Three days and two nights at Mammoth, condos on the mountain, every level of skier welcome. The trip dads and kids talk about all year.

SCHEDULE:

• Friday — Arrive, condo check-in, group welcome dinner

• Saturday — Full ski day, group photo at the chair, dinner at the condos

• Sunday — Half ski day, lunch on the mountain, head home

Pro tip: Lessons available for first-timers — book early. Rent gear in advance to skip the morning lines. Bring sunscreen (it burns at altitude), goggles, and a warm jacket for the chair. This is an A La Carte trip.
