Replying to What’s the cheapest way to ski out west this summer?

What’s the cheapest way to go to either mammoth or hood this summer? I trying to find the cheapest flights, best airport to go to, cheapest transportation, and cheapest bnb. I know camping is pretty popular so I also would like to find out more about that and how to do it but any other cheap alternatives for sleeping would work unless it’s some weird homeless type alternative because I ain’t doing that. I also don’t really care if i go to hood or mammoth so tell me which ones the better choice.
