Mammoth Mountain opens early and some years doesn't close until the Fourth of July. Mammoth has added snow making to the top of its highest peak (more than 11,000 feet) and down the Cornice Run.

OK, so how big is it? 3,500 acres to play on, a vertical drop of 3,100 feet, access to lift skiing at 11,053 feet, 156 trails and 27 lifts (9 of which are high-speed zappers). There is an average of 300 days of sunshine a year here. The new Lincoln House and White Mountain Lodge are a village gondola ride away and offer luxury condos from studios to three bedrooms.

Visitor Reviews of Mammoth Mountain


Dan from UNITED KINGDOM writes:

Just got back from 10 days in Mammoth. The only way I can describe the skiing is completely awesome. We were spoilt by in excess of 5 ft of fresh snow, but let's not take away the simple fact that U can ski anywhere knowing that U will eventually come back to a lift. The uplift system is swift and slick, even being there for Easter w/e the longest wait was only 5 mins. Mountain staff are friendly and helpful, the only downside are a lack of European type mountain watering holes and eateries.
I would definitely consider returning, even with a near 24 hour door to door transfer!
