Overview

Here you'll feel the pull of big mountain exposure with the expanse of Jackson Hole at your feet.

Need to Know

As with its sister, Once Is Enough, expect snow conditions to be fickle due to southern exposure. The drop in might be a lot mellower than Once, but the line is arguably more involved.

With good snow, Twice is tough to beat for sustained, aesthetic, thrilling steeps. Any doubts about the snow quality, save it for another day as it could be terrifying. Twice is a major avalanche path with the first few turns being an obvious starting zone. Be aware of other travelers who could be on the No Name traverse below the line.

Description

Just past the entrance to the north-facing Central Couloir, you'll encounter the entrance to Twice. The first half of Twice takes you through this upper snowfield. Look left for a blunt rocky outcrop, providing a good, safe spot to keep an eye on your partner.

From here, the line doglegs right and narrows into a couloir for the last few hundred feet. With quality snow, this section is great fun, but of course, expect rocks and variable snow.

Exit the couloir right to wait for your partner on the No Name traverse. Or, rip the bowl straight to the bottom.
