Last month I learned to #backcountryski on a #SkiIdaho #presstour I organized. We spent day two exploring the Island of Misfit Toys terrain adjacent to #SoldierMountain and found a lovely patch of #pow to farm. #idaho #southernidaho #idapow #ski #skiing #liftservedbackcountry #sawtoothnationalforest

Scary stuff. If the Idaho Supreme Court doesn't reconsider its December 2023 ruling, this will kill Idaho's small ski areas and dramatically raise prices at the remaining ones. Many thanks to Betsy Russell for the amazing reporting (as always).

Last month I learned to #backcountryski on a #SkiIdaho #presstour I organized. We spent day one at #SoldierMountain getting familiar with our gear and skinning up the mountain before riding a beautiful ridge in the Bridge Creek area. #idaho #southernidaho #idapow #ski #skiing #liftservedbackcountry
