I just came back from Mammoth last weekend and it's already time to hit the mtns again w/ all this rain from this whole week it's getting dumped on everywhere. I'm planning to go somewhere local since there is so much fresh powder.

i rather spend the extra hour to goto bear too but seeing that mt high received more snow this last storm than bear... it's hard to pass it up. plus milking the points pass... i haven't paid for a mthigh lift ticket since 05-06 season. i wish i could go this weekend...

If anyone is gonna go to Bear during a weekend day (sat/sun), I highly suggest you get there super early and get your tix! I was at Bear 2 weeks ago and lift tix were sold out by 9am. I had to park frikkin in the boonies and had to go on 2 cattle carts just to get to the main parking area. Hate those darn cattle carts! Mooooo!

that would suck if you paid 20 bucks for the vip parking and then find out lift tickets are sold out...

I went there last weekend. it sucked, traffic was horrible and you had to put chains/cables on your car. It was horrible because I swear those things ruins your car making horrible noises when you drive little above 30mph.

Thinking about going this Superbowl Sunday. Got invited to go to mtn high. Couple of my friends aren't into any of the teams playing. Weather shows scattered flurries on Sunday.

^ just hope that it's cold enough that it flurries rather than rains. boarding in the rain is no fun.

get there early too... i was at high last sat and i got there at 830 and was able to grab one of the last available parking spots. everybody else had to park on the street which requires an adventure pass... although barely anybody gets one. i left at 3pm and it took me nearly 2 hours to get back to the 15! i know people that left around 4ish that day and it took them over 3 hours just to get to the 15.
