Just go to Utah. They are getting snow this week. Last week I paid $25, $56, $65, $56 and $53 for tickets (use Liftopia) at Brianhead, Snowbird, Park City, Brighton and Snowbasin. Very competitive on ticket prices, cheaper lodging available. Pays for the gas difference.

Just got back from Utah. I did the math- it was only about $80 more expensive for a three day trip out there, including airfare and the more expensive alcohol.

PCMR tickets at costco are $68 each when you buy a 5 pack. canyons are $70. Solitude tickets were $65 at salty peaks. the cabins are much, much nicer for the same price. I paid $60 a night (along with 9 other people, of course) to stay in a brand new condo. $60 per night doesn't get you that in mammoth.

the best part? from Los angeles, it was 4.5 hours, door to door to get to the cabin up in Park city, and only 35 minutes of it is in the car. 5.5 hours to drive up to mammoth when you include bathroom breaks/stops, etc.

come on mammoth, try a little harder to keep your socal residents loyal. this isn't whining, i'm just pointing out how i'm using my voting dollars...

3 of 4 day Mammoth ticket - $69 each day.

BLAH, BLAH, BLAH...

Dude, no matter how much money and time you saved (which wasn’t much, if any), YOU HAD TO SKI IN UT. Mammoth could care less about your loyalty because it’s MAMMOTH and where else are you going to go, Utah, FKNA laughable.

But, you keep going out of state, more untracked BDE’s for me & my krew. And oh yeah, not sure if you noticed (probably not since you were in UT, HA-ha) the town is the busiest I have seen it in a while, money being made hand over fist, even without your loyalty.

You make it sound like the skiing in utah is terrible, but provide no explanation as to why. Are you under the impression they don't have very good mountains? Snowbird gets 500in a year, 100 more than mammoth.

oh, and spelling "crew" with a k? come on, "brah"

I think you have to be a surfer to get it.

I don't surf

Mammoth could care less about your loyalty...

I've come to realize this.

...and I wouldnt call Utah "laughable".

It would take a major savings for me to put up with the airport. I'm a little surprised that with airfare for 9 people you still came out "$80 more expensive" vs carpooling up to Mammoth.
