Any day spent riding Mammoth Mountain is a good day. But let’s be honest, no crowds and blower storm skiing might top the list. After a bit of a dry spell, the faucet turned on at Mammoth and the timing couldn’t be better. Over the last few days, the resort has been in prime condition, and there’s more snow on the way.

Photographers Christian Pondella and Cody Mathison captured the recent madness in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, as illustrated in the photo gallery below. With images spanning the last few days, let these shots get you fired up as Presidents’ Weekend pow descends across the U.S.
