Mammoth January '07

Our traditional yearly pilgrimage to Mammoth. This was a pretty unusual year for snow in Mammoth. There was basically no snow at all on the side of the road the entire drive up, and large brown patches on the top. We were dodging small obstacles on just about every run. Still, it was a fun trip as always. Making the trek this year were Dave, Sarah, Justin, Jonathan and Joylyn.
