Climbing and Skiing Middle Teton

Left town at 4 am and climbed 6k vert in 4 hours to the summit of Middle Teton. I was hoping to ski the east face which is one of my favorites in the Tetons, but the snow was too soft and the entrance was melted down to a vertical rock slab, so I had to ski the west couloir instead. Since the west couloir didn t get sun till afternoon, I waited 2 hours on the summit for it to soften, but it never really did. Some terrible turns in the couloir, (sound on) followed by good corn, some rock walking and a couple miles of dirt back to the car. It was a great chance to take the new ski I ve been working on with Meier skis, The Teton out for a tour in the mountains I named them after. Always a fun day, but the lines are way more melted out than I thought they would be after such a big winter. I m getting close, but still #notoverit. Follow me on Instagram & Tiktok @o_leeps!
