Wow, didn't know that! Steven's is much better than Mt High, IMO.

You may be right, but it's not an easy drive if you live close to high haha.
I would really love to check out Steven's pass though. |

Yeah, I've been to Steven's and Crystal while I was visiting my friend in Seattle. They had a killer season this year to boot! I wouldn't mind going to High if it wasn't so crowded.

High is a fun little mt for park laps.
It really forced me to like park. Looks pretty nice, and the night riding pic looks like something from a Christmas card. It's smaller than Mammoth? Still looks fun.

I might go back to school and won't have time to go to Mammoth as much. I'm looking into getting a season pass at either Bear or Mt High, which should I get? This was my 2nd yr boarding, doing medium jumps now and just started to go over boxes. Mammoth costs a lot considering gas and lodging. Mt High and Bear, you can drive back and stay at home I'm assuming

Season pass at Mt High is cheaper and probably closer to you but if you're a weekend rider than it's always gonna be crowded. If you get a pass at Big Bear then you get to ride at Snow Summit and Big Bear but the pass is more expensive and the drive is a little farther. Both have parks but IMO, I'd choose Bear.

by express line do you mean singles line?
I wish they would've incorporated the helmet line this past season or consider for next.

^nope i meant the whole entire gate the line was packed ,the helmet line was the best thing until they got rid of it, one of the specific reasons why i like to ride nights.

I dunno how you guys do nights...it's too icy and choppy for me |

I really only go for nights during college night with friends
Not a huge fan of night sessions, but if it's the only time I can ride then, I might adjust. I enjoy the sun a little too much typical socal kid

I work during the day Monday-Friday. So nights and weekends are the only times I can go. And we all know how crowded it can get on the weekends. Every now and then I can get a nice session at night, but most of the time its cold and icy. Jumps and features have big holes in the landing from people landing in it all day. I prefer day use for sure.

Maybe I havent though this out completely but I wonder if this going to drive up prices for a pass at MH?
If you ride at SP or maybe even at SaT (not likely since it is limited to x10) cant you just buy a MH pass for cheaper even though youre a SP local. Or is that not possible or doesn't make sense? $600 (SP) vs $350-400 (MH) for a new pass. If i was a SP local I would buy the MH and ride that all season long and pocket the savings and sell the buddy pass for even more $ |

You could do that but remember that you need to take a photo @ Mt. High to get the season pass... that means a long ass drive or a flight... both of which cost a few hundred dollars

I don't plan on going until more of the hill opens up. Just not worth it with a 12" base and only a couple runs open.

Good point, I think it just depends what you're into.
Ive been starving to ride park so I should be there tomorrow or this weekend. Maybe even ski dazzle in LA |

with the past two days of rain in the mountains, ski dazzle is definitely the only cool snow event going on right now this weekend.

Went yesterday and it was wet and freezing... mainly cause I didn't think it was going to be that cold! Definitely not worth the drive from San Diego but riding for the first time this season felt great.

Today kind of sucked. The snow is melting and it's the beginning of the season. I hope they are able to makes some more snow in the next couple of days to build everything up again. They took out about half the features they had up and the two little jumps they had are now rollers. With a little help from the Pine Cone of Destiny I was still able to have a good time. All questions regarding the Pine Cone of Destiny will be ignored.

Bummer that Mt High is temporarily closed.
They may open up as soon as this weekend though with a possible storm rollling in Wednesday.

I think the forecast showed it was going to rain more than snow there. Hopefully it gets cold enough to open next weekend.

get chains my friend ,they can run high or cheap depending on brands and type of link and maintenance is a breeze...It's one of the best investments. and i think chains aren't required as of right now |

seeing where you're going is over-rated.... especially at Mt High where it takes less than a min to get down the mtn.

So i've been up there the past three days & nights...
Tuesday night... was pretty awesome! 5" of pow by 10pm... Your tracks would get covered up within 10 mins because of blowing snow. Wed MORNING Hwy 2 closed and there were only 3 rows of cars at west by 10am... conditions lasted until about 10:30 then it was all tracked out. Thurs.... roads all clear, hardly any snow in Wrightwood... mostly melted in town. The west resort is pretty good... but it's all groomed, don't expect anything more. |
