I’m pretty sure I was skiing in Mammoth during one of those storms in ‘82. Was great. Fresh snow for days. Hardly anyone wanted to ski in that weather so no lines for the lift. I had my thermals and ski jumper and goggles of course. Had to buy one of those liquor store robbery masks but otherwise was great fun.
We were at borial in 82. Not far from cannibal (donner ) pass.
