For this weeks Show Us Your California contest by @socalsteemit I head up the 395 once again for another awesome snowboarding trip at...

Mammoth Mountain!!

It's been a pretty good winter season so far for me this year. As some of you might remember I started it out with a great weeklong trip to Mammoth in early January. After that I started making weekly day trips up to the resorts in Big Bear. And then last week my mom called me from Mammoth. She was supposed to be there with her friend, but for some reason her friend couldn't come. So I got lucky and she invited me up and I got to spend few more beautiful days on the mountain up there!

It was a short trip, but it was really awesome. We had great weather both days and we skied all over the mountain including a bunch of runs from the top! And hopefully winter can keep holding out a bit longer because we still have one more Mammoth trip planned coming up here soon!!

And so until next time...

I hope you have enjoyed this glimpse into
