Telemark Camp 23/24

Here are the  Telemark Workshop dates for this Winter, 23/24.

Jan 5 and 7

Jan 26 and 28

Feb 23 and 25

Mar 8 and 10

Mar 22 and 24

Location: All groups meet in front of the Mammoth Community Foundation building at Main Lodge next to the Broadway Express Lift (Chair 1) at 9 AM. While it is recommended that participants choose one group, missed sessions can be made up on any scheduled day. I try and keep things simple.

Mammoth has released new prices for the upcoming season. The Telemark Workshop is unchanged at $550 and private lessons are dynamic pricing, $160 – $260 per hour depending on Holiday, weekend, midweek, etc.  Let me know if you are/aren’t planning on attending and if you have any questions or comments, give me a call or send an email.

If you’re having issues on the day of one of the groups, it’s often quicker and easier for me if you text me as I usually don’t check my email on the hill. Other times, use whatever communication method you like, but text is usually faster.

Mammoth Telemark Camp 20/21

Hi All,
 Greetings from beautiful Mammoth. If you haven’t been up here in the last three weeks, some days the smoke is better than others, but overall things are getting better.
 Mammoth Mountain has made the decision to move forward with the 20/21 ski season, (do they have a choice?) with the expected COVID protocols. Some of the details haven’t been announced yet, including how ski school will run daily operations. Junior Ski Team and the Master’s Race Program are going to happen this year and we are moving forward with the Telemark Program.
 The program will be the same as last year, including price. Five half day sessions for $425 plus tax. Season pass holders will get a discount and of course we get to use the ski school lift entrance. If there are any changes the group would like to see, please let me know.
Please let me know what your plans are and here’s hoping for a great ski season!

Telemark Workshop Notes

Hi All, We’re just over halfway through the workshops with four more left. The last group on Sunday the 29th was great with about a foot of powder. We’re supposed to get more snow this weekend so dress appropriately.

 I know everyone has been doing their jumping lunges and stretching routines, so we should be ready to go.
Fingers crossed for snow and see you this Friday and Sunday.
