Ask Joshua for an overfly. They usually give you 10,000 ft and above if it is cold. I live in China Lake and fly in the area a lot. I personally would just follow high way 395 on the way up. Gives you more options.

John and any other Mammoth Skiers/snowboarders:
I bought a 2011/2012 season pass for Mammoth. As a bonus to get people to buy them it already became active on May 1 and I'm constantly looking for someone to share the cost of getting from Bishop up to Mammoth. I'd consider partnering on a clunker car stashed at Bishop for next season if any one is interested. I think they charge $30/mo for car storage.

Thanks,
Bill
