****Snow update (Jan. 2006): Happy new year! Mammoth just got 125" of FRESH POWDER!!! Can you believe it??? Mammoth Mtn has more snow than ANY OTHER resort in N. America!**** A haven for both skiers and snowboarders alike. This mountain resort in the eastern part of the Sierra Nevadas of California is still a fairly "local" mountain for Californians. Only about a 4 hour car drive from Southern California, Mammoth provides a top tier ski resort experience with its diversified levels of runs and excellent snow conditions! When the snow has melted, there is still a myriad of things to do, ranging from mountain biking to golfing and hiking. Mammoth Mountain has been bought by Intrawest in the past couple of years. Intrawest is a mega-resort company that is trying to turn Mammoth into a Vail-like destination! Personally, I am all about the sleepy town that Mammoth used to be. Others are glad that there are more restaurants and shops now. Either way, it is still the best place to go and spend the weekend! It is all about Mammoth Mountain for all the latest info. |

|  | Mammoth in the summer All the snow melts away to glorious blue skies and picturesque mountains that frame endless miles of valleys and meadows. I love this mountain! :) |
Dusk in Mammoth.... There's nothing like a sunset over the ocean, but a sunset in Mammoth is a whole different type of spectacular! Imagine seeing the skies turn a deep red and hearing nothing but a few birds here and there....the cool summer evening breeze and the smell of the BBQ.... |  | |

You should hike Desolation in the south of Tahoe!! I hope your work will change to let you get out and play more! | chewy3326 Sun Feb 5, 2006 23:50 UTC Great page and photos.
