Perfectly groomed




5th chair






This morning was magical. Nobody on the mountain, the wind was light, the sky was blue and the corduroy was perfect. We were in the 5th chair of the day.

Powder day

Saturday was a powder day. Mammoth had 18" overnight and nearly 5 feet this week. Even with the President's Day weekend crowd there were fresh tracks being laid down late in the afternoon.

Today we woke to blue skies and corduroy. Just polished off some bacon and eggs in the parking lot and now off to carve some tracks. Epic 11 continues...

Epic 11 Part A Begins





Our epic trip to Mammoth begins with an overnight at the WalMart parking lot in Ridgecrest CA. Apparently Wallymart encourages RV'ers to camp out in their lots. Weird marketing strategy but what the heck.
