About the Resort
A large resort which makes up the highest ski area in California high up in Sierra Nevada, just to the East of Yosemite National Park, Mammoth mountain has an excellent reputation for its superb snowfall, combined with the longest ski season throughout the North America region. Let’s Talk Skiing in Mammoth If
If you’re looking for an excellent ski resort that suits everyone, you’ve definitely come to the right place. You’ve got a fantastic mix of terrain which is handily split into six coloured
categories; a great combination of Alpine Bowls, super-smooth groomers, panoramic peaks and treeless pistes, all ready for your discovery.
As part of the biggest and longest mountain range in the US, the Mammoth mountain certainly towers over its neighbours. It’s also part of the Long Caldera; a super volcano which is known to have erupted over 57,000 years ago at the vast height of 11,000ft. Split into three key areas; Canyon Lodge, Eagle and Main Lodge, the resort is easily accessible thanks to the buses which connect the village to the Mammoth Lakes.
If you’re looking for Mammoth ski accommodation, you’ll find a good choice of venues on offer. There are over 100 Mammoth hotels here which vary from budget to luxury locations.
Without a doubt, the Mammoth weather is outstanding here. March is definitely the best month to visit; with an average snow depth of 368cm found at the top of the mountain.
Off the Mammoth pistes, there’s a fantastic array of lively bars and super restaurants. You’ll find most of the entertainment in Mammoth Lakes which is close by. There are 50 Mammoth restaurants to visit which will suit a wide variety of tastes.
We like Mammoth as it’s a superb ski resort that has something for every standard of skier from beginners to the most expert. With its reputation for an outstanding snowfall record across a superb long season, you’ve got a great mix of Alpine-esque bowls, combined with your traditional American wooded pistes all waiting to be discovered in the Californian sunshine.
There’s no doubt that Mammoth lives up to its name and delivers on its promise as one of the world’s best resorts to choose for skiing. You’ll find an average of over 400 inches of snow each year here, not to mention the powder that results from the vast storms across the Sierra.
