12 Glory Laps in 12 Hours

12 Glory Laps in 12 Hours
Last February 20th, I hiked and skied 12 laps on Mt. Glory. 19,638 feet climbed with skis on my back and 19,638 feet skied to raise money for Camp To Belong. It's snowing again and I'm ready for the 2nd edition! Click the logo for more info and ways to support camp!

Let thy skis be free to glide

The iconic and beloved hut at the top of Glory was dismantled this past fall. But not to be deterred, the glory riding crowd has already resurrected a new version for this winter.

If you need a ride and see this rig driving towards Teton Village, put a thumb out and chances are you'll be treated to a first-class shuttle to the Ranch Lot. Such a sweet ride!

After a pre-dawn Glory lap on Friday, I drove to the Stilson lot to park and wait for the START BUS.  Sure enough, here comes this guy in his newly converted transit van from New Hampshire offering a ride to anyone who wanted one. Second best part of my day!

Homemade campers have flatscreen tvs now.

Nuclear free snow, please.

A great line.

Bootin up Glory

The Wind River Mountain range 100 miles away is visible way out in the distance.
Not quite sure what's happening with our weather pattern, but I should not be out grilling in the dark wearing flip flops, no coat, and walking on grass on December 7th.
The secret line down Glory that hardly anyone knows about. Hasn't snowed in a week and there was one track through this tree alley.
