DAY 1 - Though most of the snow has thawed in the village, plenty remains where it matters...on the slopes! I snap this panorama while waiting for the Red Line shuttle bus (Mammoth is the mountain on the far right)
Valerie gets up on "St Moritz"
On her toeside
Here she comes
Trying to stay up
And down she goes
We continue on to "Jill's Run"
Valerie stays on her heelside
View from "Jill's Run"
Valerie straps in atop Thunder Bound Express. We will not be entering Unbound...Mammoth's main terrain park
And she's off
"St Moritz" Panorama
Valerie re-hydrates at the bottom of Thunder Bound Express
This one's for you, Lori!
Valerie rides down "Mambo" on her heelside
She tries to link from heel to toeside...
...but goes back to her heelside
We reach the bottom of Stump Alley Express
Valerie straps in at the top of Stump Alley Express
Once again we head down "St Moritz"
I notice bald patches as McCoy Station comes into view
Valerie definitely favors her heelside
Valerie straps in before we head down "St Anton"
