With no snow here in Jackson its getting harder and harder to find fun things to ski. In an effort to remain positive and engaged, myself, Andrew and Steve decided to check out Granite Canyon for the first time. We were aware of the unique dangers that Granite presents with its north facing slopes and long steep chutes, but with no new snow, sunny skies and low avalanche conditions we decided it was a good day to explore. We skied the top of Endless Coulior and then traversed over and skied the bottom of Mile Long Coulior.
We had surprisingly good turns in there and it was about as close to skiing powder as we've come in a month. A good, safe day had by all.

It wasn't a beautiful day or anything
