Thanksgiving is nearly here, along with the first major storm of the 2019-2020 winter season in the Sierras. It's nearly time for the opening events of the Far West Masters race season!!

Our first races of the season will be on Dec. 14-15 with a GS/SL weekend at Mammoth Mountain. Mammoth is a reliable early season venue with a proven track record of providing excellent race conditions with whatever combination of natural snow and snowmaking that comes together. Even with a late start to our winter storms, the cold weather will enable plenty of time for the snowmaking crews to put down a solid race surface.
