So I've got a few days off, and I was supposed to go to Utah, but it ain't gonna happen. I was thinking of heading to Mammoth and Tahoe for a day or three. Anyone gonna be around?

is it worth it going up on a weekend day? or just too crowded. we can all get up there during the week.Quote:

I will be from time to time tue-thu (non holiday) when I can get the $39 student ticket. Otherwise its just too expensive (unless you can get me a hookup :wink: ).Quote:

I'll be at Alpine all the time. Any mags there Sunday, Monday, Tuesday look out for me in a red Moonstone jacket, white pants, silver green Giro lid, and some Spatulas.
I'll make it there for sure to ride with you guys, its just that:Quote:

No pass at squaw
My house is in SLT
Got a cheap $299 pass at KW
I live in SF where I pay up my asshole for rent every month...
...that probably sums it up.
No mini for me, so I'll definitely be around. I've missed the huge Xmas/New Year's storms the past two years and there's no fucking way in hell I'm going to miss out IF they hit again this year. I already told my family I'm flying into LA Christmas morning and leaving Christmas night.
In other words, it's gonna dump 10 feet on Christmas Eve and then all melt out Christmas Day. :(
Speaking of which, Lane - I'm sorry I didn't get back to you on that pm invite. And yes, I think you and Cody are the only maggots at Squaw (besides the Gaffney bros, who surface from time to time, and Shane, who's been derelict of maggotdom for an extended duration).Quote:

I'll be in Mam next wknd.
hey chili, looks like i am skipping tomorrow - this storm looks beat: a few inches at best. however, if this second storm predicted for Tues 1) holds together, and 2) temps/snow levels do not rise too high (predecting warmer storm w/snow level around 6k :mad: ), then i will be @ Alpine Wed morning first chair to get the goods....
basically, i have become a snow snob in my older and wiser yrs: less that '10 new, ain't worth the trip to the hill :D
squawllywood all the wayQuote:
