Another Warm Week At Colter

For all of you that think 40 is cold, burrrrrr,  we actually hit minus 30.   

A Texan Learns to SKI

Logan Steffans, a real TEXAN disproved the theory that Texans can't ski,  he is either really brave or just plain foolish, or lucky or ......!   For all you newbees to Colter, Logan was my AGM at Colter last year and is now the Rooms Division Manager at Jackson Lake Lodge.   I wanted to make sure he got his monies worth so took him to the top of the Gondola,  he made it to the bottom with only one crash!


It was another beautiful day in Jackson Hole, this pic is looking from the Gondola down the valley to Jackson.

The old guy laughing at Logan!
