Good Morning Skiers and Snowboarders!
Wow! Wow! Wow! 95 inches - nearly 8 feet in 30 hours........does that even happen? Well, it happens in Mammoth! We now have the best base depth in the U.S. with 10-12 feet of lots of fresh powder and some packed-powder and machine-groomed snow.
Currently the skies are crystal clear with breezy winds. It 25 degrees so bundle up. It should warm to the 30s by afternoon.
Today we are operating Broadway Express, Stump Alley Express, Roller Coaster, Thunder Bound, Chair 7, Chair 8, Gold Rush, Eagle Express, Canyon Express, Schoolyard Express, Chairs 20, 21, the Lower Panorama Gondola and the Village Gondola. We will update this report with the most current operation status.

i mainly want the experience. i couldnt think of anything better than spending the whole summer in America and getting paid an "allowence" for what i love most football, and coaching it. do that during the day and experience what the states has offer (lady wise ) at night
