Ski resort receives 19 feet of powder in 10 days

If the old saying “no friends on a powder day” holds true, skiers at Sierra Nevada’s Mammoth Mountain have been pretty lonely all week.


By Friday, Mammoth Mountain, one of the largest ski resorts in California, recorded over 19 feet of new snow over a 10-day period.

The resort had to cut down its ski area substantially as its crews could not keep up with all the snow.

More than half of Mammoth Mountain’s average annual snowfall fell in the short 10-day period this month, giving it a snow base ranging between 12 feet and 22 feet.

In contrast, Big White saw about six inches of snow during the same period.
