Not sure if you can buy this where your coming from, but If you have a car, get a good ice scraper for your windshield. And make time to warm up your car for 5-10 minutes in the morning while you scrape.

Also get something to push snow off your car. Don’t be a noob and drive around with a foot of snow on your roof. It’s extremely dangerous for you (if it slides forward over your windshield when you brake) and for anyone driving behind you.

Something like this has really made the process easy for me, since I can push and pull the snow instead of just brush it sideways like with most snow brushes:

Sorry man, hope it turns up for you.

Obviously if they're determined it'll still be gone, but it's at least some sort of deterrent

sleeping pad (very essential), sleeping bag. The sleeping bag is not ATSM certified. Additionally you can add a sleeping bag liner to increase warmth or a down blanket on top but I never needed any of these most nights. Unless it was 10 below I usually keep the bag unzipped. These things are pretty large. so they will take up trunk space.

Sunday looks great, Saturday maybe dealing with flat-ish light. Hard to tell. Barring some amazing multi-foot drop, we're in spring conditions now. All about letting the sun warm and soften the snow, otherwise it's tough as nails.

So yeah, Sunday. Saturday will be hard and fast groomers. The 1-3" Friday night is just enough to trick you into thinking there's soft snow and cover up the gnarly shit.

This forecast is garbage. I like wunderground, make sure you have the station set for the altitude you care about.

I guess what it depends what you consider "long", but especially for the more popular blue runs like broadway you can end up waiting ~20 minutes. June Mountain, 20 minutes north, is basically always 1/2 to 1/3 of Mammoth's time.

You can find places with smaller lines if you stay near the top, mid mountain, etc. Get away from the lodges because the lines are the busiest there.

Here's a cheap (lol) place I found that's a 5 minute walk to the village. Probably up/down a hill, but there you go. No experience with this particular unit, I have no relation to anyone involved, etc.

The 2007 Mammoth Master Plan included 17 lift additions or replacements. Most upgrades were planned for improving pre-existing lifts and not expanding terrain. A turning surface lift at the top of 9 will provide easier access to the chutes, but I hypothesize the other lifts are higher priorities for the mountain.

That's what I'm thinking. Took this earlier in the year, and the area skiers left is now filled in. You could easily go further left, but it's blatant that it's a cliff line. So I assumed it was more likely a rock scramble leading to a fall.
