeman the other day, got some knee high powder. I saw you dropped gothic in jackson hole a few years ago, and i really wanna try it, except I here that the hike out is terrible on a snowboard. I can’t afford a split board, so I was wondering if you had any advice?

I agree with sam H. You should get Deeper out to bozeman, since i’ve gone to school here we have only had 1 snowboard premiere out here. it would be awesome.

Thanks.

Hey Jeremy,
Even though I’m a skier, I just wanted to say that you have inspired me to do what I do more than any pro skier has. You clearly have an upmost appreciation for the mountains, and I have a great respect for that especially since I’m also an East Coaster at heart. You see what you want to do and you go for it, and there isn’t much more that people can ask from someone who is as talented as you are. Thanks for everything.

Colin,

In the summer try and get into the mountains a bunch climbing, biking and hiking. Even so I get beat down early in the winter and have to hike and ride myself into shape. Check out the LAird Hamilton book for 20 minute work outs and other ways to get in shape when you do not have a lot of time.

Allgood,

I use a Panasonic point and shoot.

samh,

We will have a tour with Deeper. I hope to make it to Bozeman.

Hey Jeremy, how do you prep for the upcoming season? Not too many people can just head out and hike/ride like that on a drop of a hat (or a good early season storm in this case). I know you do this for a living, so I imagine not sitting at a desk all day helps quite a bit, but do you do anything specific to prep your legs over the summer/fall?
