sneak your self into the luggage, then sleep in the luggage and voila, you got yourself expense free travel and lodging during your stay in mammoth

you can catch a shuttle from reno for around $25 you just have to pan right cause it only goes a few days a week. lodging around that time is gonna be super expensive

Buy a 24-30 inch piece of cardboard and a black magic marker...
Write "KINDLY take me to mammoth"
Have an of sticky and 20 bucks to kick down for gas...walk from the airport to 395 (about 1/4 mile) site on the on-ramp with your skis and sign...
you should get a ride within 10 minutes!!
Camp at the hotsprings
Go to customer service at 10:30 in the morning the next day and tell them that someone stole your brandnew ski jacket/wallet and ID!! You 2-day lift ticket was on the jacket and your weekend is ruined...
Be convincing and "honest" they should hook you up
