Snow??? Where do you live? I wish I could afford to migrate. My body doesn't like to operate in the cold :greenpbl:

So Idaho ... I think (hope) this is just an early oddity... It's mostly melted already, but - I'm not a winter outdoor person... just long enough to snap some pictures, and back inside to my guitar...

Winters are normally pretty long.....

You are just a few hours from snow, I ski mammoth all the time, tons of snow. Where else can you ski & surf?

Mammoth is a little over 6 hours away. Tahoe is a bit further than that. Locally we have Big Bear which has 2 resorts (Snow Summit and Bear Mountain), and Mountain High in Wrightwood.

Mt. Baldy is also close, but it takes a VERY good winter before it's worth going there.

But we won't be seeing snow for another 1.5-2 months and the resorts won't open for at least 2.

I know, I live in Oceanside thus 6.7 to 7 hrs to Mammoth to me but well worth the drive compared to skiing local mountains. I love the steeps & powder!

I would have agreed with you in the past, but not any longer. Mammoth is leaving its roots and trying to become the next Park City or Aspin.
