So many memories to share. This from Mono County Tourism.

“In honor of Dave McCoy, founder of Mammoth Mountain and legendary ski industry pioneer, we share the beautiful Ralph Waldo Emerson quote: “To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; …To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better…To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”

Dave, you succeeded ten thousand fold. Thank you for your drive and vision, for acting on your dreams, for your life-long contribution to shaping this beautiful, vibrant and special place that some of us get to escape to as often as possible, and others get to call home. Our heartfelt sympathy and love to Roma, your entire family, colleagues and dear friends. God speed. #ThankYouDave”
