Imagine it’s spring, the end of the skiing and snowboarding season. You came up to Mammoth Mountain to get in one more weekend of skiing and snowboarding. You have time for two more runs down the mountain. Decked out in your best gear, your first run goes well. You cut through the snow like a hot knife through cold butter.

The inhabitants of this room, in the Theta Xi fraternity house, sleep in a loft that takes up about half of the ceiling space, which leaves the floor free for parties.
The space is furnished with couches and a high-definition TV. A giant Monster energy drink poster hangs from the wall, along with several signed Playboy magazine covers and a displayed blow-up doll. Outside is a spacious balcony, featuring a campfire pit, tables and a rotating light system.
