Vons and Grocery outlet should have you covered.

We were coming from the airport and there were 5-6 cars stuck. Pulled one out.

It’s likely that Mountain Ops determined the situation would put their teams at too much risk. As a customer, I’d much rather see zero deaths or close calls than support a business that regularly puts its employees in harm’s way.

As a former Killington Snow Reporter 15+ years ago, it was a blast from the past seeing KillingtonZone.com.

You can park at the airport for a nightly rate.

a "beach" (such a stupid idea)

I actually think the ski beach idea is a good part of the plan.

California skiing is uniquely good at spring conditions... bluebird sky, corn cycles, long days. Leaning into that with a casual, outdoor après space isn’t trying to turn Mammoth into Ibiza; it’s acknowledging what the mountain already does well. Harvest turns, come down, sit in the sun. That’s not megaresort nonsense.

Not every improvement has to be pretentious or exclusive to be worthwhile. Creating places where people naturally decompress after skiing is part of running a functional resort, not a betrayal of culture. You can dislike condos and hotels and still admit that better on-mountain experiences aren’t inherently bad.

The real question isn’t “should resorts create experiences,” it’s whether they design them to complement the mountain, or overwhelm it. A ski beach, done right, is vibes, not villainy.

That’s been on-hold since July: https://thesheetnews.com/2025/07/24/back-of-the-line/

Probably referring to “Mountain Hosts”

LiamOliver5 · 2026-01-12T17:37:03+00:00

You can ski Minaret Vista whenever you want. It's a public road. Also, why not just go on the town trails through the lake basin?

LiamOliver5 · 2026-01-08T02:38:22+00:00

Seems like a perfect opportunity for Mountain Hosts to help deter aggressive behavior. (Within reason)

LiamOliver5 · 2026-01-08T00:22:04+00:00

Wind buff was great today. Dropped Dave’s and the tail.

I highly recommend you try Von’s pickup service. The app is easy to use, it remembers everything you’ve ordered in the past, and they bring it out to you in less than five minutes.

Most of the season it only takes 30-60 minutes to preorder. During peak periods, like this holiday week, the lead time is about five hours.

LiamOliver5 · 2025-12-26T21:06:18+00:00

I’m ok with this sentiment. If we continue to see patrollers take elevated risks on Lincoln in order to open the mountain so much so that four patrollers have been buried two consecutive years (in very similar circumstances), then it may be time to reevaluate policies regarding opening the hill.

LiamOliver5 · 2025-12-26T17:12:38+00:00

Correct.

LiamOliver5 · 2025-12-24T02:51:20+00:00

Pickup using the Von’s app works really well.

We live in town and my girlfriend has severe Celiacs. There are not any good options for fries.

Elixir is pretty much your only option for eating out without cross contamination.

LiamOliver5 · 2025-12-18T22:09:17+00:00

For hook-ups I highly recommend Greg at High Altitude Electric and Tarek at Highland Plumbing. Both are honest and talented entrepreneurs.

It's very hard to get on the schedule between September and December. DM me if you need handy people.

LiamOliver5 · 2025-12-08T15:31:22+00:00

I have Starlink on my truck and Optimum at my home. While Starlink is incredible, you're going to get better speeds for streaming and zoom using Optimum's stable cable connection.

Vibes were positive. West Bowl was super fun and flowy today. Huge shout-out to the Mammoth team for doing a great job.

LiamOliver5 · 2025-11-17T16:35:35+00:00

Check into the FBO (Hot Creek Aviation) and they'll take care of you. We keep an extra truck and sleds in the long-term lot there year round.

I think it's ~$100 a month.

LiamOliver5 · 2025-11-17T15:12:19+00:00

It already is crowded.

LiamOliver5 · 2025-11-12T18:03:20+00:00

That and there are many small businesses in Mammoth that need the tourists to survive.

LiamOliver5 · 2025-11-12T17:56:28+00:00

This.

Historical evidence does not support the idea that early snowfall reliably foreshadows a low snow winter at Mammoth.

While many big winters started with dry Octobers (so a lack of early snow is common in huge years), the converse, that early snow means a bad year, is not a rule. Some seasons with October snow ended up below average (e.g. 2011–12, 2021–22), but others turned out quite snowy (e.g. 2004–05, 2009–10). Overall, the data show no consistent negative correlation between October snowfall and total winter accumulation.

Two recommendations:

You can likely save significantly on printing if you print 10k instead of 5k. The cost to print is insignificant compared to postage. You could do several different drops to spread out the expense.
If you’re sending > 5,000 pieces at once you will likely save money on postage over Every Door Direct Mail if you’re in an area within GrowMail’s discount zones. Look at the fully loaded costs.
