Katie and I have found our routine. We have breakfast downstairs at 8:30, coffee, granola for me with yogurt she has an English muffin with peanut butter. Our boots and skis are up on the mountain in a locker so we take the gondola up to pick them up.. on the slopes by 9:30 and we typically do 25-28 runs a day, 28,000 vertical feet thanks to ‘Ski Tracks’ app. With no new snow in weeks and warm temps we have been sticking to groomed runs for the most part but we have fun going to the bottom. It hasn’t been crowded at all with blue skies everyday. Usually lunch is water and an energy bar but today we had a treat of grilled cheese sandwiches on the back side of the mountain. We managed a few runs after lunch then stopped mid-mountain for a free wine tasting from Daou wineries, a cab and a red blend not bad! On down the mountain, changed at the Alpenhof Lodge and now at Shelter Distillery in the village for their happy hour ‘hazy IPA’. Have a date night tonight at Campo Restaurant then probably June Mountain tomorrow as it is the beginning of President’s weekend and we are expecting crowds at Mammoth tomorrow.
