That's interesting.... Any idea how a "friend" goes about using another "friend's" points?
Thanks

They said the MVP holder would have to make the reservation and give the MMSA rep their Pass # (or, I'm sure you could tell your friend your MVP # -- that is, depending how much you trust your friend ;) :D ).

This is probably off topic, so I apologise in advance.

I had a nice DVD from the travel agent about driving from LA International Airport to Mammoth - in 3 hours they said! Oops, California might be a tad bigger than they realised. So I'm looking into the LA-Mammoth flights on Horizon Airways and want a couple of days just to ski Mammoth on some '2 day for the price of 1' voucher . But how do you get to (in my case) Holiday Inn Express at Mammoth's town or to Heidelberg Inn at June Lake? The complimentary limo service from Mammoth Airport is to limited numbers of lodgings from the look of things. Is there a shuttle from the Mammoth airport to all lodgings? Is there car hire at the Mammoth Airport?

Thanks

Are these valid on all days including holidays or are there blackout dates?

Last year it was just weekdays. But then again, last year it wasn't a "point" system.

No more cards. I guess my collection is now a collectors item.

So is this deal on the pass 100%?? we can give discounts to friends 5 times?? per pass?? do we know the deal the people get with the pass?? also any word on mid week madness, in Jan???


I just want all my friends to be able to come up with out having to take out a small home loan to ski for a day, But then again it is not my fault they did not buy a season pass like the cool kids
I woke up today, It was all down hill from there

That's what I was thinking, :?: only one problem, :!: she is recovering from knee surgery and will not be able to ski until February at the earliest, maybe not until next season. So I don't think it would go over well. :doh:

I'm already in trouble for going skiing without her. :(

Works for me! (Now I just need to find an MVP friend with points)

Unless Mammoth does what they did last year and offer special pricng for certain times of the year. Good 7 days a week.
