The plan for the weekend SG's is.... BE FLEXIBLE!! After glorious weather and ski conditions for
the entire month of January, Mammoth is picking up the edge of a warm storm moving down the coast
and through Southern California. Showers are forecast through the day Thursday, with 5-6" of new,
warm snow Thursday morning. The weather forecasts have been shifting daily, so we are making
contingency plans to maximize the prospects for getting our races off this weekend.
** REVISED SCHEDULE ** Following a morning meeting with race organizers and Far West Masters, we
are making the following adjustments to the schedule:
∙ Fri - 2 races (no training run)
∙ Sat - 3 races
∙ Sun - contingency day
We will hold to the timing of the original schedule on Friday, subject to weather permitting the
course crews to maintain planned schedule, with 9:15-10 inspection, 10:15am first race, noon second
race. Saturday we will try to move everything up a bit to try to get 3 races in. Updated schedule
from Mammoth Race Department is available from link below.

Race checkin will be held in the Team HQ building at the Race Department counter (the old
"Slopeside" building just west of Ch. 1 Broadway Express base station). Please check in early to
ensure you get the latest news for the race day schedule. We will be having our post-race party on
Saturday afternoon at Giovanni's Pizza at 4pm (in the Von's shopping plaza).
