Sorry, trip is now full

However, please feel free to sign up on the waiting list in case somone cancels.

Join me for a for a weekend trip to Mammoth, my favorite ski resort in California. Mammoth is much larger than any local resort and large enough that you can always find areas that are less crowded, which means more skiing and less waiting in line. It offers great runs for skiers and boarders of all ability levels and there is plenty to do in town as well.

The Plan:
We will carpool up to Mammoth Lakes Friday evening and return Sunday night. This will give us two whole fun-filled days of skiing/snowboarding. After skiing on Saturday we’ll drive up to Mono Lake and look at the amazing tufas (optional). After skiing on Sunday we’ll grab some dinner at a local restaurant (optional) and head home.

Accommodations:
I have reserved a condo in Mammoth Lakes which accommodates 10 people, centrally located in town. See booking description. It is relatively spacious at 1500 sqft, has two assigned parking spaces, and it offers access to sauna and spa as well. The condo provides the following sleeping arrangements:

- Master bedroom with a king size bed (not queen as stated in ad), full size closet, TV, and private bathroom.

- Second bedroom with a king size bed (not queen as stated in ad).

- 4 twin size beds (no bunks) on the loft.

- 1 queen size inflatable mattress with linens included (to be provided).

- A large sofa (see picture, bring your own linens/blanket/sleeping bag). You may also bring your own inflatable mattress if you prefer.

NOTE:
Everyone is on the waiting list initially until I have received a check for the desired sleeping option you prefer. When you sign up on the waiting list, I will email you the address to send the check to, provided there are still spots available. If I cannot accommodate you the check will be returned. Only sign up on the waiting list if you are sure you want to come and ready to send the check.

Cancellation & Refund:
If you cancel, there is no refund unless there are someone else willing to take your spot (it has to be paid or it comes out of my pocket). I'll do what I can though to find someone else.

Equipment Rental:
Click here for Mammoth resort rental. There are plenty of rental places in town as well. At Sport Chalet you get skis, boots, and poles for $25 for the first day and $18 for the second day and you can pick it up on Friday and drop it off on Monday at no extra charge.

Carpooling:
As parking is very limited in the area and we only have two spots reserved for the condo we need to carpool as much as possible. The best option would be if we could fit everyone in two cars. Anyone with SUVs? Chains might be necessary as well. We'll discuss the options once it is clear who is coming and what vehicles we have available.

Food etc.:
The condo has a full kitchen so feel free to bring anything you like to prepare. I am open to suggestions. We may order in, go out to eat, have a dinner party. Anything you guys would like. Feel free to discuss any ideas below.

Also, Please Note:
- No smoking in condo or on balcony.
- Quiet time is 10 PM.
- Check out is at noon Sunday.

IMPORTANT:
Skiing and snowboarding are inherently risky sports. As event organizers we assume absolutely no responsibility for you or your equipment. We are simply "ski-buddies", nothing more. If you choose to participate you assume all risk involved. Also:

- Helmet is recommended, especially for more advanced skiing/boarding.
- Don’t forget sunscreen. You burn fast in the snow.
- If you have two-way radios, bring them.
