i forgot to ask you : where do you car camp at? right at mammoth?
No, Mammoth doesn't allow overnight parking any longer. No overnight parking on city streets from Oct - May in town.
But a lot of gov forest land to camp at free, & shower passes at RV park & a few hotels (hot tub ).
It's not for everyone but I enjoy the alone time & absolutely beautiful views & peace & quiet.

sounds like fun to me! i bought a cheap slide in truck camper and insulated it to make it a 4 season camper. havent' tried it out in really cold weather yet but it can handle mid 20's.

I want to go to Mammoth, it looks awesome. All I have is a Winter Park pass, and to be honest I'm disappointed in the direction it's headed. It's just getting too crowded, and they charge for everything. Even parking is $15 during the week, either 20 or 25 on weekends. I'm cheap so I park across the street and walk. Weekends are just plain unbearable for me, lift lines can be up to 20 minutes. I have my own business from home so I usually sneak out and go on a Wednesday or thursday.

I took up xc skiing this year. It had been about 25 years or so since the last time I was on skis. I have been on regular touring skis all winter but yesterday a local shop gave me a pair of these to try out for a couple days.

I was on them for a few hours today. I probably covered 25 km or so. I doubt I will ever use regular xc skis again. These are great for uphill and downhill.

Cheers :)

Took a good digger yesterday afternoon, about a few hundred foot tomahawk / cartwheel / summersalt / slide, on Wipeout chute 1. Bruised & swollen, but not broken.
