I'm interested in an extra space if it is still available. PMs sent.

Your box is full. CCed the PM to yogachik.

I like the skier profile, but the boarder one isn't quite up to snuff.

Hey J - I guess you'll have to get a ride with Telenater now (if he's driving...). Lego and I are going to camp out in the back of his truck because A) I'm poor now and B) well, it gives us privacy, and I like being a dirty camp girl anyway.

Hey and isn't that guy frerad a Sac maggot? No one's ever met him........maybe he's going to the mini?

Another option - I drive my honda down there and you and nater can get rides with me, and we all bring tents and camp out. This is all yet to be determined.....

Who likes the idea of maggotizing a campsite? Should be pretty nice to sleep out that time of year. I think I know of a few spots that could be sweet.

**Spats** · 03-14-2005, 12:04 AM

Last year a group of us camped off the loop road, just a few miles from town. A lot of people also camp at the various hot springs, but that's a longer drive.

So is it gonna be Thursday thru Sunday? Those are exactly the days I work.

. If anyone arrives two days early or leaves a day (or so) late I'd be stoked to ski a backcountry peak with a Maggot or two. If you're up for an early start and lots of vert.

**Haus** · 03-14-2005, 04:08 AM

What's with all this stankin', hippy, campin' stuff? Why don't ya'll just sack up a few and go fractions on a condo, L.A. style?

If I'm able to make it, I'll probably be campin as well.........

Frehies -- Just cleaned out my PM box...sorry 'bout that.

A distinct possibility.

Thats actually Shaun White. I switched to B&W then inverted color. If you got a better one pm me.

**Ubersheist** · 03-14-2005, 02:02 PM

Divegirl - I don't think that dude Frerad has posted even once this season. He's drifted away...

I may get a non-maggot or two to go - a co-worker or possibly a gaper skiing nephyte friend out from the bay area. I dunno. No one's committed yet.

I dug the camping part, and had a blast doing it. My only concern is if some weather moves in...

Ty - didn't you just post that you're going to watch the Kirkwood Comps? Isn't that the same weekend as the Mammoth Mini weekend?

Mammoth Mini and Kirkwood IFSA comp are a month apart.

I don't have a better one, but I think that one would be better if it was all white.

Another question: how's the drive from Reno to Mammoth? Is it doable in three hours? Less?

Lessee - I'd say it's pretty doable, but only if you don't stop for nuthin', and you drive your car like it was stolen. It's 160-170 miles of driving with only minor amounts of curvy driving. A more realistic time would be 3 1/2 or more with a stop included.

we're making stickers?

if so, i'm submitting, i'll be damned if a non mammoth person designs it.

**tuffy109** · 03-15-2005, 07:15 PM

i better bow out now.

I'd say if your not towing a trailer you can do it in 3 hrs. We did it in 2.5 to Sonora pass last week, w/ a camper and 2 sleds on the trailer, read 55mph or so in CA. Tank up in Carson City, its cheaper. It's only 3 hrs, how often do you really need to stop to pee?
