More drilling at Shady Rest

 

As part of plans to explore for geothermal resources, Mammoth Pacific LP will complete the drilling of an exploratory well, 12-25, started in the fall of 2010 approximately ½ miles north of Mammoth Lakes, Calif., near Shady Rest Park. One well was completed last summer, 14-25. Mammoth Pacific will begin the project this month. The environmental analysis and permitting for the well was completed as part of the Environmental Assessment for the Upper Basalt Geothermal Exploration Project EA Number CA-170-05-04 (prepared by BLM with USFS as a cooperating agency). USFS manages the land and BLM processes the geothermal leases and permits.

Access to the drill site will be via the Sawmill Cutoff Road and every effort will be made to avoid conflicts with other users of the area.

Mammoth Follies casting call

 

It’s been awhile, but some longtime locals might remember the Mammoth Follies, which according to former troupe member Lionel Burt “ran about 400 years ago for two years in June Lake, two seasons in Mammoth and one season in Snowmass/Aspen.”

Well, Burt recently announced that the Follies are making a comback and looking for new talent. The revue is a “hysterical, historical musical/comedy romp through the ’70s and ’80s ski scene.” The idea is for the Follies to play during the ski season at the Mammoth Lakes Performing Arts Center, 542 Old Mammoth Rd., across from the Police Station, once and perhaps twice weekly, based on demand.

Burt said the group is looking for musicians, singers, dancers and actors. There may even be a small stipend involved, too.
