This is a great chance for any kids on the junior ski teams to come in and meet with their coaches and purchase or order their equipment well before the snow flies. We offer discounts through out the store on all ski related purchases too!Don’t forget to ask about our Junior Trade in program where a portion of returned equipment is credited back to new ski and boot purchases. and as always bring in their old custom  SuperFeet

Just got back in from an incredible morning over at Convict Lake on one of our new stand up paddleboard rentals. Nothing like experiencing the serenity of  an early morning paddle across the lake without a breath of wind. If you haven’t tried it yet – you are missing out! Best places so far are Convict Lake, Horseshoe, Silver Lake , Grant Lake and June Lake. Easy access, sandy beach entry and little boat traffic. Do yourself a favor and set aside some time this summer to try out this new sport..

Spring has been unseasonably cool which has most of us pining for warm-consistently warm-weather. But for winter diehards the conditions have been remarkably conducive to skiing. May 11th dawned with a winter storm creeping eastward after dropping a foot and a half on the mountain leaving spotty clouds and morning temperatures in the low 20’s. Skiing was UN-believable…knee deep or better in the Paranoids and consistent into Saint Anton. Run after run. Pure winter snow until late in the afternoon. Upper Dry Creek, Dave’s, Climax…whew! How many ski areas can claim great powder days in May? Only one that I can think of…Mammoth Mountain!

Just when we pulled out the sunscreen, another storm is approaching us on Tuesday with potential of 1-2 feet! But rest assured we will be returning to warm temps and great spring skiing by Thursday. We can’t remember when Mammoth had as much snow as it does right now at this time of year. Skiing until July 4th?? with such a  great snowpack.
