The California adventure continues. From Squaw we headed down to Sacramento. The California Davies were as welcoming as ever, and with the gated driveway we were able to sleep in the most secure campsite of all. With the balmy 50 degree weather in Sacramento, we felt refreshed from the few days skiing in Squaw.
The drive to Mammoth was nice and slow. The best kind of driving we have done throughout this trip has been slow and not stressed. We drove through the farm lands of outer Sacramento, the lush forest of eastern California (northern Yosemite), and made our way into snowy Mammoth. Upon arrival they looked to have a decent amount of snow. We were able to plug in at Mammoth RV. The heat source was nice, because throughout our stay the wind was whipping. We used the first day to explore Mammoth. The city was not very organized, and it took many attempts to finally find the main lodge of Mammoth. That night it snowed between 6 inches and a foot. We opened the camper door in the morning to ankle deep snow. We were stoked. Our first significant snow fall of the season!
The next few days we skied, using both our days at Mammoth. Because Mammoth was so big, we were able to find untouched powder most of the time. Best skiing yet. Ron and Moxie were the highlight of the lodge, and the temperature was windy, but bearable. We found good bars, good powder, and were able to make the most of Mammoth. With a good Mammoth trip under our belts we were ready for the next adventure!
