Mammoth may not quite have the snow that Utah does right now but it is still super fun, especially for November. The coverage was thin but pretty good. They had some good obstacles and a few jumps set up. The mountain was open all the way to the top. Since it was one of the few places open in the US there were tons of heads out riding; both locals and people from outta town. If you get a chance, mow some lawns, get some friends, grab a sleeping bag and get up there.
If you happen to live in So Cal, your starting point may be the beach. A mere 6 or so hours gets you to Mammoth with 3100 acres, over 30 lifts, more parks than you can hope to master and all that good stuff
If you live in So Cal your drive will look kind of like this
Viva el Mammoth!

If you walk right outta the car, into Lakanuki and see Kimmy Fasani and Molly Aguirre then you know you are in the right spot. These are some of the rippingest, coolest girls on the planet
