FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK
By the time this issue hits
stands, the Best of Jackson Hole
2010 party will be over, and some
of us will already be talking
about next year. (Our “ad guy,”
Shannon McCormick, tallies the
results of the readers poll, and
catching fraud for him is something
along the lines of playing
Space Invaders, so it takes him a
while to come down.)
I have heard the phrase “best
of” so many times in the last
couple months that it has become
as meaningless to me as
“compassionate conservative.”
I’ve heard it so often that not
until Sunday night, when a
friend reminded me, did I consider
that people are excited for
this Best of Issue, if for no other
reason than it emphasizes things
we enjoy about our town that do
not hinge on the weather. Another
reason might be to scoff at
the results, but I’ve begun to
find some comfort in the predictability
of cynical (often
anonymous) reactions.
Here is my “ultimate” Best of
Jackson Hole: The Web, for giving
anonymous haters a forum.
On the other hand, if it weren’t
for the Web, or columnist Aaron
Wallis, no Jackson resident
Matthew J. Irwin
Simply the Best (of JH)
Snow Pack
would ever say anything unkind
about anybody (where it can be
heard).
Boy, am I in a mood … Shall I
also question the value of superlatives
while I’m at it?
Never mind.
In addition to a poll of the
best Jackson Hole has to offer,
Best Of is a measure of the collective
taste of JH Weekly readers,
of our “demographic,” if you
will. Interestingly, I agree with
many of the results of the readers
poll, and what I find comforting
about BOJH, versus a
Best Of issue elsewhere, is that
while tastes differ across the valley,
they do not siphon down to
the lowest common denominator.
Best Of’s in big cities that
I’ve reviewed often end up with
some chain or other as Best
Mexican or Best Coffee. The results
in Jackson, I believe, stem
as much from a sophisticated

readership as from a noticeable
lack of chains.
I wonder, then, to what degree
voters select what they actually
consider to be the best over the
places they frequent, because of
cost, for instance, or convenience.
I certainly find myself rotating
two or three favorite restaurants,
in part because I know I can eat
at them without having an allergic
reaction, but also because I
crave particular items on their
menus or because they are
within walking distance.
Some of the more interesting
things about Jackson Hole culture,
however, are not easily categorized.
They are moments or
feelings, even if they are about a
person or a place, that can’t be
qualified, but we can certainly
try to explain. That’s where editorial
picks come in. They vary as
much in the selections as in the
reasons behind them – reflective
of the individuals who wrote
them. I don’t agree with all of
them, and many of them are
meant to be funny, if not ironic,
but at any rate entertaining.
And if you think this BOJH is
good, just wait until next year …

Spring Snow
A word from our readers
LETTERS
Last week’s above freezing temperatures and hot sun changed our winter snowpack
to a spring snowpack. The spring’s melt-freeze cycle partially melts snow grains
during the day and then refreezes them at night. From this cycle, a supportable crust
is formed, and when it begins to melt, it becomes a soft, smooth skiing surface.
Though once the snow becomes too warm, it transforms into unsupportable slush.
To maintain the smooth skiing surfaces found during the spring melt-freeze cycle,
there is etiquette for backcountry riders. Knowing spring skiing etiquette will not only
keep the skiing good, but it will also mitigate the hazard of wet slides. The etiquette is
simple: when the snow is too soft do not ski it. Too soft is when your ski or board
starts to sink into the slush and leaves behind ruts. There are many aspects to ride, so
plan your tour with the day’s temperatures.
During last week’s melt-freeze cycle, green grass popped up around the valley,
snow depths shrank, and the avalanche hazard dropped to low. Low probability of avalanches
does not mean there is no possibility. Remember, the hazard rating does not
forecast for terrain above 10,000 feet. So check your slopes even though it is spring
snow, because this year’s thin snowpack and persistent weak layers can cause the unpredictable
outliers. JHW – Lisa Van Sciver
Cell Phones—Read the Fine Print
[This letter has been edited for length. Dr. Davis will speak at the Environmental
Health Forum, this week. More on page 43.]
Last week the technology world stood on notice as a fiercely independent
state legislator, Democrat Andrea Boland, bucked the Maine
political establishment and proposed to place visible warning labels directly
on cell phones:
“Cell phones emit electromagnetic radiation, exposure to which may
increase the risk of brain cancer. Users, especially pregnant women and
children, should reduce their exposure.”
The Cellular Telecommunications and Industry Association (CTIA) opposes
providing warning labels that can easily be seen on cell phones. In
fact, Boland’s proposal makes it more likely that the harried public will
actually see what the manufacturers of phones have quietly begun to tell
us. New phones today come with warnings that few ever see, advising
that the phone be kept some distance from the body; the Motorola V
195, 1 inch, the Blackberry 8300, 0.98 inches, the Nokia, 1100, 1/4 inch
and the iPhone, 5/8 inch. In addition, several of these phones include
statements that “phones should not be used or carried on the body.”
A warning found on a pamphlet for the HTC Eris Droid cell phone from
Verizon, recommends “ that no part of the human body be allowed to
come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment,” found
on page 11 of the phone’s “Product Safety and Warranty Information”
booklet. A customer query about this was referred to an online appendix
which explained on page 219: “To comply with RF exposure requirements,
a minimum separation distance of 1.5 cm must be maintained between the
user’s body and the handset, including the antenna.”
When the urbane Dane Snowden, Vice President for External and
State Affairs of the CTIA, was asked at the Maine committee hearing by
Representative Peter Stuckey to explain why cell phone manuals included
such warnings today, he replied he would have to get back to the
committee. Snowden certainly has experience with consumer matters,
having previously served as Chief of the Consumer and Governmental
Affairs Bureau of the Federal Communications Commission.
In fact, standards for cell phones were set in 1997, at a time when few
people owned phones, and were based on a six-foot-tall man, weighing
two hundred pounds, with an 11 pound head talking for six
minutes. The warnings found deep inside the packaging of all modern
phones today use this same big guy model. Today, three out of every
four 12 year olds have a phone, as do half of all 10 year olds. For the past
decade, there has been no independent research underway on cell
phones in the U.S. and there is no ongoing health surveillance, a subject
about which I and others testified at the U.S. Senate Hearings in September
held by senators Harkin and Specter. In countries where phones
have been used more heavily and for longer periods of time, independent
scientists have found four-fold increased risks of brain tumors in
those who began to use phones regularly as teen-agers. Others have
found doubled risks in adults who are long-term users.

Academy Awards
In his Feb. 24 column, Andrew Munz promised
“sound advice on who was going to win the statues”
in his article on the Oscars due out the following
week. You can imagine the breathless excitement
with which I opened last week’s Weekly to read his
picks. For Best Picture he suggested we “flip a coin.”
Best Actor is “tough, but not as tough as Best Actress”
he warned with bravado. He did offer two
picks that “I’m pretty certain of.” Mr. Munz should
have been a presidential press secretary.
As Mr. Munz was no help, I used an online movie
critic’s picks to fill out the Academy Awards Contest
form in the Daily. I haven’t been a big moviegoer
since John Wayne died, and have no need for a free
movie pass, I just believe in supporting businesses
that use real butter on their popcorn. It is difficult to
know what movies to choose as it is not the best
movie that wins but the one that gets the most votes.
Directors and producers “lobby” for their nominated
movies as intensely as any corporation lobbies
congress. The only difference is the The
Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has a
set of guidelines they actually enforce.
Anna watched the Super Bowl with me, showing
extreme patience when I screamed at the TV, so I
agreed to watched the Academy Awards, the
women’s Super Bowl. It was a display of arrogant,
self-serving glitter. There was no plot, no nudity, no
action and no doubt that Hollywood is very important,
at least in the opinion of those presenting and
receiving awards. Tragically, Brad and Angelina
didn’t show up leaving unanswered rumors, well
documented in checkout tabloids, of break up.
There were, however, lots of silicone enhanced
blonds with low-cut gowns, and each speech was
loaded with political undertones. It’s like Fox News
without the rage.
There was the suspense of opening the envelope
to the words of, “and the winner is.” It’s kind of like
World Wrestling Federation bouts, suspenseful for
the audience, lots of chances to cheer and hiss, but
the outcome is already known by insiders. At least
the costumes in the WWF are not as outrageous as
those at the Oscars.
Sadly, my online critic was wrong in virtually
every category. But at least he went out on a limb
and picked. It’s the difference between a John
Wayne and a Brad Pitt. JHW

On “We can do much
better,” Editorial
■ Barrasso doesn’t have an idealistic
view of personal responsibility,
he pretends to have a
responsible one. I have no doubt
that he understands the limits of
personal responsibility when patients
are faced with a bill that is
larger than a lifetime of earnings.
The problem is that too many
people refuse to take responsibility
when they clearly can.
On “Art opinion
piece,” Public Editor
■ Leo Tolstoy said that true art
must be an expression of the
artist’s heart and emotion, and
that emotion must be communicated
to the ‘viewer’ (or listener,
etc.) via the work. He also differentiated
between good art
and bad art; good art uplifts the
human spirit, while bad art degrades
it.
Art can be anything and it’s quality
is more imagination than fact.
On “Sculpture

Buzz
■ “The sculpture marks one of
two proposed projects that
would change the way people
look at, think about and use the

Yeah, clutter it up a bit

Ski bum reality show on ice
The proposed television show
that would chronicle the lives of
young Jackson ski bums is on indefinite
hold. The series, called
“Epic,” was to have started
shooting in February but according
to the show’s producer:
“things aren’t coming together.”
That’s industry code for nobody
wants to air it and nobody can
pay for it.
Robert Hickey of Better Wings
Entertainment in Los Angeles
isn’t discouraged, saying it typically
takes shows like this a few
years to wind up on the small
screen. Producers of Epic had received
preliminary approval for a
cash rebate from the Wyoming
film incentive program.
For some odd reason, Canadian
Business was interested
enough to pick up the story.
Would real cowboys make ‘the code’ a law?
Powder Week turns BYOP
The 10th annual Powder
Week wrapped up last week at
JHMR. The annual event features
23 ski manufacturers, the
staff of Powder Magazine and
powder conditions. Two out of
three ain’t bad, eh?
Powder hounds demo’d 2011
ski gear – presumably to see
how it held up on the rocks – in
search of whatever freshies they
could find. “After two days of
sun-soaked groomers, the
clouds rolled in and blanketed
the resort with 10 inches of the
fresh stuff for one final day of
perfect conditions.” Wait, what?

to become the “King” of

Code of Wyoming
Newspapers across the country
were tickled by Wyoming’s
“Cowboy Creed.” The creed features
10 bullet points: Live each
day with courage; Take pride in
your work; Always finish what
you start; Do what has to be
done; Be tough, but fair; When
you make a promise, keep it;
Ride for the brand; Talk less and
say more; Remember that some
things aren’t for sale; Know
where to draw the line.
The bill, which is symbolic
only, was sponsored by Sen. Jim
Anderson-R. It was borrowed
from the 2004 book, Code of the
West by James Owen, a retired
Wall Street investor from Texas.
We found equal instances of
publications that either
ridiculed it or found it refreshingly
charming.

It was exciting to see our voter numbers really grow in this, our second annual Best of Jackson Hole readers poll.
I was told not to reveal all the magic by disclosing exactly how many voters we had, but I can say it was not
very far under 1,000. Not bad for a community with an esimated 20,000 full-time residents!Also, voters were all
ages. The majority were under 50 and the biggest block identified themselves as 26 to 35, though there were enough
voters over the age of 66 to field a seniors’ soccer team.
And voters were affluent. About a fifth of them reported annual incomes of more than $100,000. But mostly they
were middle classy, with half reporting incomes of $20 thousand to $60 thousand.
We saw a few surprises, some of them nice (the locally-owned Trio edging out McDonald’s for Best French Fries),
and one that will probably ensure this publication is never again allowed inside the Cowboy Bar, which was voted
Best Gay Hangout for the second year. But hey, Cowboy Bar, we didn’t say you were the best gay hangout. The voters
decided, so take it up with them. And embrace diversity.
Sadly, a few Best Of winners now exist only in memory. The many, many friends of the late Mark Wolling, some of
whom only became acquainted with “Big Wally” after his death, honored the man by overwhelmingly naming
him Best Ski Patroller. EDITOR’S
At least a couple of winners were businesses that are now gone. Both Lyndsay McCandless Contemporary and

BEST SUNDAY DRIVE
The Gros Ventre
The first time I drove from Kelly to Upper Slide Lake in the Gros Ventre
Wilderness, I was blown away by the topographical diversity. But to turn
around and discover the Teton view on the stretch from Lower Slide
Lake to Kelly Warm Springs—Gros Ventre River in the foreground—was
epic. To this day, it’s my favorite Sunday drive, recommended to countless
tourists over the years. It helps remind one that wealth is subjective,
and making a virtue of necessity is always easier with accessibility.
– Aaron Davis
BEST TOWN PARK
Mike Yokel Park
I remember getting lost trying to find it on our bikes. We must have
been nine or 10, just old enough to bike into town unsupervised without
having our moms freak out. Mike Yokel Park was my favorite park growing
up, even though Powderhorn Park was closer to my house. Not only
does Mike Yokel have a bridge and awesome equipment, but it has a
spacious field too (at Powderhorn, it’s hard to play Frisbee without running
into the chain link baseball fence). The fact that most people
don’t even know where it is helps lower its populous.
During the summer, I enjoy getting together with buddies for some volleyball,
and I even head out
there alone to do some writing
on a picnic bench.
There’s a small creek that
runs by the park which adds
extra ambiance. A patch of
grass surrounded by willows
serves as my favorite spot to
sit while watching the water.
Not much traffic buzzes on
the road either, so there is indeed
a constant sense of
calm, even when the playing
activity is high.
Miller Park is another great
one, but my loyalty lies with
Mike Yokel.

THANK YOU!
WORST BLING
Bluetooth
Headset
In the bathroom, airports,
the grocery store, on street
corners – you’ve seen
strangers seemingly talking to
themselves in the oddest of
places. Using a Bluetooth
headset in the car might be
a way around some of the
hands-free legislation across
the country, but using one as
an “accessory” when it’s not
in use? Uh, what has “bling”
come to? What happened to
a good tat, or piercing?
There’s even a product
called Loud ’N Clear—discovered
from a hilarious infomercial—that
poses a
hearing aid as a fake Bluetooth
headset. The advertisement
makes grandpa look
hip and cool by fooling people
into thinking he is wearing
one of “those blue-teeth
portable car phone ear thingies.”
Thankfully, I’ve seen
fewer headsets in Teton
County than anywhere else.
Just another reason it feels
good to call this place home.
– Aaron Davis

WORST REASON TO BE MALE IN JACKSON
Bathroom Lines
In any other town, a line for the men’s bathroom is like a straight man in San Francisco,
practically unheard of. In Jackson, owing to the disproportionate male-to-female ratio,
which is especially prominent during the winter season (hence January’s nickname, “manuary”)
men are often found waiting in line to pee. Unlike in other towns where women regularly
stand in long bathroom bar queues, while men breeze in and out, bathroom wait times,
and bathroom behavior, are often reversed. “I have snuck into a women’s bathroom in this
town more than once,” said 27-year-old Jackson male, Nick Staron. – Christie Koriakin
BEST REASON TO NOT BE DRUNK IN PUBLIC
Teton County Fair
Teton County Fair, overall, seems like a halfway decent playground for the inebriated,
right? But if you decide to take your stammering, swaying self to the fair’s demolition
derby – an alleged family event (since violent, destructive behavior is better for the kids
than say, naked dudes), beware: your drunken body best remain clothed and in the
stands. In 2005, a Jackson man, armed with a fire hydrant made his naked debut on the
derby grounds, only to be shot with a taser dart that shelled out 50,000 electrical volts.
Then in 2006, another ballsy streaker almost narrowly escaped the cops after parading his
full monty for the crowd. He was then apprehended and sustained injuries after a scuffle
with police. Both men have taught us that the demolition derby, where impressionable
children learn modes of destruction, is the worst place to be drunk in public.

BEST INVENTIVE MECHANIC
Phil Bagley
Over on the West Bank, a mechanic is an old school recycler – that is, Phil Bagley does it
himself. Like Mexican bottlers reuse bottles rather than send them to a recycling plant -
sometimes the old label still shows through, Bagley takes all the oil from the cars he services
and runs them through a machine that heats the shop, a machine that he invented. We
don’t know if he does it to save money, to DIY or to be environmentally conscious, but we
think its pretty cool. – Matthew Irwin
WORST VOTER CONFUSION
The Mayor’s Party Affiliation
We were a little perplexed about the results for Best Democrat. While those who made the
list of most popular political representatives made perfect sense, there seems to be some
confusion about the political affiliation of our mayor, Mark Barron.
Barron was voted the third most popular Democrat in Jackson Hole, but the problem is
he’s actually a registered Republican.
Sure, party affiliations don’t mean much at the local level, and Barron probably has a relatively
centrist political outlook anyway. But we wondered why so many voters mistook him for
a Democrat. Maybe Shannon McCormick, our ad sales dude, said it best: “Well, he seems
like a pretty cool dude, so maybe a lot of people just assumed he’s a Democrat.” Works for
us, but how will Barron feel about the confusion? – Ben Cannon
BEST COLUMNIST TO EDIT (Call it censorship if you will)
Aaron Wallis
Jackson Hole is not prepared for the opinions of artist Aaron Wallis. In a town of people perpetually
tiptoeing around each other to avoid controversy, misunderstanding (another word
for “neither one of us wants to admit we’re wrong”), and lash-back, Wallis calls things as he
sees them. I respect the brutal sincerity in Wallis’ point-of-view. Though he is harder on our
provincial town than he needs to be and though he really pisses us off sometimes, he challenges
us to view ourselves in a bigger context. I’m still gonna edit him though. – Matthew Irwin

BEST SHOW OF FORCE
Jackson Cops
Some may disagree, but Jackson has the best cops. In New Orleans, the po-po are a
bunch of hard-asses. The Riverton PD makes the Keystone Cops look like CSI Wyoming. I’ve
seen local law enforcement work from both sides – as perp and complainant – and I have
found them to be nothing but courteous and professional. Jackson presents unique problems
for those who protect and serve. Our small town demeanor is giving way to big city riffraff.
Murder, arson, and drug crimes are now cropping up and officers never know whether
they may be responding to a cat in a tree or a bank robbery on any given shift. Sheriff’s
deputies will usually look the other way over a ‘spidered’ windshield – they know the drill. JPD
has seen their share of drunks and still remain civil night after night. I sleep better knowing
Johnny Law is on the job. – Jake Nichols
BEST AVALANCHE GEAR ACCOUTREMENT
Cholula Hot Sauce
When Josh Smith gets ready to ski in the morning
he grabs his probe, shovel, beacon and a bottle of
Cholula hot sauce. “I don’t have time to eat on a
powder day,” said Smith, an employee at Nick Wilson’s.
So he tucks a Nick’s breakfast burrito into his
Flak Jacket to eat on the fly. “I’m not saying these
burritos are the worst, but they are definitely not the
best,” Smith said. Therein lies the necessity for a spicy
condiment to add some oomph to his blasé breakfast.
Smith nestles the entire glass bottle neatly into
the upper left pocket of his avy vest, mixing taste,
style and safety. – Christie Koriakin
BEST THING ABOUT LIVING IN A SMALL TOWN
Leaving your Doors Unlocked
I went out of town last year for Christmas. A couple of days later my roommate left town
too. I returned home a couple of days before her only to find that she had locked the door. I
realized I did not even own a key to my own house because we had never ever before
locked the doors. I had to climb through the window to get back in, but it was a small price
to pay for the feeling of well-being and safety that comes with living in a town where locking
your doors is a choice. I’m not suggesting that there is no crime in Jackson. My jacket and
my bike were both stolen last year. But they were both stolen from bars, later to be found
around the corner the next day. In both cases, I’m pretty sure the perpetrator just needed to
get home. And I am not suggesting that it’s a particularly good idea to leave your keys in
the ignition like some people I know, but in comparison to a large city, the small town feeling
of safety is completely liberating. Walking around town freely without fear and the freedom
to place your purse down for a second at a bar creates an irreplaceable feeling of comfort
that you just can’t find in some places. – Christie Koriakin
BEST ADVERTISING BY MAKING LIGHT OF AWKWARD SUBJECT
Lisa Finkelstein
No one on our editorial staff, to my knowledge, has had to deal with health problems like
urinary tract infections or the frequent urge to pee (though reporter Jake Nichols, who recently
turned 46, is a good candidate). But if and when anyone ever needs the name of a
good urologist, it’s likely that Dr. Lisa Finkelstein’s will come up.
For years, Finkelstein’s practice has stood out in newspapers around the region for her humorous,
often irreverent ads about the pitfalls and inconvenience of living with a urinary disorder.
If we were smart and had gone into advertising instead of journalism, we could use
some marketing terms about how the most ridiculous ads are often the most effective. Admit
it, all those Finkelstein ads have left some sort of impression on you, too. – Ben Cannon
BEST OF THE WORST
Face-Crack
Along with his traditional safety
gear, Smith also carries a bottle of
Cholula hot sauce as a precaution
against a blasé burrito.
Remember when people used to write letters? Then email came along. Email is so 2005.
Sparked by Friendster in ‘02, popularized with Myspace since ‘03, and surpassed by Facebook
in the last couple of years, social networks were originally geared towards college students.
With more than 200 million registered users, Facebook’s fastest growing demographic
is now women, 55 and older! It’s a love-hate invention—a Petri dish for invasion of privacy,
farming of users’ data to advertisers, an invitation to child predators and other criminals, and
a general waste of time. True. But indulging for just a few minutes never hurt anybody, right?
Frequent users are attracted by low cost, reviving old relationships, keeping in touch with
friends, even as a business tool. But it goes beyond that. It has become a cultural addiction
for some. In what was really the first Internet decade, and with social networking coming
along in the latter half, the greatest impact of these sites has yet to be seen.
Remember when people used to talk to each other? That is so 2009. – Aaron Davis

WORST TREND FOR PUBLIC RELATIONS
Transparency
Journalists hate the word “undisclosed.” Now, so does the American public. Thanks to the
ramped-up ‘Age of eCommunication,’ there is nowhere to hide if you are St. John’s Medical
Center, the Community Housing Trust, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort or Grand Teton National
Park. Transparency is the “in” thing now. Ask the brass at Toyota, who are scrambling to
come clean in the wake of their recent safety recalls. Ask a certain golfer or politician or
preacher who entered into a clandestine relationship, got caught, denied everything, and
finally held the obligatory press conference where they begged for forgiveness. St. John’s recently
received a ‘razzie’ of sorts from a newly formed advocacy group for their refusal to
open certain surgery records to the News&Guide. The Community Housing Trust guards its
QuickBooks files like they’re weapons of mass destruction. If something goes down at the
Mountain, readers can expect to get the scoop when the resort is good and ready to release
it – usually in a late afternoon press conference (though this year’s avalanche response
was much better than in 2009). And GTNP is notoriously stingy with access to
information. Though we received no recognition for it, in 2006 JH Weekly obtained records
for a fatal raft accident only after invoking the Freedom of Information Act. – Jake Nichols
BEST PUBLIC RESTROOM
Amangani Lobby
It’s impossible to single out one public restroom in the valley as the best, being as this is a
community so endowed with numerous terrific restrooms. Well, actually there’s probably
nowhere better to relieve oneself than in the cavern of modern luxury and good taste that is
the lobby restroom at Amangani atop Saddle Butte. But really, men, how often do you or I
actually get to number-one into a deep stone trough designed by angels or number-two in
something that looks like it could be Donald Trump’s private stall – if he had good taste. Very
honorable mentions go to some potties along Pearl. The bathroom at Pearl Street Bagels in
town, for one, boasts a whimsical mural and is a constant miracle of no one rushing you by
knocking. The best newcomer bathroom, meanwhile, is just down the road, at Pearl Street
Meat and Fish. That one’s everything a bathroom should be: clean, warm, softly-lit, and I
think I even remember seeing a little end table in there. If there’s not an end table in there,
there should be. – Ben Cannon

BEST PLACE TO SPEND A LONELY HOLIDAY
The Virginian Saloon
Inside the smoky corridors of the Virg, it’s easy to forget that outside these walls, families
are saying grace over turkey dinners and breathing apple-pie-infused air. Nothing in this bar
will remind you of those wholesome holiday moments that you are trying to forget. The neoncolored
beer signs and cowboy karaoke bear very little resemblance to better holidays past,
filled with twinkling Christmas lights and songs about chestnuts roasting on an open fire. Instead
of playing Scrabble with grandma, you can chain smoke and shoot down animated
deer with other society-bucking miscreants who don’t give two flying farts if its Thanksgiving
or not. No eggnog for us. Whiskey and water, please. That coldness in your heart can quickly
be warmed by a couple of shots of Jack Daniels. So if you find yourself without a Valentine or
without your family on Thanksgiving, and the last thing you need is a reminder of the holidays,
The Virginian Saloon is good place to forget. – Christie Koriakin
BEST SPLURGE
Coulior
In less than three years since its opening, the Coulior Restaurant has surpassed rookie status
and climbed up Jackson Hole’s culinary ladder. With Chef Wes Hamilton at the helm, this 21table
hideaway, situated at the top of the Bridger-Gondola at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort,
has earned our gastro-affection for Hamilton’s forward combinations of high quality fare
and his sustainable outlook – dishes are made of local, free range meats and local and regional
in-season produce. The prix fixe seasonal menu, priced around a hefty $85 per person,
or $145 for the wine pairing option, includes a choice of appetizer – try the delicate
walu sashimi with citrus and pineapple; intermezzo – a selection of savory soups and salads,
and such entrées as buffalo tenderloin, pan-seared opah and wagyu N.Y. strip from Snake
River Farms. Dessert is a handsome surprise - a dish of sweet, seasonal delicacies that tend to
be as much a work of art as they are toothsome. We also dig the scene, a diverse cadre of
diners, from denim clad cowboys and foodie tourists to celebratory couples, older locals in
the know (and with the dough) and manager David Eliason and his skilled servers vigilantly
patrolling their turf.
The mid-mountain eatery recently instated a new way to experience the restaurant’s cuisine.
Chef’s Table allows patrons to dine in the kitchen amid the chef and his crew and witness
the intense preparation, sweat and love involved in the process. – Robyn Vincent

WORST OUTCOME OF P0PULARITY
Pearl Street Bagels
Unfortunately for its popularity, Pearl Street Bagels is just too small. As much as I love the
place, it’s almost impossible to just enjoy your coffee and bagel without getting the death
stare from someone in line who wants your table. If you were to enter at lunch, and see the
line extend to the newspaper racks, hearing the echoes of multiple conversations, anxiety
would set in instantly.
PSB is the number one coffee joint of choice for many people, and with that honor comes
overpopulation. It’s hard to bring your work there and expect to actually focus. You feel like
an elephant in a china shop balancing your coffee from one end to the next. “I’m not cutting
in line, sir,” you say to Mr. Evil Eyes. “Just getting a lid.” Jackson deserves a coffee shop
with enough tables and space for its increasing number of inhabitants. Maybe even somewhere
with a couple couches and some mellow music would be nice. But dreams aside,
PSB’s congested atmosphere makes my delicious vanilla latte run sour. – Andrew Munz

BEST PLACE TO STRIKE UP LATE NIGHT CONVERSATION
Cafe Ponza
While some people believe that nothing good happens after midnight, we admit that
some of the best things to happen to us (minus the jail time) occurred after our horse-drawn
carriage poofed back into a pumpkin. Café Ponza has become our favorite place after
midnight to rub elbows with strange and familiar faces for more reasons than its tasty variety
of New York slices. Why, just the other night on an unassuming March eve, after dirty martinis
at The Wort and late-night happy hour at The Caddy, Ponza was playing host to a veritable
pizza party circus with gyrating ladies, pie-eating, jovial spectators and the colorful, shavedhead
pizza slinger “Bear” dancing from the ovens to the register with just the right amount of
glee. Ponza’s neighborhood vibe makes inhibitions melt and chatter with unlikely characters
very likely. Couple late night pseudo-intellectualism with some artichoke, garlic, sundried
tomato pie and the night just got a little more appetizing. – Robyn Vincent
BEST BUSINESS TO SUPPORT
Valley Bookstore
Everywhere you go it seems someone is saying that books are a thing of the past. With
sales of the Amazon Kindle rising through the roof, and the highly anticipated Apple iBook
application arriving soon, it’s hard to argue otherwise. On the other hand, for those of us
who go against the electronic book movement, there’s nothing more comforting and tangible
than a bookstore. Valley Bookstore has been a local icon for decades, but it’s going to
need the help of its locals to survive the e-book’s ascent. For a business that’s been around
since 1951, Valley Bookstore consistently takes care of its patrons. You can count on them to
always have the newest releases in the store as well as all the buzz-worthy books you’ve
heard about. No, it may not have the insane deals or volume of Amazon, but the employees
are helpful and knowledgeable with the constructive Staff Favorites leaflets hanging off
shelves. If the book you’re looking for isn’t in the store, they’ll order it for you and have it in
your hands in four business days. They even offer locals a 10-percent discount on all books. If
there was one store that would be sorely missed, it would be this one. – Andrew Munz (Disclaimer:
Munz worked behind the counter at Valley Bookstore last summer.)
BEST RETAIL EXPERIENCE
Stone Drug
Tokers give themselves away when they chuckle at the name, but Jackson’s only independently
owned pharmacy is nothing to laugh at. In an age when big boxes have
stamped out Mom-and-Pop operations, Stone Drug keeps chugging along in a different dimension;
a time-warped slice of plaza at 840 Broadway. The pharmacists still wear the white
coats and stand, like, 10 feet above the customer. Where else in these United States can a
consumer fill a prescription, renew his fishing license, grab a box of 12-guage shells, and pick
up an egg of pantyhose for the old lady all in one place? It’s Wal-Mart without the 200,000
square feet. Open every day and, yes, they deliver. – Jake Nichols
BEST LOCAL ATMOSPHERE
Snake River Brewery
To those of us who have been here most of our lives (myself included), it’s becoming hard
to find a place that isn’t filled with strange faces. The one place that remains as amusing
and comforting as ever is our local brew pub. For a place that even honors its locals and frequent
patrons (see: The Mug Club), the pub is always consistent in its mellow flavor and attitude
towards all who enter. The waitresses are typically as amusing and sprightly as the beer
in your pint glass, and the savory hot wings have been touted as being the best in the valley.
Rarely does the pub let me down, and, unlike walking into the Silver Dollar on Tuesday nights,
I actually recognize the people sitting at the bar and chatting with the waitresses. It’s a
place where those of us who know the terms “Hefe”, “A.K.”, “Disco”, and “Danimal’s” head
with our steins firm in hand. Overflowing with great brews and the type of warmth you’d expect
at home, Snake River Brewery is what Jackson Hole is all about. – Andrew Munz
BEST PLACE I WOULD’VE LIKE TO HAVE A SECOND JOB AT
RIGHT ABOUT NOW
Anthony’s Italian Restaurant
Anthony’s has been gone for a few years now, but that didn’t stop last year’s voters from
naming it one of the best Italian restaurants in Jackson Hole. Few people voted for it this
year, but I, for one, wish now more than ever that Anthony’s still existed. It’s not because I
long for any different Italian food, which maybe I kind of do, but because if Anthony’s were
open, I like to think I would get a second job there. Oh, things aren’t so bad enough (yet)
that I would apply at just any restaurant, but working at Anthony’s would have suited me
fine. Have you heard the stories? Did you ever work there? There was no indoctrination – and
indoctrination is the part I just can’t be bothered with anymore – except to be yourself.
Sarongs, turbans, employees sneaking in at night and using an office loft as a bedroom –
that I could deal with. – Ben Cannon

EDITOR’S CHOICE
BEST CONFECTIONER
Oscar Ortega
Research says we love chocolate for its serotonin producing properties. And thanks to the
bakery and culinary art house Atelier Ortega, chocoholics have a place to celebrate all that is
sweet and gluttonous. The man behind the handsome confections – which sometimes coalesce
curious tastes, such as chocolate bonbons made from caramelized ginger and white tea or
black sesame seed and tamarind, is Oscar Ortega (never fear, chocolate purists, Ortega doles
plain chocolate confections as well). A recent contestant in the renowned global food competition,
Chocolate Masters, Ortega puts his decadent mark on an array of salivating pleasures,
not just chocolate but say, fresh fruit tarts, gelato and sorbet and coconut-infused crème Brule.
We also delight in menu items sans sugar, from flaky baguettes (which sell out by noon), and
smoked salmon and potato hash crepes to asparagus soufflé and a $3 spinach and feta
croissant. Of course, we still recommend dessert with this order … espresso mascarpone
cheese cake, perhaps? Let the chocolate intoxication ensue. – Robyn Vincent

BEST BAR I WISH WAS OPEN IN THE OFF-SEASON
Burke’s Chop House
As far as bistro-style steak houses go, Jackson has several good ones from which to
choose, and I do occasion each of them for various reasons, from Trio’s coziness to Rendezvous
Bistro’s scene, and of course they both serve wonderful food. But when I want a
burger or traditional steak and a glass of wine, I pull up a stool at Burke’s Chop House. The
ladies behind the bar are always nice and the burgers always done just to my liking. Unfortunately,
it can get busy with out-of-towners during peak seasons, and one time a staff
member thought it was just fine to turn up the television and invite in his friends to watch
the game while I was having a nice time with my lady sans obnoxious noise. For the first
reason, I wish Burke’s would stay open a few nights a week during the off-season. For the
second, I wish Jackson Hole had a service industry training school (Disclaimer: I have
been a bad Jackson Hole server). – Matthew Irwin
BEST LARB
Thai Me Up
Man, I crave this stuff. Lime, cilantro, thai chilies, kaffir lime leaves, red onions and
chopped meat (tofu or chicken) – all together called Larb Gai, and it’s pretty simple to
make (my lady and I make it at home), but Thai Me Up makes the best I’ve had. Order this
starter at the East Pearl restaurant and brewery with a side of white rice, and you’ve got a
full meal at around $10. I like to use chopsticks to prevent myself from eating it too quickly.

YUMMIEST TOM YUM
Bon Appe Thai
Thai food can be a full-sensory event; level five spice has
been known to set off all kinds of bodily alarms from acute
pain, ringing in the ears, sweating, swelling, burning, and
some I won’t mention here. A more relaxing way to get all
the sensory goods will be found at the understated urban
cafe Bon Appe Thai on Pearl Avenue with a bowl of their
authentic Tom Yum soup. This treasure chest is full of
prickly bits like Kafir lime leaves, lemon grass, hed
fang mushrooms and unidentifiable roots that
must be fished out by hand with each spoonful.
Combine this with the perfect marriage of
conflicting and pungent vapors of hot and
sour and the soup will have fulfilled some
the aforementioned senses of eating Thai.
Have a seat by the window and watch
Jackson go by with a glass of wine and
bowl of Tom Yum. — Mary Grossman
BEST COUNTRY KITCHEN
The Blue Lion
The food is rich, the staff
well-mannered and the
decor straight out of a
Crabtree & Evelyn catalog,
but more than anything, the
Blue Lion is consistant. Since
I arrived in Jackson in 1998, it
has been the coveted
place to work because it really
packs in the tourists,
dizzy and happy after a
long day on the snowcoach.
The cozy cabin on
North Glenwood, turned
into a restaurant in 1978, is
one of the few places left
for the affluent diner who
has tired of asking the waiter
to explain the funny words
on the menu. “Rack of
Lamb” – now that’s a dish
one can sink his teeth into. –
Matthew Irwin
BEST GLUTEN-FREE
Lotus Café
Just about any restaurant
these days has alternatives
for gluten-free eaters. Thai
Me Up is among my favorite
because just about anything
on the menu can be
adapted, but let me tell you
about an experience I had
this summer. On Town
Square for the farmers market,
I stopped by the Lotus
Café tent for a gluten-free
muffin. I walked away,
sipped my coffee, took a
bite of the muffin, stopped
and walked back to the
tent. “I’m sorry,” I said. “I
asked for the gluten-free
muffin.” “That is it,” said
owner Amy Young. “Are you
sure? I’m allergic.” “Yep.”
“But it’s so good.” “Thank
you.” The North Glenwood
eatery also has GF naan,
Woo-hoo! – Matthew Irwin

BEST UNDER THE RADAR (BUT IN YOUR FACE) RESTAURANT
Sanchez
It may be the row of shrubbery between the patio and the sidewalk, because some people
never seem to see Sanchez Mexican Restaurant. Yet, having lived five years in Southern
California, I find the taqueria on the corner of Pearl and South Glenwood to be closest to the
border for Jackson Hole in preparation and price. Moreover, I can hardly think of a better
patio for a sunny afternoon of people watching. – Matthew Irwin
BEST WAY TO SPEND A WEEKEND MORNING
Shades Café
A visit to Shades Café reminds me of weekend breakfast with my family – that is if my family
included a folk band or a Celtic band, friendly conversation, more than cold cereal and
talk about how to “get out” later in the day. During the winter, I feel at home when my sunglasses
cloud over as I enter; during the summer, I approach to music from the patio away
and think of backyard barbeques. Both seasons, seating gets tight, but I think of it as cozy.
And by the time you make your order, seats will have opened – you may just have to do it
Euro style and share a table – something my family actually did. – Matthew Irwin
BEST BUNS
The Bunnery
A lot of new bakeries seem to be springing up these days, but one of Jackson’s classic

BEST NEW TREND
RedBox
I admit I was suspicious at first. I don’t like sticking my debit
card in just any old machine. And $1 for a movie rental …
what’s the catch? But count me a Redbox fan. The DVD
movie rental kiosks began popping up at McDonald’s
restaurants in the Denver area in 2004. Thanks to an estimated
22,000 vending machines nationwide, Redbox now
controls 19 percent of the DVD rental market, surpassing
even Blockbuster. Jackson-area movie vending machines
can be found at Smith’s, Albertson’s, Maverik, McDonald’s,
and Hoback Market. Every machine contains some 600
discs; each rented an average 15 times. The trend has some
studios seeing red. Warner Brothers just settled a lawsuit with
Redbox owners, Bellevue, Wash.-based Coinstar Inc., which
will put off their new DVD releases one month before they hit
the red boxes. On the plus side, Blu-ray discs will be test-marketed
mid-year. – Jake Nichols
BEST POTENTIAL FOR NEW OLYMPIC SPORT
Dog-mushing
There is an embedded mountain culture that all locals
share—snow sports, après-ski, plugging in vehicles at night,
micro-brew, river sports. Foreign to much of the world, these
characteristics define a lifestyle. But further beyond the obvious,
and perhaps the smallest of winter subcultures that we
get a glimpse of each January, is dog-mushing. Unbeknownst
to most, mushers are in the midst of the busiest time
of year. The 1,000-mile Yukon Quest finished two weeks ago,
the Open World Championship Sled Dog Race starts this
week, and the world-famous 1,100-mile Iditarod Trail Sled
Dog Race begins in early March. Having traveled with the
International Pedigree Stage Stop Sled Dog Race for the last
six years, I can attest that the sport is a sheer testament of
endurance for dog and human. Apart from the daily competitiveness
and logistical demands, it is a gypsy-like, nomadic
clan of partitioned kennel trucks with sleds on top,
traveling from town to town and helping one another along
the way. The competition and camaraderie blend is heartening.
Flip on the TV – should dog mushing be an Olympic
sport? – Aaron Davis
BEST STRUGGLING ARTISTS
Teton Artlab
The story of Teton Artlab is a beautiful struggle against indifference,
apathy, and an absence of relevant contemporary
art. Travis Walker started the Artlab in 2007 because of
the lack of exhibition space for local and contemporary
artists and the stagnation that existed then at the Art Association.
Artlab opened without corporate sponsorship, financial
backing, or being taken seriously by the art
establishment. The first Artlab was next door to Teton Thai,
and it smelled like fish sauce. Teton Artlab was the first to exhibit
work by local artists including Sam and Jenny Dowd,
Charlotte Potter, Tristan Grezko, Mike Tierney and Ben Carson.
Miraculously, the Artlab has managed to grow, and
now occupies a space on the third floor of the Center for
the Arts. Artlab continues to operate a print shop, exhibit
local artists, and teach classes. – Aaron Wallis (Disclaimer:
Wallis is a current resident at Teton Artlab).

WORST PLACE TO FIND LIVE MUSIC
Jackson Hole
Before I moved to Jackson, friends of mine would brag
about what great music acts came through the valley -
Wilco and Sun Volt at the Jackson Hole Music Festival; the
pioneers of the coke-rap genre, The Clipse, and The Gza of
Wu-Tang Clan performed at the Mangy Moose. Well, I
moved here and I have not seen a decent live show since.
Brother Ali was OK. The Center for the Arts theater is a great
venue, but the booking is sadly un-hip, $500 for Frank Sinatra
Jr.? Maybe if they dig up Sammy Davis Jr.’s glass eye
and it performs a duet with Frank Jr. Instead of The National,
Vampire Weekend, Band of Horses or anybody who is hot in
the indie press, the best the Center can do is Bela Fleck.
Jam bands are all the same, I get pissed off because I am
surrounded by patchouli-reeking trustifarians. Can somebody
please pick up a copy of The Fader or Filter and bring
somebody cool to Jackson, or at least someone who was
cool 10 years ago? – Aaron Wallis
BEST ATTEMPT AT KEEPING
THE MUSIC GOING
Indie Promoters
“People joining hand in hand / while the music played the
band. / Lord, they’re setting us on fire.” – from the Grateful
Dead song, “The Music Never Stopped,” written by Bob Weir
and Wyoming’s own John Perry Barlow. Economically speaking,
last year was a trying time for residents and businesses.
With less disposable income to support the arts, one would
expect fewer options for live music. In fact, the opposite was
true. New promoters came to the foreground, delivering a
fresh influx of up-and-coming to nationally recognized
bands, untapped venues, and affordable price tags for
shows. What’s Good Here? Productions (Matt Donovan and
Neil Albert/Jackson), Behind the Barn Productions (Josh
Weltman/Tetonia), and Poppa Presents (Dom
Gagliardi/Jackson) have led the independent charge. Besides
the fact that these individuals take on some level of
monetary risk, the multi-faceted business game of booking,
promoting and organizing concerts is a labor of love. Each
of the proprietors have figured out what works best, given
the character of our community, and for that, the music didn’t
stop in ’09, but accelerated to ’10. Thanks fellas, it’s appreciated!

BEST LOCAL DOCUMENTARY
Swift. Silent. Deep.
How many times this winter
have you dipped out of the
gates at Jackson Hole Mountain
Resort? This relatively new phenomenon
of allowing backcountry
skiing at JHMR – implemented
only 11 years ago - is thanks to
the Jackson Hole Air Force. Swift.
Silent. Deep. chronicles these
renegade skiers and their tireless
efforts to forever change the
strict, no access backcountry policy
while innovating a more aggressive,
extreme style of skiing.
And the film is more than just the story of the JHAF conquering
Jackson Hole’s steeply scenic terrain, it also offers a historic
look at the genesis of JHMR and changing societal
perspectives on skiing culture. Garnering a handful of
awards including Best Documentary from the Powder Video
Awards, Best Soul from the Cold Smoke Awards and Best Selection
from the Newport Beach Film Festival, Swift. Silent.
Deep. is a valuable time capsule that instills pride in locals,
but also pretty much any skier or snowboarder who acknowledges
the effectual, consuming force of the mountains
and that transcendental powder run. – Robyn Vincent

BEST PERFORMANCE
Off Square Theatre
Over the last year, Jackson’s regional theater company
has produced big shows with big casts that demonstrate its
ambition. While Pettycoat Rules and Macbeth were entertaining,
the musical Man of La Mancha demonstrated what
artistic director John Briggs and his staff are capable of. Though
two lead roles and the music director were shipped in,
the rest of the cast and the musicans in the pit were all local.
The set, craftily making use of some materials from previous
performances, was impressive in its detail – thanks to set designer
John Wayne Cook. Resident artist Terry Schwab comfortably
fell into his role as the romantic author Cervantes
and the fool-hearty, but chivalrous Don Quixote. Some J-Holers
attended the show two or three times, and you betta
believe I heard people around town singing some of the
numbers for weeks. – Matthew Irwin
BEST TOURIST CORALE
Outside Haagen Daaz
My parents don’t like surprises when it comes to their food.
That’s why they like chain restaurants. And if there’s one
thing a tourist can count on for a mid-day break from giftshopping,
it’s Haagen Daaz Ice Cream. Even the kids can’t
complain. Jackson’s Haagen Daaz also happens to be located
in an alcove on the southeast corner of Town Square,
which acts as a sort of corale. Tourists who don’t spot the
benches in the George Washington Memorial Park – most of
them – usually plop on the boulder right there, daydream
about moving here or window-shop the stores within view. I
know, because that’s my route home (on foot) and more
than once I’ve been creamed. – Matthew Irwin

Jackson resident Dr.
Devra Davis has been
getting a lot of attention
lately – including
testimony in September
in front of the U.S.
Senate – for insisting
that cell phones be labeled
prominently
with a warning about
their potential to
Dr. Devra Davis
cause cancer. Cell
phone manufacturers
already include this warning, she says, but buried
deep within the instruction manuals (see “Letters,”
page 4).
However, cell phone radiation is only one of several
environmental factors culpable for up to 90 percent
of all cancers, according to information
provided by Davis and The Environmental Health
Trust, which she founded.
Others include the various chemicals and toxins
found in plastics and mammograms, for example.
Davis and local pediatrician Dr. Lisa Ridgway will
discuss ways to avoid these environmental risks on
Monday. – MI

Middle East elections
Stabilization of Iraq requires a “surge” of understanding
between the U.S. and Iran. Robert Dreyfuss has developed
this thesis from his post-9/11 coverage of the Persian Gulf,
including a recent trip to Iran, reporting on the controversial
elections for The Nation.
This weekend, Dreyfuss will be in Jackson Hole to discuss
the affect of the election in Iran, its impact on U.S.-Iran relations,
as well as its relevance to Iraq, where parliamentary
elections were held last Sunday.
Because of strong ties between Iranian factions and their
counterparts in Iraq, Dreyfuss says, the conflict between
the U.S. and Iran will erupt in Iraq unless agreements are
made before the Obama administration’s scheduled withdrawal.
This is not to say that Iran will be able to take control of
Iraq, but that it will potentially plague the nation with violence
and sectarian conflict.
Dreyfuss is an independent journalist. In addition to The
Nation, he writes for Rolling Stone, Mother Jones and The

Targhee hosts
adaptive weekend
Grand Targhee Resort is holding a week
of events to promote adaptive skiing and
raise money for adaptive programs.
Earlier this week, the resort hosted an
adaptive immersion camp for “wounded
warriors,” or disabled veterans as well as
some of friends and relatives.
“It’s a good chance for them to go and
just enjoy being at Targhee,” said Colin
Dye, an adaptive skier familiar with the
program.
The public will have the opportunity
Friday to demo a sit ski and other adaptive
equipment, as well as experience what it’s
like to be blind guided, the way visuallyimpaired
skiers are led down the mountain.
The first ever Fun Race Fundraiser for
Teton Adaptive Sports will be held Saturday.
Individuals and groups are encouraged
to don costumes for the event, and
prizes will go to top racers and those who
raised the most money, which goes toward
adaptive equipment and scholarships. -BC

Ben Winship and Thomas Sneed spread the love.
By Aaron Davis
“The collective consciences
of all our years of study and
marvel at the music really add
up when we get to play it together
and share our passions,”
said Alta musician
Thomas Sneed about a special
run of shows planned
with his former Reeltime
Travelers bandmate, Roy Andrade,
and his local pickin’
buddy, Ben Winship.
For those lucky enough to
see Sneed and Andrade as
members of the Reeltime
Travelers, it was a special
group of young old-timers.
The quintet, which also included
bassist Brandon Story,
singer-songwriter Martha
Scanlan, and fiddler Heidi
Andrade, went on to play the
Grand Ole Opry and score
music with producer T-Bone
Burnett for the film Cold
Mountain.
They exposed old-time
music to jamband audiences
on the festival circuit, and
helped younger audiences

understand the differences
between old-time and the
blossoming popularity of
bluegrass.
The band ended in 2005.
“Thomas and I met about a
hundred feet from where I am
right now,” Andrade said from
his office at East Tennessee
State University, where he directs
old-time bands and
teaches fiddle, guitar, and
banjo at the biggest bluegrass
and country program in the
nation.
“In those days,” he continued,
“everyone in [Reeltime]
was really at the same point
in our journey with old-time
music.
“There was an innocence
and strength in that. We were

there was wonderment
around the music.”
In addition to playing
music before, during and
after work hours, Andrade
was recently contracted by
the University of Tennessee to
write the first country music
textbook—a monumental
task.
He’ll rest from the thousand-page
comprehensive
project when he comes to
Teton County for his spring
break.
An exhausted road musician,
Sneed relocated to Teton
Valley about seven years ago.
He and Winship began pickin’
tunes shortly thereafter, and
have played together in many
different ensemble formations
over the years.
Winship, who is also a
member of Brother Mule,
Growling Old Men, Kane’s
River, and produces the Fishing
Music compilation discs,
recently spent a week in Denver
recording with songstress
Mollie O’ Brien and guitarist
Rich Moore.
HOMETOWN
friendly people
When a group of players
like Winship, Sneed and Andrade
get together, the energy
is really exciting for the audience.
Their wealth of knowledge
of obscure old-time
songs, lyrical instrumentals,
foot-stomping ballads and
twists of tongue keep you on
the edge of your seat. Mingle
that with a woody mix of guitars,
banjos, mandolins, tenor
guitars, octave mandolins,
fiddles and human voices,
and you folk connoisseurs are
loving it.
“I very much cherish my

By Aaron Wallis
So, last Friday night in Jackson,
we had not just one, but
two, count ‘em, two art openings.
Ohh Yea! Whoooo! Gonna
look at some art boi, hells yea
son!
First “Redefining Space”
opened at the Art Association
loft gallery. Curated by Cindy
George with assistance from
photographer John Stewart,
the exhibition sought to incorporate
the architecture, interior
and exterior space of the
gallery into art.
Now that’s nothing new if we
lived in Brooklyn, but this is
Jackson and a show that goes
beyond framing the art and
hanging it on a white wall is
something out of the ordinary.
Two-dimensional work was

Imagine that? The inaugural
exhibition featured
photographs by Daryl Miller

Some of you may know him as
Benji Person or just plain
Ruckus. My best guess is that
the artist has added an article
to the front of his name in
preparation for a new MTV 2

have dinner with friends at
Thai Me Up, a kick ass brewery.
Coincidently, the bathrooms
are covered wall-to-wall with
paintings by The Ruckus that
succeed in redefining the bathroom
space. The men’s room
even has a non-functioning
glory hole seamlessly incorporated
into the mural. Some of
my loyal readers may not be familiar

Trio’s flatiron pan-seared lamb t-bones.
By Tyler Alford
Gourmand. Epicure.
Gluton. Gastronome. Foodie.
The list of terms for a food
columnist is endless. Now (at
least here in Jackson) we can
add one more: Crumbs. This
column has a big appetite and
highly regarded print space to
fill. JH Weekly takes a valuable
approach to reminding Jackson
Hole of its community, its happenings,
and its hidden treasures
while offering freelancers
like yours truly a place to pen.
In keeping with these respects, I
hereby enter the first of “Slim’s
Pickins.” A column not of excess
and pompousness, but of
shared enjoyment and atmosphere;
with the occasional unforeseen
food coma.
An upbringing in the South
taught me two things about
dining: everything tastes better
with butter and sugar; and food
is meant for comfort. With this
in mind, I went with a group of
five to what is quickly becoming
a staple for contemporary
but relaxing atmosphere and
food: Trio. Crumbs himself
joined us to offer a little coaching
for this first installment.
Located close enough to the
major attractions in East Jackson,
Trio’s Pennsylvania Ave.
real estate (on the Monopoly
board, that is) draws heavily
from Town Square’s foot traffic
and Center for the Arts eventgoers.
The warm and not-overly
decorated dining area is complimented
by soft yellow light-
A new foodie’s first supper
ing and a higher-than-average
(read: cozy) thermostat.
The two other men in our
group would have normally
found a place at the long dining
bar looking into the open-air
kitchen and brick oven, but we
sat as a group in a corner close
to the bar service area with an
excellent view of the busy, but
focused action of the restaurant.
After a round of cocktails including
a Jamaican Mule (a
variation of the revived Moscow
Mule) we shared an order of

juices and flavor
of the meat.
waffle fries with bleu cheese,
black pepper and scallions. An
appetizer I had forgotten to
crave, the first layer makes
quick work as finger food with
crispy fries and just the right
amount of cheese, but reaching
the bottom of the bowl where
the cheese has seeped through
the waffle holes, utensils are required,
depending on your
company.
Celebrating the last night of a
good friend’s visit, we all ordered
heavily from beets salad
to my choice, duck prosciutto.
The dish was handsomely presented
with a bed of arugula
and cured duck meat around
the edge that was full and fla-
MATTHEW IRWIN
vorful. The amount of greens
on the plate, however, detracted
from the cured meat, but I only
noticed because the duck was
so good, and who wouldn’t
want more. Shortly after finishing,
chef/owner Will Bradoff
joined us for a moment. He politely
joked with another Spartanburg,
S.C. native before
returning to the kitchen.
As a main course, I chose the
flatiron pan-seared lamb tbones.
The meat was beautifully
seared, locking in all the
juices and flavor of the meat.
Served over a bed of artichoke
hearts, brussel sprouts and
mushrooms, the earthy vegetables
contrasted nicely with the
sweet gamey flesh of the New
Zealand-raised lamb. A simple
but elegant looking plate, the
dish was garnished with a single
line of whole grain mustard
sauce. Where as most chefs
might pour this directly over
the serving, it is much better as
an adornment and self-serve
portion.
We ordered a flight of
scotches for dessert, each requesting
and receiving our favorites
prepared our own
specific way, probably to the
annoyance of our server. We all
departed feeling nourished and
entertained by the chic space,
gracious host, experienced
service and excellent food that
make Trio an East Jackson
gem. JHW
Trio is located at 45 S. Glenwood.

ROB BREZSNEY’S
FREEWILL ASTROLOGY
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Sarah
Bernhardt (1844-1923) was called “the
most famous actress the world has ever
known.” She did a few films in the early
days of the cinema, but most of her work
was in the theater. At age 70, she played
the role of the 13-year-old Juliet in Shakespeare‘s
Romeo and Juliet. I commend her
on her refusal to act her age, and recommend
that you make a comparable effort
in the coming weeks. For example, if
you’re in your twenties, try something you
thought you wouldn’t do until you were at
a very ripe age. If you’re over 50, be 25
for a while. It’s an excellent time to do this
kind of time-traveling.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You
might have to use primitive means to
accomplish modern wonders. It may be
necessary to hearken back to what
worked in the past in order to serve the
brightest vision of the future. Take your
cue from Luis Soriano, a saintly teacher
who carries a library of 120 books on
the back of a donkey as he meanders
around the back country of Columbia,
helping poor kids learn how to read.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Humans
have been baking and eating bread for
at least 5,000 years. But it wasn’t until
the 20th century that anyone figured out
a fast and easy way to cut it into thin,
precise pieces. Then Otto Rohwedder,
who had been working on the project
for 16 years, produced a machine that
cut a loaf into individual slices. I bring
him to your attention, Gemini, because I
think you are in a phase of your life
when you could very possibly create an
innovation that would be as intimately
revolutionary as Rohwedder’s was for
the masses. In fact, why aren’t you
working on it right now?
CANCER (June 21-July 22): In order
to heal deep-seated problems, people
may need to engage in long-term psychotherapy,
patiently chipping away at
their mental blocks for many years. But
some lucky sufferers get their neuroses
zapped virtually overnight, either with
the help of a monumental event that
shocks them out of their malaise or
through the work of a brilliant healer
who uses a few strokes of kamikaze
compassion to creatively destroy their
deluded fixations. I think you’re now a
candidate for this type of correction,
Cancerian.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): To discover
the most useful truths, you will have to
peek behind the curtains and root around
to see what’s cloaked in the dark and
maybe even explore messes you’d rather
not touch. What complicates your task is
that the fake truths may be extra loud and
shiny, distracting you from the down and
dirty stuff with their relentless come-ons.
But I have confidence in your ability to
outmaneuver the propaganda, Leo. You
WEEK OF MARCH 10, 2010
shall know the hype, and knowing the
hype will set you free.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The evil
geniuses of the advertising industry are
hard at work in their labs dreaming up
seductive new mojo to artificially stimulate
your consumer lusts. Meanwhile,
the media’s relentless campaign to get
you to believe in debilitating fantasies
and divert you from doing what’s really
good for you has reached a fever pitch.
And here’s the triple whammy: Even
more than usual, some of your relatives
and cohorts are angling to convince you
that what pleases them is what pleases
you. So is there any hope that you will
be able to hone in on what truly excites
you? (It’s especially important that you
do so right now.) The answer, in my
opinion, is a qualified yes — IF you’re
willing to conduct intensive research into
the idiosyncratic secrets of what makes
you happy; and IF you’re not scared to
discover who you are when you’re
turned on all the way.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): If you
were living in Greece in the fifth century
B.C., I’d urge you to bathe in the healing
spring at the shrine of Asklepios in
Athens. If you were in 19th-century
France, I’d recommend that you trek to
the sacred shrine at Lourdes — being
sure to crawl the last half-mile on your
hands and knees — and sip from the
curative waters there. But since you’re a
busy 21st-century sophisticate and may
have a limited belief in miracles, I’ll simply
suggest that you visit the most interesting
tree you know and spill a bottle
of pristine water over your head as you
confess your sins and ask the sky for forgiveness
and sing songs that purify you
to the bone.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): It’s
quite possible that the nature of consciousness
is in the midst of a fundamental
transformation. The human race
seems to be getting more empathetic,
more compassionate, and even more
psychic. Many of us are having experiences
that were previously thought to be
the province of mystics, such as epiphanies
that give us visceral perceptions of
the interconnectedness of all life. Even as
some traditional religions lose members
and devolve into cartoony fundamentalism,
there are ever-increasing numbers
of intelligent seekers who cultivate a
more discerning spiritual awareness outside
the decrepit frameworks. If you
haven’t been on this bandwagon, Scorpio,
now’s a good time to jump on. If
you’re already on board, get ready for an
accelerated ride.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):
This week you’ll be working overtime
while you sleep. Your dreaming mind
will be playing around with solutions to
your waking mind’s dilemmas. Your ally,
the wild conjurer in the ramshackle diamond-encrusted
sanctuary at the edge
of the deep dark forest, will be spinning
out medicine stories and rounding up
help for you. So of course you should
keep a pen and notebook by your bed
to record the dreams that come. I suggest
that you also try to keep the first
part of your mornings free of busy work
so you can integrate the full impact of
the nights’ gifts. And don’t despair if
you can’t actually remember any of your
nocturnal adventures. Their tasty afterimages
will remain with you subliminally,
giving your logical mind an
intuitive edge.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):
There’ll be an abundance of unambiguous
choices for you to make in the coming
days. I’m not implying they’ll be
easy, just that the different alternatives
will be clearly delineated. To get you
warmed up for your hopefully crisp decisions,
I’ve compiled a a few exercises.
Pick one of each of these pairs: 1. exacting
homework or free-form research; 2.
pitiless logic or generous fantasies; 3.
precise and disciplined communication
or heedless self-expression; 4. grazing
like a contented sheep or rambling like
a restless mountain goat.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):
Among Eastern religions, some traditions
preach the value of getting rid of
your desires. To be righteously attuned
to current cosmic rhythms, however, I
think you should rebel against that
ideal, and instead cultivate a whole host
of excellent desires. Use your imagination,
please! Here are a few I highly recommend:
a desire for a revelation or
experience that will steer you away
from becoming more like a machine; a
desire for a fresh blast of purity from a
primal source; a desire for an imaginary
pet snake that teaches you how to be
more playful with your libidinous energy;
and a desire for a jolt of unexpected
beauty that reminds you how
important it is to always keep a part of
your mind untamed.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I used
to have an acupuncturist who, as she
poked me with needles, liked to talk
about her understanding of Chinese
medicine. Once she told me that every
human being needs a “heart protector,”
which is a body function that’s “like a
holy warrior who serves as the queen’s
devoted ally.” But the heart protector is
not something you’re born with. You’ve
got to grow it by building your fortitude
and taking care of your body. I think the
heart protector will be an apt metaphor
for you to play with in the coming
weeks, Pisces. It’s going to be an excellent
time for you to cultivate any part of
your life that gives your heart joy,
strength, peace, and integrity.
