Mammoth Mountain

Nestled in a beautiful valley cut into the magnificent eastern slopes of California's High Sierra, Mammoth is surrounded by snow covered mountain peaks and glittering alpine meadows. Mammoth is an enormous complex with 27 lifts, 3,500 acres of ski-able terrain and 3,100 feet of vertical. What makes Mammoth so special are its world-famous bowls, gentle groomed trails, steep chutes, secluded tree runs and regular California sunshine.

With one of the nation's longest ski seasons (November to June), most dependable snow depths (10 to 15 feet of natural snowpack), highest ski elevations (11,053 feet) and friendliest staff (1,800 courteous employees to assist you), visitors from the first timer to the seasoned pro will be impressed.
