I'm going on a ski trip to Mammoth tomorrow, leaving from Santa Barbara at about 2pm. Normal route is 101 south to 128 east to 5 south to 14 north to 395 north to 203 west.

total distance: approx. 380 miles (or ~6 hours)


However, 101 and 150 (the alternate route) are both closed just south of Santa Barbara due to mudslides and flooding, so now we get to take a fun trip thru Bakersfield on our way to Mammoth. :rolleyes:

Check out this route we're gonna be taking:

101 north to Santa Maria
166 east from Santa Maria to Bakersfield
99 north to 58 east
58 east from Bakersfield to Mojave
14 north from Mojave to 395 north
395 north to 203 west

total distance: approx. 500 miles (or ~9 hours) :dead:


Wish me luck! :thumb:

I will reiterate:

I'm 30-45 mins from the local ski resort (Beaver Mountain...and I've heard all the puns :))

I'm 1.5 hours from the Park City and Salt Lake resorts (PC, DV, Alta, Brighton, Snowbird, etc)

I'm 2-2.5 hours from Jackson and Sun Valley

I win.

how long you going there for?
I'll be skiing Friday thru Monday with my school's ski and snowboard team (a drinking team with a skiing problem). The roads are supposed to be open by Monday, so our return journey should be relatively painless.
