On Location in Mammoth Part 3

We woke the morning of our prep day looking at 16" of fresh powder that fell the night before. The grip truck hadn't even made it to Mammoth. We told them to stay in Bishop overnight and they'd come up the next morning. Here we are arriving on location in Mammoth.

Warming by the fire was a treat to escape the 20 degree weather outside.

Prepping the driveway. The client wanted no snow on the driveway so guys had to chip away the snow and ice and melt it with huge propane blowtorches.

Serious icicles.

Time to wrap

Next stop after the shoot was a tasting session at the local Mammoth Brewing Company. Yummm. HIghway 395 double IPA was my fave!
