Excellent - Red, Mattitude and I will be there as well.
Clocktower Friday 5pm?
word from the turnout is that HWY 108 will open over Sonora Pass on Wednesday April 24
Unadvertised special for Mammoth.
Pass holders from other resorts get $49 lift tickets until the end of the season. I just spent the last 3 days closing down the Canyon Lodge side of Mammoth taking advantage of this special. The people at the ticket kiosk didn't know about it. I asked them to call their boss and it was no problem. Excellent deal!!
I just got the $49 a day special I listed above. It's well past the end date but it's still available, it appears.

That's helpful. Thanks.
I know a lot of folks like Fort FKNA, but Krystal Kartwright wants to camp at the FS campground in town. We'll have Holy Mazurkiewicz (age 2) and his adults with us. Looking into Fri-Sun night reservations. Anyone else interested? We can get a couple sites. Might not even really need reservations. We've never had a problem in the past.
Is Shady Rest even open then? Another option if it is not, a d you don't want to expose the little one to Ft FKNA, is the Mammoth RV park. They have tent sites, showers, pool, hot tub, et cetera.
Any word yet on the actually site for the fort this year? Things were so melted out there should be lots of options.
Shady Rest open this weekend. Krystal informs me that there are 74 sites available for that weekend.
We haz popup camper + extra cook gear for a dozen or three. We can't go hudge, but we can haz teh funz at Shady Rest.
That's cool you and your gang are going to make it Mike.Quote:

It seems the flights to mammoth are all out of somewhere other than sf. I could go with splat by flying into reno but that does seem a bit out of the way especially when pressed for time to catch my flight on the way home.

Why not camp at FKNA (wherever it is this year)? It's spread out, plenty of room for you to find some quiet space for the little one to sleep peacefully. And no campsite fees.Quote:

Do you mean close to town, or close together (i.e. not much space)?Quote:

(Hey,
Cinders & me, and Tini are looking for Lodging. From Thurs night until Monday (or maybe Sunday).
Prolly try & get into Mtn Shadows (Maggot Central).
But, before we book anything wondered if you MammyMaggots might have any suggestions/advice/hook ups?
I'm looking on VRBO. Anywhere else?
Any place close by Roberto's/Vons/Moody's would be cool.
Cheap or free would be mighty fine.
(Thanks for your offer MoGB, PM sent).
Paging aSandyGal...?)
ElChup is right. Ft FKNA is actually pretty mellow, really. But no bathrooms of course...
Hey Lego, wanna start a rollcall?
Stunt, sorry we can't offer a ride. 3 of us in a Prius+gear. Try hitting up SuPu (if he's going).
Man I am missing the years we'd come down with Sinecure.
(He's got a "real job" these days)
There's tons of SF hookup flights from Reno. It's a 3 hour drive to Mammoth from Reno and it's 3 or more from Reno to SFO, prolly 4 hrs plus. It's a 7 hour drive from SFO to Mammoth. It's a five hour drive from LA, maybe a little more from LAX. It's a 45 minute flight from SFO to RNO. There's some perspective.Quote:

Added a roll call.
Looks like we will be in Mtn Shadows party central @ asandygals studio. Hopefully the baby monitor reaches out to the hot tub and bbqs.
Stunts - hope you plan to be here by the 2nd.
Looks like a great crew! Bbqing in lot 2 Saturday afternoon. Bring your beach chairs.
Groovy! ("it's a nice place", "yeah a very nice place, and they play good music") :confused: :biggrin:Quote:

We got hooked up with a place to stay by MammothDave, up there on Forest Trail, behind the Fire Station.
:yourock: FKNA! Whadda cool dude!
BUT we will be poaching your Hot Tub there on a semi regular basis (I hope)
Just need to find out if it's the one with the showers attached that's open?
Boo!
Just noticed on your Roll Call that there is no mention of aSandyGal & DarkMark. What's up with that? Are thay not coming? She was crowned Queen of The Mini not that long ago. Has to be there. Hell, even YogaChik is expected this time.
Any chance of Bodhi showing up do you think?
Sinecure was saying to Cinders that he might try and come down on the Saturday...
Spats? Dude, wouldn't be the same without you.
Schralp you gotta get some more, mang.
CDLV? Is that dude still around?
Who else is conspicuous by their absence?????????
Kuba? MachLooney (both out of state these days, I believe), MTT? Nevada is not "really" out of state Mammoth wise.Quote:

Which one of you is the smoker from 2/3 years ago. Watched you fucking wrestle around and throw a shitpile of cig butts that landed on us at the mill beach. Then that same stain was at grumpys and blew chow all over the lot? Might have been a lurker but my buddy is on the hunt for that guy-fair warning.
Hi all! Looks like we'll be there late Friday night through early Monday.
Turx, Forest Trail and the post office is just a quick little walk away from Maggot Shadows :)
Looking forward to seeing long-lost friends :) (and their babes)...
dammit! fooled by the new math and i somehow counted weekends wrong so i do have the kids next weekend.
good thing he doesn't hold a grudge. :rolleyes:Quote:

Our plan is to ski Sonora Pass Friday, then roll to Shady Rest. Campfire and beers Friday night. PM for site #. We'll visit Fort FKNA Saturday night. Hoping to ski Mammoth Sat and Sun, but it might only be one or the other. Sonora Pass or something else quick and easy Monday on the way home.
What, again (again, again, again)? ElleBee you are such a tease!! :tongue:Quote:

Cinders & me are big fans of Roberto's. We will be heading there on Fri, or Sat night I expect...
If Tini is up for it (she's driving), us 3 might join you for a quickie (Boot-Up) on the way home.
Did Dunderberg with Sinecure, on the way back on a Monday, a few Mini's ago.
Turx
Give me a call. Have Tini give me a call too. Lost her #
Tora Tora Tora
Otto jr and sr.
In!
Kusalas for demo and Patron for the asking, what could go wrong?
Anyone know where the fort is going to be this year? I've got swanky car camping stuff this time. And are we still meeting at Roberto's on Friday night?
Unfortunately, Mrs. C. and I are out for the mini. Too many things on the house to-do list.
