Mammoth got a good splatter of snow this week. Enough to open the hill, top to bottom. It was the second earliest opening in the mountain’s history, too. Place was packed. When people heard free lift tickets they flocked. Yep, Mammoth slung out free lift tickets to anyone who showed up. Heard almost five thousand heads showed up. Half the Frends made it. Lots of gypsy vans and wandering wagons in the parking lot. Even the ski twirling Budweiser guy made it.
Chair 23 had a good stack of slush on it and you could ride from top to bottom, with a keen eye for rocks. The park crew also plopped a couple boxes in the park. Big ‘ol jib session went down. Place was slushy, but damn fun, warm and the best early season boarding I’ve seen in a while. Its not even Halloween yet people. It’s been warm though, hopefully this isn’t a tease and winter keeps rolling in. Better come up and get some while you can. Stay tuned for video from opening weekend.

Yeah man, f*ck anyone who snowboards elsewhere than in the western United States! Especially those assholes on the east coast. Im so mad that people over there can enjoy the same pleasures as us west coast bros! We need to end snowboarding in the East! AND EVERYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD!!!!
suck it bitch, you dumb son of bitch. There are plenty of sick terrain parks all over the north east and plenty of legit mountains. We realize that our mountains do not compare to yours out. He was simply stating that there are people shreddin on the east coast. Does that really anger you?
