thomas Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I will be up in Mammoth/June the coming weekend (thursday to sunday). I probably check out Mammoth on Friday morning, in case they groomed the cornice bowl and then head over to June. Is anybody elese of the usual crowd up there? - Thomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyj Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 Hey Thomas, I was up with the family Thurs through Sunday last week and had a geat time. On Sunday, I ran into Terry and Tim at June and rode with them for a couple of hours. The conditions were classic June. The snow was firm, hooking up, and groomed to perfection. Absolutly no crowds, about 42 degees, no wind and you could see for miles. We rode Materhorn, Shatts and caught Gunsmoke as good as it gets. Terry seems to know everyone at June, and we got word that jumps are being built on Gunsmoke this week. Anyway, I might be up thrus and friday, I'll let you know if I make it.

GC Hey Gary, We didn't end up over at June this past weekend but the backside of Mammoth was great on Sunday. Very grippy and wonderful carving. I am sad to hear the news on Gunsmoke. By far the best carving run on the mountain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyj Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 There's Terry literaly smokin it up. Tim, that little camera took pretty good pics, thanks for sending to the pictures of my daughter and I. And to Neil, I saw your car parked at the Manor, but missed you on the mountain. Not going to make it up this week. Will be up at the end of the following week for five days. Keep in touch. Until then. GC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Morales Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 Gunsmoke was perfect last weekend rode with Terry, Thomas,Tom, Tim. The T-Boys. The groom was perfect for testing my new 158 Madd,and 168 Swoard. Monday was empty as allways.Gunsmoke is still happening.Danny kass won silver so I hope they don't cater to his jumping needs.

nekdut Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Just got back from a 4 day weekend there. Crowds at Mammoth as expected. Deep pow on Sat. Was a bit soft and chunky, but I did my best to tear up gunsmoke today. Who was that on the Proton? Saw you making some nice big turns, but didn't have a chance to meet up. I'll be up next weekend as well and I hope gunsmoke will again be ours to trench up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Morales Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 I just got word that Gunsmoke has jumps.Also herd that June will be closed three days a week next year. Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekdut Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 RIP Gunsmoke. It was nice having use of you for a good part of the season. :) So do you guys use Lottie Johl/Rosa Mae as an alternative, or do you usually head to J7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Gunsmoke is over for the season huh?, got conflicting info last time I was up two weeks ago, I was told no jumps this year. :rolleyes: Bodie is a good alternate run and you can ride up J4. aloha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Morales Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Neil,Brian.Tim What runs do you guys like at Mammoth? Also they're talking about closing June three days aweek next season. Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekdut Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Neil,Brian.TimWhat runs do you guys like at Mammoth? Also they're talking about closing June three days aweek next season. Frank The backside is great actually, chairs 13/14. Few crowds, WIDE open. Some parts are nice and steep. Great place to bust out the big boards. It can be a little bit of a pain getting back there, but its worth it. Otherwise, Stump is alright, but can get crowded of course. Bridges over by chair 15 is a good newbie-carver run. Very few people go to that run, and the pitch is very even like gunsmoke, but a little less steep. Over by WH2, chair 8 has a few good runs to the right of the lift. Hully gully and runs around it do not get too crowded, and are usually well groomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 Frank/Ray Heading up 25th thru 29th, Frank sorry I did not get back to you about Mammoth but I recall riding chair 22 (far left side of the mt) there are some good runs. Have to check the trail map, email me. aloha Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
