    Mt. Baldy, CA $150 unrestricted pass

    Sure sometimes it ain't so good but a trip report is the opposite of telling everybody to just stay home. You and I who don't post them come off as couch potatoes. You could lose a few pounds, kook....

    Mammoth Avalanche Video

    http://cbsloc.al/2Fjm2LB Reason #3 why it's a kook move to ask a lift operator "When?" They have no input, let them and patrol do their thing.

    Ikon pass to rival Vail's Epic pass...

    They changed the Ikon Base Pass -- now ya get unlimited Mammoth ski daze except Christmas, MLK, and Prez holiday periods for the $599, thanks to people like me who complained about how originally it was gonna cost ~$200 more than 17/18 for the only Mammoth season pass equivalent.

    Southern Idaho skiing

    Thanks for the report. The length is a plus cuz I will return to this video later after having already caught the highlights. Idaho is a great state for making small talk with strangers! Say your filling up at the pump and a local smiles while doing the same. As yer wondering what to chitchat...

    Mammoth, July 4-5, 2017

    Instead of MMSA paying what the land's worth, you get this very weird type of commerce that works out something like this... Pennies on the Dollar + Political Patronage and $25000/plate Campaign Events + Backroom Deal$ = Way less than the proper land valuation all added up Good for MMSA for...

    Mammoth, July 4-5, 2017

    It's not done. You're probably thinking of the legislation that was needed to allow the corporate welfare recipient to kick in some pennies (in addition to the worthless forest land elsewhere), in exchange for the valuable forest land around the Main Lodge. I believe that's done, but the swap...

    June Mt., Jan. 4, 2017

    Tony, I don't think the banks really made them close it, he just made that up. They did probably go over how stupid the air subsidies were, so he got rid of that and foisted it upon the taxpayers. James, schubwa lived in Mammoth when lapping June's Face required the crappy lift that's the only...

    Always go with a footbed other than stock. The boot manufacturers aren't gonna spend money making good footbeds since most skiers won't be using the stock ones anyway.

    Road to Provo rope drop at Snowbird

    Can someone explain if this is really just a powder day rope drop, cuz all those kooks are wearing racer bibs with numbers LOL. My bet is somebody at the Special Olympics decided there were so many entries they had to do a Chinese Downhill...

    Mammoth, April 26-27, 2016

    Thanks for the report, those Superpark features look nuts! See how in your photo there's a traverse track heading East? There's no need for that track except for skiers who rode up Chairs 12 and 13 and don't really know how easy it is to get back to 1 or G1. We can see that for the folks who...

    Inyokern Dining recs?

    Lotsa folks not only enjoy detail like that, but the certainty to be gained is kinda a simple pleasure too. He's figuring out those 5% error margins now so he won't need as many contingencies later. Speaking of simple, if you live in (I don't know) a house, it already has electricity...
