    Best groomer in the country is warm springs face SV. Any arguments and I need to see you ski because you probably can’t run an edge.

    Only skied both mountains a few times, but thought Ajax was in the conversation for running the groomer zoomers. SV wins on hot springs and top of Mountain food. Ajax wins on views. Skiing most anyplace, winning

    Thank you, the typical Mag does not usually admit to liking anything other than 55* triple black diamond chutes. The true aficionado also understands the beauty of the perfectly pitched groomer. Reminds me of the wise man who once said “America is all about speed. Hot, nasty, badass speed.”

Often I will do laps where I either take the gondi to Climax or Hangman's, then go to chair 23 for a noids lap which takes me back to the gondola. I could do that all day, and sometimes do. If you get the chance to hit the noids in powder that is a treat, but it gets such good windbuff that the area is usually fun. I spend maybe more time there than anywhere else at Mammoth. The noids don't usually bump up too badly, which is nice. Climax is good skier's right or skier's left.
    I love those big laps.

    It’s been many years for me, but my favorite mammoth “lap”:
    Climax to bottom of cornice to hair jump (or the little drop skier right) to 23 to whatever drop out or wipe out chute looks good to one of the noids (usually bias is p3) to main lodge.
