Thread: Cinco de Maggo in Mammoth aka Romancing The Thaw

There might have even been siete or ocho, but a gaggle of mags still hoping to get their nickel's worth of winter happened to be around and coalesced for a few runs, so we got some pics. Top of the mountain was 22 degrees with a stiff wind that froze things like a tossled hairdo with cement gel, so we chased the thaw to find slushable carve whenever we could. Race runs were clear and fast for bomber gs turns when the slush got old. Beyond that, it was all about hangin' with mag friends on fairly gnarless terrain and having fun.

Our favorite Jersey mob consigliere Joey Bag O' Doughnuts...


Even MIA prisoner of the computer wars at work (he can't log on to TGR anymore) Gebster was around.



Surprise appearance by telemarktips.com superstar Big Tim slaying the slush vegan style...



Shaded to conceal his true identity, jla tests the thaw in the shade of teh trees.



Followed by Vets, who is in patch training for the summer.



And some geriatric fellow in a tux, who apparently thought Cinco de Maggo was a formal event.

You guys are just a bunch of old geezers!

I never thought I'd see a pic where BT looks small.

Looked super fun, you guys definitely know how to have a good time, right on.

Looks fun

Quite the crew there. Closing weekend should be fun

It's always a kick to ski with fellow mags. I've noticed that I can't ski Mammoth without bumping into a few. Must be the town and resort being so central to each other, even though most people come all the way from LA.

Closing day....sounds like a party is in order!

Awesome.

That big guy on the left in the top pic used to be p diddy's bodyguard.

Solid angulation and nice counter, great to see light between your legs, good tip-kissing stance, but damn we gotta do something about dem chicken wings!

I hope we make it to memorial weekend. Its been fricken warm out the past two days, and only gettin warmer (no freeze at night). So if you are coming, definately bring the bike. Lower MB trails will be open closing weekend.
