OT: Here's some insane skiing at Mammoth

[BW Lion]

Just a note... Mammoth has informed everyone as well that's its mostly wet cement snow not light fluffy powder. Still an incredible season so far for everyone out west. Hopefully this puts a large dent in the drought out west everywhere. Saw a atmospheric science professor on the news the other day who said it would take another 9 months of this type of rainfall to fill up Lake Mead to where it should be... Says how much of a drought they have had and not sure California could handle another 9 months of this type of rain/snow. Pebble Beach golf course is just destroyed from the ocean and rains.

The avalanches could be a problem in a few weeks. Depends on the cyclical day temps.

Not crazy expensive. Its a little difficult to get to, they have plenty of snow

I love Wolf Creek. My only gripe is it's a little small for a week long trip, particularly if the snow isn't good because without the Alberta chair Wolf doesn't have too much to offer. But it's one of the few remaining places that is still affordable.

Schweitzer is so underrated. Please keep it a secret.

Any insider tips? I really know very little about it and I'm on the fence between there and Whitefish. I don't know a whole lot about either.

I was going to suggest Whitefish or Grand Targhee. Grand Targhee is at 225 inches this season.

I'm saving a couple days at Targhee for my next Jackson Hole, which I'll be doing in the next 1-2 years. Jackson is another place that has exploded in price since the first time I went there many years ago but some in my group are antsy to get back there.

The locals seem to like Blueberry Hill when they can’t go to Alberta
