TETON TELEPHORIA
Not offered in 2005
2006 Dates - To Be Announced


Grand Targhee, Wyoming

Grand Targhee has long been famous for its powder, views, terrain, and friendly atmosphere. We are gathering here for the fourth year to celebrate this classic area and it's longstanding tradition of tele skiing and great powder.

This is a national festival/workshop that will include two days of clinics at Grand Targhee Ski Area and an optional touring day on Monday in the Teton backcountry.

Along with the daily workshops there will be on snow demos, evening entertainment and a general Tele Social throughout the weekend. We will be based in Driggs, at the foot of the Teton Range and a 20 minute drive from the area. You can sign up for the whole weekend event, part of it, or just come for the gathering.

On snow demos will be available from various manufacturers. Monday is the optional touring day (weather permitting) with a variety of backcountry tours in the West Teton area. All tours will be guided with a local guide and a guest instructor/guide. Some tours will focus on education and some on skiing. Evenings will include slide shows and videos as well as general socializing in the small town of Driggs, at the base of the mountain.

The Instructors

We emphasize personal instruction, small group sizes, and FUN. Our instructors have years of experience and are a great collection from throughout the western region.

 
The Demos

There will be an on snow demo with skis, boots, and bindings at Targhee on the Saturday and Sunday. Some of the companies that will have demos there are Garmont, Karhu, Voile, K2, Atomic, Black Diamond, and Scarpa. We also have gear from Backcountry Access for the backcountry day.

 
The Tours  

Space is limited for the tours and is available first to workshop participants. The tour includes breakfast that morning in Driggs and generally will be in the Teton Pass area but will be decided based on best conditions. Groups will include one guest guide and one local guide. There will be different types of tours, some focusing on education and some more on skiing.

Space in the workshops is finite, especially in Total Backcountry. Because of this there is no direct registration on the website. You can go to the order page to ask for more info or get a registration form to download. Fax, mail, e-mail or (best of all) call on the 800 # to talk to a real person. If you get a machine, leave a number and time to call and we will call you back.
