Wow, a lot more pavement showing, since last videos . Amazing all those cars parked on road. Must be a very good ski season. I think spring 🤔 will find Mammoth yet. Still be careful. Love your dog 🐕, what a life. 😊
Thanks for the tour! Be safe...I wonder what Lake Sabrina outside of Bishop looks like. It's got to be amazing. I love the area. My dad used to live in Bishop when he was alive. Mr McCoy was one of his neighbors. Lots of amazing memories in the whole Eastern High Sierra area!
I / we have to get up to Mammoth Lakes just to experience that wonderful heavy snow fall on the ground before it melts and is gone. The Ritter range has to be spectacular with this snow, The spring melt will be spectacular down in Red's Meadows flowing down and to the west. This is something we will only see a few times or less in out lifetimes.
I spent part of my childhood in Mammoth. And was back to work at the lift in 1970. Then I got my draft letter. But I joined the Navy instead. So-- I appreciate the tour you just gave. And I appreciate that the titles were up long enough to read. Anyway, geographically I was lost. In addition to SO MUCH BUILDING I think a number of place names have changed. However what I could relate to was a heavy winter in Mammoth. Not quite as bad as this one, but our winters back then were no slouches either. So thanks for a good video.
So beautiful, last time I was up in Mammoth the fires were going sooo much smoke. A bummer we couldn’t do much but made the best of it anyway. Thank you for the ride!!
I think Rin is ready for green grass. So nice to see the road. That was neat seeing the person kite surfing (?). I hope you & your family & everyone are safe from potential flooding when this all starts to melt. So much hard labor has gone into clearing roofs from homes to businesses, & that many more need to be done. Never ending.
I can't believe how fast they managed to clear the highway after all that snow. Nice driving! I enjoyed the ride! Nice to see Rin living her best life everyday 😀
I didn't see any Country & Western music performers.😊😉😁 This is the first video you've created that shows parts of town & open roads. After seeing the price you paid for fuel, I'm going to make sure I don't need any gas during my visit, color me "thrifty". I've also decided to plan my visit AFTER the ski season has closed so I don't have to deal with all the traffic. Convict Lake will be included in my itinerary. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada
Nice tour - appreciate it at those godawful diesel prices. Things seem to be looking a lot better up there. Had no idea there were so many avid skiers!! Kind of crazy but then that’s good business for a lot of folks.
Glad you got some sunshine 🌞 and the roads are much better than a few days ago! I hope that means some rest for you! We've got another storm ahead now week and I hope it's not too bad for you all up there! Great video! Thanks again for taking Us along for the ride. 🙏👍🫶 Bev Ann From San Diego California.
Most snow I've seen up there in ages - at least the sun was out! Diesel agree - insane but stupid CA. Love my TDI and the mileage - CA will never learn. Be safe y'all!
coming out sunday. cal trans said there is still chain controls for non rwd/fwd w/o snow tires but road looks dry.. haha liberty bar. saw a chain control sign as well.
Your diesel fuel cost darn near as much as race gas here in Lake Havasu! Glad to see some sunshine up there for you all, hope winter will be on its way out soon. We're still cold even down here in the AZ desert yet! Thanks for the video!
The governor tells us that we should be happy paying those prices. It won't be long, though. Gas powered cars will be illegal to sell in 12 short years in California.
When I was 5 years old in 1968 we used to go camping at Lake Havasu, when Bullhead city was basically a trailer park along the river! There was a little Marina by the airport we'd park in a cul-de-sac by the water .. I got up first one morning and walked out onto the little dock and watched my nightcrawler get inhaled by a Large Mouth Bass that's head was bigger than mine! Some old man gave me a dirty look like he'd been trying to catch that bass for years! It snapped the line!

This swarm of tourists from southern caliornia and the LA area are what keepsll Mammoth Lakes area alive. They are willing to paying maybe $300 or more per night for a weekend room in Mammoth. They will pay top dollar to ski the mountain they have dreamed about all the work week down south. They will spend top dollar for a great dinner out in Mammoth with drinks and tips. The next day it is breakfast and do it all over again. It is a huge influx of money into Mammoth Lakes after these huge storms. It should be a great spring for skiing and snowboarding into June and beyond. That is what I remember about northeast wisconsin after a heavy snow storm with the roads plowed the next day with warmer temps and lots of sunshine. The roadways dry very fast revealing a clear and dry roadway just in the summer. Clear and dry pavement is the best for winter travel up from Bishop to Mammoth Lakes and return for the safety and speed for all. These guys did a great job clearing the highways and roads in and near Mammoth Lakes for vehicle travel. These huge snow hills and piles can easily last into June or July with a little more snow fall. There is more snow coming this next week.
The state, county and city did a great job keeping hy 203 very wide and clear up to Mammoth Mountain. There is plenty of parking on the sides of the highway.
I'll bet it's nice to see some dry blacktop. That price of diesel is brutal. I thought $4.50 was high. We have a long winter but not the volume. Take care, Kevin
Hey you gotta nice big strong gas truck, and you've gotten around just fine. have you heard anything about the ev vehicles how they holding up this season?????
Hello from Wyoming, Michigan. A little history info. There was and maybe still is a town in New York State and Pennsylvania as that was or still named Wyoming in each state. People in Wyoming, Pennsylvania left there in the 1840's/1850's to this West Michigan area. They liked their prior town's name so they used it here as Wyoming Township. Later became the city of Wyoming, Michigan in 1959. So this city I live in wasn't named after the state of Wyoming. Now back to Mammoth Mountain Ski Resort/Mammoth Lakes area. Why is all those vehicles parked on both sides of the road from about 4:12 going forward in this video? Is there no parking where these lodges are? Are these day skiers/snowboarders that parked their vehicles on this road? Maybe they should invest in making parking garages where there these 3 story lodges are. I thought as a joke that every skier/snowboarder in the entire state of California is there at Mammoth Mountain Ski Resort!!! No wonder why this resort has 30 some lifts. What is yearlong residential population in Mammoth Lakes? In the ski season of late October to July, what does the population of Mammoth Lakes goes up to? Finally, I seen gasoline selling at $3:23 at Speedway the other day here in my city.
He can answer as a Mammoth resident, but as a So Cal resident, Mammoth is the best ski resort on the West Coast. Everybody from San Diego and LA goes to Mammoth. There are local resorts in LA but not on the level of Mammoth. Best terrain, snow, and no mountain driving. Mammoth is a year-round resort, and skiing will go on until the snow melts, which this year it might be year round. It's privately owned, so there's no State or National park leases that make Mammoth shut down. They also have downhill mountain bike trails in the summer. Also, Eastern Sierra is known for its trout fishing, and Mammoth is the epicenter because of all the accommodations, but there are campgrounds everywhere. The airport he was at in the beginning has direct flights from LA, Orange County, and San Diego, so that should tell you something. As far as the parking, it's always been like that. There are buses you can catch from in "town" to main lodge but there access to lifts from where you see the parking start at "The Mill". Mammoth is a world-class year-round resort!
Mammoth is a tourist town all year around with outdoors activities, fishing, camping, hiking, backpacking. The town has good sources to get money. Is one of the most beautiful places you can see in your life if you love Nature. Rivers and lakes surrounded by high peaks
I wish the best for people in the Sierra Mountain towns like the Lake Tahoe area and Mammoth Lakes area. I heard this before that folks from the S.F. area go skiing at the Lake Tahoe Resorts and L.A. and those folks go to Mammoth. I'm just an outsider of this area viewing and reading stories of people, and life out there in California, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Idaho and Montana.
So what exactly is it that you do for a living? Own a restaurant or lease a restaurant at the mountain? Like why do you just “drive in” instead of calling/FaceTime I don’t get it? Thanks and stay safe this week 20-30” snow coming,.
I am wondering how everyone is going to pay for all the snow services that have been provided to the town and individuals? The big machines down to the people with shovels are going to be paid for their time/fuel/maintenance. Are people going to have to take loans out? It is crazy and I feel for yourself and everyone in that area. The teams of snow removal people are doing unbelievable work same for the emergency services too.
At the six minute 14 second mark of this video you go blowing by a speed limit that says 30 mph. Looks like you’re doing about 50 miles an hour up the hill through there and you have run every red light and stop sign.
Buying gas or diesel in Mammoth is similar to buying a beer at a sporting event or concert. You'll pay whatever they're charging because you're a captive audience and don't have any other options.
I love ur channel but dont throw shade on the east coast like ya did in the beginning. A dodge diesel is horrible and we dont push EV . Plus diesel is only 4.49 a gallon. get urself a 6.7 liter motor.!!!!
Have you considered that people need the capabilities of a truck, and that the incremental cost of driving it around when it isn’t loaded doesn’t justify the costs of another vehicle? Have you considered that he works with multiple pieces of heavy equipment and that a car isn’t going to tow any of it? Have you thought that maybe the reason people don’t do things the way you do isn’t that they are stupid, but that not everyone’s life is exactly like yours?
I cleaned cabins at Tamarack Lodge in 1971. Didn’t have a car, and got a ride into Bishop if we wanted to see a movie. Hmmmm. Back when it was quiet and the air was clean. Unrecognizable and sad now. 🫤😔
Everyone pounds the thumbs up for a happy dog. 😂
Wow, a lot more pavement showing, since last videos . Amazing all those cars parked on road.

Hopefully, the crowds mean that everyone is making some money. The area has to pay for that added $$$$ cost of the snow removal this year

Rin is a Husky mix...Huskies prefer snow over grass.

it came down to to above 32 F for many days actually mud season with the sun high and no clouds ithappens realyy quick

They have snow mobile crossings all over the east coast in upstate New York! But the west coast has snow surfing!!!❤❤❤❤

0:11 Good way to get to the store in town!!!❤😂😂😂😂
Spring Break for many people mean ski/snow vacation time.
How’s your garage roof doing. Did you Dig out more of the snow from everywhere. Quite the endless job.
This reminds me of child labor of the 1980s. My dad would make us shovel the RV out, when you could setup your RV next to the Main Lodge.
thanx!
I'll bet it's nice to see some dry blacktop. That price of diesel is brutal. I thought $4.50 was high. We have a long winter but not the volume.

Hey you gotta nice big strong gas truck, and you've gotten around just fine. have you heard anything about the ev vehicles how they holding up this season?????
oops diesel ...
The amount of people there is astounding
Yeah, it sort of takes away from the experience. It takes a lot of money too. The guy kite skiing has found his way out of the chaos.
When do you think those monster snow drifts around your house will melt? This year or next year
I didn’t hear you blinker on when you turned naughty, naughty

Skiers and snowboarders from bay área go to Lake Tahoe area to ski. And for sure Tahoe is as crowded as Mammoth right now.

Yeah... looks kinda cold!🤷
It’s 179.9 per litre in Alberta
It was well over 9 bucks in LA at the highest. Even with the volune of fuel sold here, it was 1.79 during Trump at one point.
@@GT-mn3bx yea i remember paying 1.80 right before biden got in
Let that Cummins EAT!
I am wondering how everyone is going to pay for all the snow services that have been provided to the town and individuals?

WTF $6.79 for diesel that is insane
Now that you can no longer buy a gasoline generator or other equipment in CA. I wonder how the electric snowblowers are going to perform????
Yeah…it’s the Liberals answer to fix their calamity, ‘climate change’..
It was 9.39 in LA at one point. Gas was 8 19 at the same station.
@@4RXLA Terrible. Batteries die quick in the cold
Buying gas or diesel in Mammoth is similar to buying a beer at a sporting event or concert. You'll pay whatever they're charging because you're a captive audience and don't have any other options.
you have not done a video lately, hope you are ok.
great channel; suggestion: pan a little slower.
😁
laughing -- those skiers and boarders will not be deterred
Things are looking better. Maybe go skiing.
I see people's lack of parking skills are the same across the country- so much wasted parking space....
Making me dizzy......
Can’t wait till you get that new electric Ram and have it purring down the streets of mammoth in the future!!
Just kidding, great videos!
And why do all have a vehicle so big for is it used for towing work no just because you can well its just wasting money
I love ur channel but dont throw shade on the east coast like ya did in the beginning. A dodge diesel is horrible and we dont push EV . Plus diesel is only 4.49 a gallon. get urself a 6.7 liter motor.!!!!
have you thought of not driving gas guzzling trucks and switching to normal cars instead if you dont like how much it costs to fuel?
Have you considered that people need the capabilities of a truck, and that the incremental cost of driving it around when it isn’t loaded doesn’t justify the costs of another vehicle?
Have you considered that he works with multiple pieces of heavy equipment and that a car isn’t going to tow any of it?
Have you thought that maybe the reason people don’t do things the way you do isn’t that they are stupid, but that not everyone’s life is exactly like yours?
Your complaining about fuel bills shit Americans have it so easy Australian's to fill a same size truck $190 up to and over 200
I wonder how the deer and other wild animals survive in this snow,do the locals help them ,feed them , I wonder .
The deer have the option to move to lower elevations and probably did months ago. Squirrels, now that's different.
