Ski here 30+ days per year. Great steeps- all open. Beginner and intermediate trails too- it's a big mountain.
Mountain has 10 to 13 feet of snow pack as of 1/18/04. Upper mountain gets wind packed 'sugar' snow on regular basis.
This weekend, snow was perfect for cruising. Even the steeps were 'easy'. Most of our crowd is over 40 and still didn't gasp too much.

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!

(Guy from Los Angeles; 300miles away from Mammoth Mountain)
Been skiing Mammoth for 5 years; anywhere from 20 to 40 days per season.
Done Tahoe and/or Parki city area (+ many smaller resorts) but I really, really have no desire to go anywhere but Mammoth. You get the sun, steeps + easies, trails or trees, tons of snow, yet somehow a small family-resort feeling.

I have been skiing in Val D'Isere, Tignes, St Anton, Chatel, Vebier, Sella Ronda, etc.
The place I keep going back to is Mammoth Mountain.
It is the best all round skiing and holiday experience.
Stay at Timber Ridge for solitude and ski in - ski out. Stay at Eagle or Juniper for total convenience - better than ski in - ski out anywhere in Europe.
No lift queues - try June Mountain on Easter Day, but don't tell anyone else!

Mammoth = Massive, huge variety of terrain and a very well organized resort and great bars in town. High speed lifts meaning no ques, and although I arrived on opening day (November 11th) with a thin base, a week later a major storm rolled in with 5+ feet of unlimited powder.
Best run: Upper Road Runner.

Mammoth is amazing. I've been to other resorts around the country and world: Vail, Beaver, Steamboat, Kirkwood, Heavenly, Zermatt, and Mammoth is by far my favorite mountain.
Has a small town feel, but the amenities of some of the best resorts. Love Mammoth and excited that flights are now available out of Orange County, because the drive through LA sucks.

Mammoth is my "home" mountain. Ride there about 20+ days a year.
Well, it is Mammoth as in huge. Not like Whistler or the Trois Valle in France, but it's a pretty massive ski resort. Something truly for everyone. Lots of beginner trails, tons of intermediate cruisers and enough challenging expert terrain to keep anyone busy for a week. Just a huge variety.
The resort has multiple base lodges. Almost all the lodging is in and around the town. Only a small amount of lodging and dining by the Main lodge way up the hilll.
Gorgeous scenery, terrific ski school (for all levels) and skiing often into May or June.
It's hard to get to: 5 hours at least from LA. The flights in are fickle due to crosswinds, but the drive through the desert is gorgeous. There are a number of small towns speckled throughout the desert which are fun to stop in and see. Old time West. Also, there is a sister resort 30 minutes (door to door) north of Mammoth called June which is not big but very fun. Never crowded except for at the weekend/holidays on the single lift from the bottom up to the lodge (Yes, up to the lodge).
Food of every kind. Nice people. 90% of the people are from LA and San Diego on the weekends and holidays. I've lapped powder runs all day on a lonely Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday.
Go enjoy. Tons to do especially in the spring when the mountain is rocking and you can go hiking all over the Eastern Sierra (or golfing if you're into it). Plus Yosemite is an hour or so away.
