Longtime valley resident and ski instructor Rich Lee joined us to talk about what it was like when the Jackson Hole Ski School first started, his favorite memories working for his friend Pepi Stiegler, and why nobody would hire an instructor from the flatlands of Minnesota. Pepi Stiegler is an Olympic gold, silver, and bronze medalist in ski racing and started the Ski School here in Jackson.
There is a benefit called "I Ski with Pepi" to help Pepi Stiegler and his family cover the costs of medical care since he suffered an injury last Fall. That's on Friday, March 25th at 7:30pm at the Mangy Moose.
