Hey everyone, it’s good to be back and making my first October turns at Mammoth since 2004! It’s been a killer morning and the skiing has exceeded my expectations. Crowds are way less than I expected and we have barely had to wait for the Gondi at mid chalet, sometimes walking right on. Possibly that may be due to the skis area formerly known as SV opening today as well with 8 chairs spinning. Left Reno just after 5:00 am and we were in the ch 2 lot just at it opened.
Ch 2 is open for access up only. No way to ski down.
Got to the top of Ch 2 and I took a quick pic of the top and hauled ass to mid chalet.
Did laps on both sides of Dave’s. Snow was a mix of everything but overall pretty fun.
Next run we skied the skiers left of Daves and then worked our way under Juevos. Snow was a mix of pow, wind buff and some slab. Fun.
My kid getting ready.
Next run off the Gondi we tucked it up to the top of ch 23. Wipe out 2 was super buff. Best run so far.
Some kook with big hair came flying past me in lower wipe out. I’m so much better than him.
Took a long lunch break and am heading back out. The shuttle line is huge, everyone’s leaving. Should be a good afternoon.
