When the snow Gods smile, they smile incessantly on Jackson Hole Ski Resort.

It’s getting creepy.

Last year Jackson Hole saw one of its highest snowfall totals ever–over 500 inches of fresh. This year they’re opening early with promising signs of powder and considerable coverage on the mountain. Just to put some things into perspective, the resort has already seen over 100″ of snowfall this season alone. That’s ONE THIRD of what a place like, say, Whitefish Ski Resort in Montana, sees in an entire year.
What is going on here?
Has Jackson Hole become the Shangri La of the United States? Will resorts around the country ever see snowfall or will Jackson Hole keep funneling all the fluffy stuff into its, well, hole?

Whet your whistle real quick on this vid.

This is November, folks.
