Looks like they will be opening for passholders only for 1 more week. Even though there's no park it will be mad fun to just get some final turns in off summit. It will be interesting to see how fast those 500 reservation spots will fill up tonight. Anyone else going to try to get up there?

Damn, I'm not suprised they go that fast, 500 is not a lot when Bachelor probably averages 4-5k visitors daily in the spring.

I hope we do not have to keep this up all winter but in the meantime I am willing to go along with the rules and wear a mask and goggles and keep my distance. Mammoth has had signs asking riders to give each other 15ft for courtesy/safety for a couple years at least. I would rather people not get close to me in the lift line and step on my skis anyways and really there’s room for people to spread out

Reservations closed in less than 10 minutes!

Correction: It was like 15 seconds!

I didn't even try. Too many restrictions, too few lifts etc.
