The 2007 Mammoth
ski season has apparently begun. Unlike recent years, this winter just
has not really been able to get it's act together, with no real dumps on the
hill. That was until February 10th this year when Mammoth received
it's first real dump. The base was able to build here and there for
the next week or so. On Thursday the 22nd Mammoth got another dump
that was looking to give to sunny skies, this is when we went up for some
turns. As far as epic conditions go, Saturday morning was good with
knee to the occasional waist high deep turns, but with the base lacking we
managed to find some painfully hidden rocks in the snow and although it was
great, it just didn't compare to the '06 winter, when it was difficult to
not have a powder run and rocks were just plain buried. Sunday turned
back to a storm riding day with very few lifts open and near white out
conditions. |
