wbtravis,
I forgot to mention I don't do winter in the Sierras unless it is in a condo at Mammouth,with skis on my feet, or the Tenaya Lodge in Fish Camp.Winter is for working out,golf and sitting in a lounge chair reading books at the beach.
BTW I had an excellent workout this AM at my gym and am actually looking forward to running the stadium stairs at my local jr. college tomorrow.Feels good to be getting in shape.
What a wuss!

It's really is cheap entertainment. Every training weekend, I get to see numerous accidents waiting to happen on Mts. Baldy, Badden-Powell and Icehouse Canyon...and unfortunately they sometime happen.
I'm a June Lake guy in the winter. Way too many people in Mammoth for my taste.
