Another week, another on snow demo. Rented a Prius to save on mileage expenses, and made some great time on less than $40 worth of gas. Impressive and the thing has some power. Saw all of the California retail heavyweights, and had some fun on the mountain at the same time.
Evan and I checked out the Mammoth Ski Museum Monday night, and let me tell you, there are some treasures in there. The New Yorker cover display was sick, they had an original painting by Ludwig Bemelman that was unreal.
Later that night we did dinner with the Active crew at Whiskey Creek, which, as expected, was entertaining to say the least. Thanks to Tall Todd and Brent for picking up the tab.Tuesday, Tern, Evan and I headed out to Chair 9 to do some laps, and took a little detour to a nice open corn field with a hike out through a housing development. The hike was'nt very pleasant with the 60+ degree temps, but it was a good little adventure. It's so different riding here than anywhere else. Pretty much it will dump in feet, never inches (check out the snowbanks in the collage), and then be followed by a solid 4-5 days of the best weather you've ever seen. A huge change from rain riding in Stratton.
