Depends on what you are looking for, Togwotee offers a great all inclusive deal(meals, guides social hour). Lots of off trail and trails great for flatlanders. Rode out of lava Mnt and Togwotee last year 6 days and a total of 300 miles. 3400 miles in the truck but I can't wait to go back in 2012

tog is good depends on time of yr you want to go.we usually do rabbit ears for a new yrs trip because never let us down for snow. there is always http://www.burandtsbackcountryadventure.com/ his wife will pick you up at airport cook your meals and you can rent some turbos for a few days and have the bragging rights that go with that trip if you got the deep pockets

Togwotee. Do it up like "Rock stars". Fly in, limo (van) up to lodge, rent sleds, stay at the lodge, Ride with Carter (he likes neewbies) and take 842 pictures on first day. That's what I did, and now I go west 2-3 weeks a year, leaving behind the wife and young un's to fend for themselves. (they will survive without you). As far as price, well this is a big boy sport and pockets need be deep. Do it up the first trip and budget following trips from there on out. Remember the plastic in your wallet is just like little IOU's you will leave along the way. Hope this info helps out!!! And YeSSSS it is okay to Shop for Christmas and Birthday gifts in the Togwotee lodge gift shop. I do.

You better make sure you have a guide with you. I saw last year what happens to you when you try to go boondocking..... and that wasnt even deep snow...
