An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

The ski resort has 3quad chairs ( 2 are high-speed detachable), 1 double chair, and 1 conveyor. The greatest vertical drop is 2,419 feet. It is rated as 85% Difficult and 15% Advanced in skiing. There are also Nordic skiing trails, snow-cat adventures, and activities that include sleighride dinners and dogsled tours. Grand Targhee is famous for abundant Champaign powder snow. It averages over 500 inches of snowfall per season which ranks it among top four ski resorts in North America. This is impressive considering that it is 670 miles inland and the snow that falls is nearly always dry powder snow. The reason for the abundant snowfall is twofold. First, the area is on the west slope or wet side of the 13,700 foot Grand Tetons and second because there is a moisture channel through the Rock

First, the area is on the west slope or wet side of the 13,700 foot Grand Tetons and second because there is a moisture channel through the Rocky Mountains formed by the Snake River Plain that channels moisture to the west slope of the Tetons all the way from the Pacific Ocean. Summertime offers scenic chairlift rides, kids camps, music festivals, a bluegrass festival, and the 9 hole Targhee Village golf course.
