A rare thing....

 I am pretty sure I have never heard anyone around town say that April is their favorite month in Jackson.  While most of the rest of the country is planting their gardens, mowing their lawns, playing golf, etc, we are still fully immersed in snow during April.  April is amazing when its nice, and downright gnarly when its not.  Perhaps the brightest part about April is that the National Park Service plows the Grand Teton National Park road starting in March with the hopes of opening it to hikers, bikers, rollerbladers, skateboarders, etc (aka  anything not motorized) for all of April.  So, you get some of the best views on planet Earth with no traffic whatsoever.  I have gone a few nights this week after work and it blows me away to go on a 30 mile ride on buffed roads, have amazing views, and be lucky to see one or two other people.  To say we are spoiled wouldnt even begin to tell the story.  

My bike, a snow bank, and beautiful Mt. Moran.

 The Cathedral Group, aka Tewinot, the Grand, and Owen.  

Road biking at its very finest!!!!
