We headed up to Mammoth for the long weekend. Crowds weren't too bad, but we stayed away from the tourist spots (went sledding at more of a local spot than an established ski hill*). They had one heck of a blizzard last week, followed by another 6-10 inches (not sure, exactly) Sunday night.
* start off not in the best of shape, drive from sea level to 8300 feet, climb up a very steep hill while you sink into snow up to your knees at every step... and don't die of a heart attack!!! I could have used a ski lift!!!
I'd attach some photos, but all my attachment uploads are failing?!?

I was there the weekend prior, wish I had gone for the holiday weekend just because of the amount of new snow that fell, but was blacked out and wanted to avoid the crowds. I love it up there. Going again late February probably.

Apparently you have to resize photos yourself to upload... which is really stupid in 2019 when there are server plugins that will resize uploads on the fly...
Here's Mammoth over the holiday weekend:

Sadly, no... it was a pretty family-focused trip and the roads we saw had just two options: clean & plowed or under feet of snow... which wouldn't really have worked for my 4Runner!

Ski trails? Lol.
People can't even drive through town right now. Not sure what beginner means but 31s and 33s aren't doing much in 7 feet of snow

All you need is a little bit of a trail to have fun.
@ daxone
I might drive up to BB this Saturday, check out Rim of the World near Fawskin.
Anyone else considering a day trip?
