Dear Friends it is with the utmost sadness that I write that the world ski community has lost one of its legends and icons Shane McConkey today. Shane was ski - basing in the Dolomite region of Italy when he had an equipment failure that caused him to get spun into the wrong position. It is said that one of his skis did not release properly.
Shane McConkey is considered one of the true pioneers of the big mountain “free skiing” movement. He started the International Free Skiers Association. He has been instrumental in the developement of the sport of “ski - basing”
Most importantly he was wonderful person with an outrageous sense of humor. He was also an incredible friend. Rest in Peace.
Today, In a move that puts his conservation record on par with some of the country’s greenest leaders, President Bush today created three marine national monuments that will protect 195,280 square miles of vulnerable island and ocean ecosystems in the Pacific, as reported in the Washington Post. The announcement is in sharp contrast with Bush’s record on other environmental issues such as climate change and drilling. The designation will drastically cut oil and gas exploration in the areas, as well as commercial fishing. Permits will be required for recreational fishing. Bush also set aside more than 138,000 square miles of marine reserve in 2006, which means that by the end of his term he will have conserved more ocean than anyone in history.
President George W. Bush is stepping up on Tuesday at a White House ceremony to designate three Pacific island areas as national monuments to protect them from energy exploratation and extraction, commercial fishing, and commercial uses. It will be the largest marine conservation effort in history.The marine areas — totaling 195,280 square miles are:
The northern Pacific, waters at the northern end of the Northern Mariana Islands, including the Mariana Trench, the deepest spot on earth at 36,000 feet below the sea.
In American Samoa, the Rose Atoll — the world’s smallest coral atoll and one of the most remote.
The central Pacific, coral reefs, pinnacles, sea mounts, islands and surrounding waters of Johnston Atoll, Howland, Baker and Jarvis Islands, Kingman Reef, Palmyra Atoll and Wake Island. These areas harbor some of the most pristine coral reefs in the world.
The protected areas will extend 50 nautical miles off the coral reefs and atolls at the three monuments, which will be officially called the Marianas Marine National Monument, Rose Atoll Marine National Monument, and the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument. The Marianas will get a visitors center, an enforcement boat, co-management, an advisory council to the monument, and provide federal jobs. Each location harbors unique species and some of the rarest geological formations on Earth — from the world’s largest land crab to a bird that incubates its eggs in the heat of underwater volcanoes. The Marianas monument is especially significant given the scientific value of the trench and underwater volcanoes that form part of the Pacific Rim’s “Ring of Fire.” Advocacy groups were pushing for 200 nautical miles, the full extent of the U.S. exclusive economic zone.
All will be protected as national monuments — the same status afforded to statues and cultural sites — under the 1906 Antiquities Act. The law allows the government to immediately phase out commercial fishing and other extractive uses. However, recreational fishing, tourism and scientific research could still occur inside the three areas. Commercial fishing will reportedly be allowed in the waters over the Mariana Trench. The monument will only protect the rim of the canyon and its depths. The canyon is deeper than Mt. Everest is tall and five times the size of the Grand Canyon. The Obama administration will have to decide how the areas will be managed, and make sure the prohibitions are enforced.
Jackson Hole is under another avalanche warning. Here it is.
AN AVALANCHE WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED BY THE BRIDGER-TETON NATIONAL FOREST FOR THE MOUNTAINOUS AREAS OF WESTERN WYOMING INCLUDING JACKSON HOLE AND STAR VALLEY………… SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT provided by the Teton County Sheriff’s Department During these times of significant avalanche danger, the Sheriff’s Office and Search and rescue would like to remind you that backcountry rescues may be significantly delayed or not possible………… What does this mean to you?……… 1. A simple broken leg on Teton Pass could mean hours of delay until Search and Rescue can access you with reasonable safety………… 2. If you are caught in an avalanche in the backcountry of Teton County, a recovery may not occur until conditions warrant…………. At the mid and upper elevation dense new surface slabs lie upon dangerous deep hard slabs. In the past 24 hours about a foot of new snow with about an inch of new moisture and strong winds have added more load to a snowpack with persistent deep instabilities. Warming temperatures will increase the sensitivity of these slabs to failure. Large destructive hard slabs up to six feet in depth and dangerous dense surface slabs up to two feet in depth could release naturally or be human triggered today. Full track events are possible. At the lower elevations above freezing temperatures and rain are likely to cause roof slides and initiate natural avalanche activity on a variety of slopes, banks and roadcuts. TRAVEL IN AVALANCHE TERRAIN IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
Jackson Hole is not the only place with avalanche problems this year.
Our problems are mainly from a rain crust that we got in early November. I have attached an AP article that was just posted .
Fall weather set stage for deadly avalanche season
By MIKE STARK – 16 hours ago
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The stage was set for avalanches that have killed 19 people in western North America in two weeks by fall weather that created slick, unstable, icy slabs on mountains across the region, avalanche experts say.
Snow that fell in October and November provided an unstable base for heavy snows that fell across the West in December. Occasional rain and changing weather conditions provided additional layers that have made it easier for huge walls of snow to cleave off and plummet down the mountain.
“There’s something very tricky and very weird about the snow conditions this year that obviously caught some of the best snow-safety teams in the U.S. off guard,” Doug Abromeit, director of the U.S. Forest Service’s National Avalanche Center in Ketchum, Idaho, said Wednesday.
All 19 have died since Dec. 14. The worst was Sunday when 11 snowmobilers were swept away in back-to-back avalanches in British Columbia’s backcountry. Eight were killed.
In Utah, three snowmobilers and a skier have been killed. Colorado has also had four deaths: a skier, a snowboarder and two on snowmobiles. Others have died in Wyoming, Washington state and California.
Dozens of other people have had close calls — 28 in Colorado alone.
On average about 25 people in the U.S. die in avalanches each winter, according to the Colorado Avalanche Information Center in Boulder.
Some of the slides were large — one near Logan, Utah, that killed two snowmobilers was estimated to be 2,000 feet wide — but many weren’t.
“It’s more the frequency that’s unusual as opposed to the size,” said John Snook, an avalanche forecaster with the Colorado center.
Avalanche experts have been flummoxed at times by what they’ve seen this winter and have issued warning after warning about the dangers of venturing onto steep, snow-covered mountainsides.
The snow that fell in October and November changed as temperatures fluctuated, switching from a cohesive layer to one that is more crystallized and weak. Rain fell in some parts of high-elevation Utah on Thanksgiving, adding another slippery coat. And in December, huge snow dumps — 300 percent of average in some parts of Colorado — added heavy loads to those unstable underlying layers.
Conditions are dangerous but it’s also difficult to predict exactly when and where avalanches will occur.
“Pretty much all of the avalanche professionals I’ve talked to have said, ‘Man, I don’t know if I’ve seen this before,’” said Bruce Tremper, director of the Utah Avalanche Center.
Danger remains high or extreme in parts of many mountainous areas throughout the West.
Extreme conditions are expected in the Cascade Range from Washington state’s Mount Rainier to central Oregon because of weak snow, high winds and new snow on the way.
Avalanche experts have been urging people to steer clear of dangerous areas. Those who do go into the backcountry should consult with avalanche centers first and be prepared with proper avalanche equipment, including beacons and shovels.
No one is sure how long the danger will last. The slick slab from the fall snowstorms may or may not stick around until spring.
“It all depends on what the weather does,” Abromeit said.
Jackson Hole Avalanche hits restaurant the top of the gondola. The avalanche which released from the headwall at approximately 9:15 am and hit Coulior restaurant. Apparently there were only workers and patrollers in the area at the time. No confirmed injuries or fatalities. It was also reported that Laramie bowl, Cheyenne Bowl, and the headwall all had major avalanches this morning. I will update the blog as information is available.
It is also reported that the Coulior restaurant received extensive damage and is possibly closed for the season. The avalanche was of large scale. There are no reports of the Bridger gondola receiving any avalanche damage.
The ski patrolmen Mike Werner was hit by a picnic table as it went by. No indication to his injuries. The avalanche was thought to have released naturally, though the patrol had done control work on the headwall prior to the avalanche occurring.
The avalanche that killed a Jackson hole resident, Dave Nodine, within the boundaries of Jackson Hole Mountain resort mid-day Saturday, December 27th is a sad reminder to all skiers that our snow pack is unfortunately unstable. Though the details have been scattered and inconsistent from multiple sources it is certain that the snow pack in the Bridger Tetons is scary this year. Jackson Hole mountain resort has now joined the ranks of ski areas with inbounds fatalities in December of 2008 and I would not expect these to be the last avalanche events of the 2008-2009 ski season. I am not going to comment on the incedent details as I do not know exactly what happened. What I do want to get out there is the reason it happened and why everybody needs to take additional precautions while skiing in avalanche terrain this year.
The summary:
: North - North East facing, approximate elevation 8600 feet. Slab crown of 4-6 feet of new snow deposited from the storms that started December 19th and continued through Christmas eve. Fracture went down to the November 9th rain ice layer that has persisted through the fall due to freezing temperatures at higher elevations (above 7700ft on north facing and higher elevations on south facing aspects) The general area was controlled by Jackson Hole ski patrol using explosives earlier in the day. The deposition was said to be up to 10 feet deep in places. The area has sections of granite rock slab varying in incline from 30 to 45 degrees. The ambient temperature was on the rise from a low of -9 f early in the morning to approx. +12 f mid day. Another avalanche was reported in the Alta 2 area, at a similar aspect and elevation at approximately the same time.
The skiing in the area could be categorized as “upside down snow” with heavier wind effected snow on the surface and lighter less dense snow deeper in the snowpack. This creates a perfect catalyst for an avalanche to occur.
I do want to make it clear that this is not an isolated incident. I expect to see avalanches here on a consistent basis until this snowpack sees some serious form of stabilization. There are many THEORIES on what it will require for this stabilization to happen. My opinion is only time will tell. For now - be overly cautious, do not travel in known avalanche paths, slopes and areas that have traditionally been stable safezones in the past are likely not safe now.
Lastly, Our condolences go out to Mr. Nodines family and friends. I truly hope that your loss is not in vain and that it can make other backcountry travelers and skiers think about their surroundings and avoid being injured or killed. I would also like to thank the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort ski patrol for their hard work, under extreme pressure and danger to open our amazing ski hill. This is of no fault of theirs. To all skiers - This is an abnormal snowpack that we have been given this year - please respect it and stay safe!
The Jackson Hole, WY Real Estate Market had been very strong for the last couple of years, that is, until the beginning of this summer. Last year, while the nations real estate market suffered one of the most significant downturn since the 80’s. Those of us involved in Jackson Hole real estate enjoyed double digit price appreciation. Those times are gone for now. The combination of the credit tightening and the fall of the stock market we have seen recent sales decrease to a very slow pace. Though I do believe in the “long term” the market her in Jackson Hole will be strong than most other markets. My opinion is, we are going to see a “correction”, and to what level is anybodies guess. For the market to truly go down would be quite drastic. it is dependent on what time period you do your number from. If you go from the prior four year time period, starting in 2003, our values are up 144% over that time. Now if a property was purchased last year it might have been bought at the very top of the Jackson Hole market so there is a down side. There are a few shining lights in our area. One, the inventory increase has slowed, likely because many of the Jackson hole property owners understand that now is not the best time to sell and they have the financial ability to wait it out. Two, the high end of the market has held steady. Three, we have seen sales in the very high end of the market (10 million + ) which, skews our numbers. Here are the numbers for the Jackson Hole Valley which Includes Wilson, WY real estate, Teton Village real estate, Jackson, Wy real estate, and all properties within Teton County Wy. These numbers compare 365 days starting in October 2006-2007 compared to 365 days over the same dates ending in October 2007-2008. Total number of listings is up +19% to 1,116 Listings from 941 the year prior. Total number of sales down - 42% to 278 sold from 478 sold in 2006-2007, Total Sales dollar volume down -27% to $456,359,749 from $627,169,240. The median sales price was UP to $947,500 from $749,500 an increase of +26% . The average sales price was up +25% TO $1,641,582 FROM $1,312,070 . Summation: Prices are still high and we did see another major increase average and median sales prices. This is due to the large percentage of sales being very high-end. In the lower end of the market (Below 1.5 million) the market has slowed to a trickle. The next six months is going to be very telling as to the real condition of our real estate market in Jackson Hole.

Summary, The lower end in Jackson Hole Real Estate (below $1.5mill) has seen the effect of the financial lending crisis that is present nationwide. The Lending institutions are requiring people to have better crdit and great liquid assests in order to get loans (As they should). This has created an effect that moves up through the market - meaning the $350k condominium buyer is not able to get a loan, the 350k condominium seller can not sell to that buyer. That seller isn’t able to move up into the next price range above, and this continues into each market above. This does not having the same effect on the highest end market, as they seem to be looking for long term places to put money and they have greater access to funding sources.
Our Jackson Hole Real Estate inventory is currently rising especially in the area of Jackson, sales spices have started pushing downward and number of sales have just began decreasing on a greater scale . This indicates that we are moving towards a buyer market.

Fracture went down to the November 9th rain ice layer that has persisted through the fall due to freezing temperatures at higher elevations (above 7700ft on north facing and higher elevations on south facing aspects) The general area was controlled by Jackson Hole ski patrol using explosives earlier in the day. The deposition was said to be up to 10 feet deep in places. The area has sections of granite rock slab varying in incline from 30 to 45 degrees.
