Make no mistake,it's not camping/fishing weather in Mammoth. A foot of fresh snow fell on the Eastern Sierra resort over the Memorial Holiday weekend.

Does this look like May to you?

TWS mascot numero uno, Hjalmar Hedman scores Mammoth amounts of pow over the weekend.

When they opened the top, the lines grew real fast.

Next time you feel guilty for wasting water when flushing the toilet or peeling potatoes under the faucet, try looking out for your automated sprinkler system instead.

Whaaaat, Hjalmar Hedman channels his inner Chris Roach.

Pierre Wikberg recommends, if you like living on the edge, to always keep your car keys and cell phone in an open pocket on a pow day. Adds to the excitement.

This was filmer Pierre Wikberg's first day on snow in North America for the season. Like everyone else, he was expecting to ride some slush on what was supposed to be the closing weekend at Mammoth.

Pierre Wikberg ... gettin' some!

It would obviously be a travesty for Mammoth to close with all this snow on the ground. Pierre is doing his best to shred it up.

30 degrees and snowing. Swede Pierre Wikberg in front of his American-made De'Ville.

There's still an opportunity to hit up send-its-ville at Mammoth.

A surprise ender! Hjalmar gets after a monoski bonk. Now get up to Mammoth and stop complaining about winter being over ...

ON THE COVER: Luca Debari and Marie-France Roy were out on the Conquihalla Pass in BC filming for The Shred Remains. Filmer Gary Pendygrasse's bro took them to this misty spot. The crew scoped out this "golf ball" feature and built it up, but then weather moved in. They came back a few days later with a fresh dumping of snow on it. Features like this with a landing are surprisingly hard to find. This was Debari's first hit of the day and Senior Photog Ashley Barker's first shot of the day. MORE INSIDE THIS ISSUE >>
