Mammoth

On our way to Mammoth for a half day. We took the shuttle for the first time in 13 years of going to Mammoth. So easy! The boys had never snowboarded before and took to it instantly. Day two we went to June for an amazing day. Only five other people on the mountain all day (slightly more, but not much). Great snow and the boys were on all the intermediate runs so we had great fun skiing together. The sun was out and probably about 35 degrees. Perfect!
Friday morning we woke up to beautiful snow floating it's way to the ground only to be interrupted by a mama and baby bear scavenging for food. She must have known exactly where to find it because she went right over to the trash and opened the "bear proof" lid. She threw a bag of trash on the ground for junior then found pay dirt...a Cliff bar! She had it in her mouth with the label out like it was set up for a commercial. Very funny.

Watching Junior from the living room.
Definitely one of my favorite ski trips. Thank you God!
