    June sucks. It's farther away and a lot smaller.

    A long time ago, Dave McCoy had the delusion of expanding both Mammoth and June to where they would become one huge resort. That would've been cool, but old man McCoy died this year at 104, so that dream is dead.

    You go further north, get off on the "Mammoth Scenic Loop", and go south. You pop out in the Mammoth Village.

    While this looks obvious on a map, it isn't obvious to most tourists because:

    1) It's further north, and you have to go back south, so tourists usually never reach it if they stop at Mammoth (or don't notice it if they're driving past Mammoth)

    2) The "Scenic Loop" thing is a misnomer. It's just forest, and many other parts of Mammoth are more scenic. Therefore, this isn't a popular route, even in the summer. It has zero word of mouth.

    3) Most people would assume it's not plowed in the winter. It is.

    It is unlikely the police would post anyone where it intersects 203, because there would be barely any cars coming that way, and especially not tourists.

    I guess to me there is just a lot of broad assumptions with your “facts” which is par for the course unfortunately.

    Why is it a given that all tourists are coming in from the south? Isn’t Yosemite north? I did a simple driving direction search from SF to Mammoth and the very first result was the exact backwoods you described.

    Also in your initial post you matter of fact stated there IS NOT a checkpoint on the NE side of Mammoth from this secret route. Then on your follow up reply you stated “it is unlikely”. I mean that’s Trump 101 though so I get that you don’t even know you’re doing it.

    And just to keep all my counter to you thoughts in one post, I LOL’ed earlier when you said something along the lines of “or find out WE already had it already”. Could you be hoping any fucking harder? You are already including yourself in a fictitious group.........

    I digress. I’ll go to sleep now. I won’t respond to your forthcoming follow up. I’d hate for you to accuse me of trolling you instead of you................. nvm, I don’t even have it in me tonight
    It's hilarious that we as a society think everyone can be a dr, a lawyer, an engineer. Some people are just fucking stupid. Why can't we just accept that?

    Yosemite is closed on that side until all of the snow melts, which usually happens in June.

    San Francisco people don't go to Mammoth during ski season that much because it's a pain in the ass -- both the 108 and 120 are closed for the winter. They go to Tahoe. Almost all of Mammoth's clientele comes from the south -- mainly the Los Angeles and San Diego areas.

    Great observations, as always.

    When people want tips about California ski resort towns, they tend to ask welching rent-a-cops from Kansas City.

While she doesn’t the TineVid-19, the risk of catching it at the hospital, which is in a major Western state city, is probably pretty high given how those places can accidentally spread germs despite isolation protocols they may practice there.

    Thank you in advance for sending your positive vibes towards her healthy and uncontaminated departure from that petris dish of an environment!
    I know I and others give you alot of shit, but I'm sincerely hoping for the best for your sister and your wellbeing. And yes, I did send prayers.

    Not sure if this was posted here yet, and I'm not going to dig through this huge thread to find out.

    Wanda the Fish Tank Cleaner Drinker, who supposedly took chloriquine fish tank additive with her husband (who then died) because "Trump said on TV it heals coronavirus", isn't what she seems.

    She's not an ignorant dolt who followed everything Trump said on TV, in a tragic and deadly misunderstanding. Instead, she seems like the Carole Baskin of Arizona.

    Information has been unearthed that:

    - She donated to the Hillary Clinton campaign in 2016

    - She bashed Trump many times on social media

    - She donated to a PAC which claimed to be a "pro-science resistance" to Trump

    - She had previously been accused of domestic violence against her husband

    - She had mentioned recently that she wanted to leave her husband


    Does this seem like a Trump-following lemming who, along with her husband, drank poison because they thought Trump told them to do so?

    Do you think someone donating to a "pro-science resistance to Trump" group would take medical advice from him?

    Or does this seem like a longtime Democrat and Trump-hater, who also hated her husband, who took the Carole Baskin way out of the marraige?

    You decide.

    https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ari...trump-democrat

    https://freebeacon.com/latest-news/w...cratic-causes/


    Laughably, the NBC News writer who implied she was a Trump supporter was confronted by Steven Crowder, and asked if she was aware the woman was actually a Democrat. The writer said she WAS aware when she wrote the story, but it "wasn't relevant"! What????

    LOL mainstream news

    No, politicizing is fine here, and in fact it's been half the thread.

    calling a science-ignorant ruling regime 'science ignorant' and then pointing out example after example along with a body count associated with these missteps isnt exactly politicizing given the context of this thread but i know youre not big on subtleties like that so moving on.


    interesting plan afoot to roll out antibody testing as a precurser to putting people back to work.

    i think thats some real high risk shit right there because at this point the assumption that antibodies prevent reinfection seems unfounded, sadly, but also it fails to account for the mutation delta breaking through an antibody resistance spectrum.

    Thx, all. She returned home yesterday and appears as healthy as ever again. Turns out that as she lost 50 pounds over the last 16 months or so due to diet and exercise, she should have tapered off the high blood pressure meds her doctor had put her on a few years before that some time after she had gained a lot of weight.

    Looks like staying on those meds dangerously lowered her blood pressure to the point where she started getting fainting spells, with the last one resulting in her falling backwards off the fireplace sill onto the living room floor. Fortunately, despite the fall causing a “orange-sized” welt to swell up on the back of her head and a few hours after the fall feeling nauseated and needing to throw up, which prompted her to accept being taken to the emergency room, the doctors found no skull fracture or imaging evidence of a concussion.

    Regarding her stay in the hospital while under observation: She did mention that is was very scary how she was isolated from everyone due to the hospital’s precautions against the risk of COVID-19. She was alone in a room and the nurses attending to her came in wearing personal protective outfits. She wasn’t at all worried about having or getting the coronavirus — she’s kind of like the anti-Druff about that risk — but that being isolated as such preyed upon her deep-seated emotional fears of not being worthy of acceptance by others. Fortunately, the worst of those feelings passed for her before the end of the first day in the hospital, and she is now back home and enjoying her new hot tub, which she bought with the proceeds of a jackpot win at a local casino earlier this year, and which was installed while she in the hospital.

    So, all in well again in her universe!

    Thanks again!

    He problem with June is that the best runs are the bottom of the mountain, and it rarely gets enough snow to be skiable. When it does it is pretty good, especially when the top of Mammoth is on wind hold. The rest of the mountain is super flat and boring.
