I was up at the basin yesterday (and again tomorow) and while the skiing was damn good it's amazing the snow that melted this week. We are now pretty much down to intermediate terrain with very few bumps and just a couple short tree shots. I hoping to get in a day at Mammoth in a couple of weeks as I'll be staying in Tahoe for the week. Or I may just ski a couple more times this week and move on (except for a little b.c.)
If you don't want to drive 3 hours to Mammoth, you could always hike up Mt. Talloc. Should be lots of snow left up there.
Good point, I planned on doing that hike anyways. We are camping right near there @ fallen leaf lake. I think the trailhead is nearby the campground. I am bringing the dog (and g.f.) with me so we plan on hiking pretty much every day for ten days.
