    Winter 18/19



    Rather late to start, ended much too soon, with several extended droughts in between and tragically all through March. Saw every 2019 supermoon, which would ordinarily be no small feat considering their unusual abundance this year, and well, the fact that they occurred during the winter months. You know, clouds, rain, snow...or the lack thereof. The local ski season aside (photos), I did finally manage to tour around Teton Pass, ride "The Village" and explore Jackson Hole Valley in winter for the first time this year. Damn beautiful country out there, especially from 30,000 feet, but pity that mother nature wasn't forthcoming with any fresh during our visit there either. What will be will be.
