What's It Like Up On Mammoth Mountain?

12-10-08

Jamie and I have officially been up on Mammoth Mountain a few times this season. What's it like? AWESOME! Jamie likes to snowboard but I prefer skiing. However you choose to get down the slopes the outcome is the same...Fun, fun, fun.

If you have kids make sure that you take them skiing/snowboarding in Mammoth. The mountain is so gigantic which makes for more runs with less people on them. Teach them yourselves or enroll them into the great ski/snowboard school that Mammoth offers. I can tell you first hand that all of the instructors are fantastic and really work with each individual child. Mammoth Mountain is truly the only one of its kind in California.

The current chairs operating are: Broadway Express, Stump Alley Express, Face Lift Express, Thunder Bound Express, Gold Rush Express, Roller Coaster Express, Discovery Chair, Chair 5, Chair 12, Chair 23 and both the Upper and Lower Panorama Gondolas.  Main Park, Forest Trail Park and Disco Park are all open with a variety of rails, boxes, jibs and jumps.

We are all eagerly awaiting the predicted snowfall for this coming weekend! Although Mammoth has not had a good dumping in awhile they are still able to continue making snow due to the low tempuratures at night. On that note...Let's all THINK SNOW!!!
