Mammoth Mountain is home to the Mammoth Mountain Ski Area, founded by Dave McCoy in 1953. Mammoth is a ski, snowboard, and snowmobile mountain during the winter months. Mammoth is the highest ski resort in California and is notable for the unusually large amount of snowfall it receives compared to other Eastern Sierra peaks—about 400 in (1,000 cm) annually and about 300 out of 365 days of sunshine—due to its location in a low gap in the Sierra crest.[29] The ski area has more than 3,500 acres of skiable terrain, with 3,100 ft (940 m) of vertical drop, serviced by 25 lifts.[30] The ski gondolas are also used by tourists who wish to get a summit view of Long Valley Caldera directly to the east and Sierra peaks to the west, south and north.[4] To the south of the mountain, there are a number of lakes that serve as tourist attractions.
The mountain offers skiing among Stunning Scenery with some of the most breathtaking views you’ll find anywhere. With mountain backdrops and pristine, snow dusted forests, every run feels like a postcard come to life.
Off the mountain, it's not just for skiers! The town of Mountain Lakes is a hub of winter activities. After a day on the slopes you may warm up with great food and après ski in the town. From cozy cafés to lively restaurants, the dining scene is the perfect way to end a winter day.
