What Activities Are Open at Mammoth Mountain?

Partially nestled in the town of Mammoth Lakes, Mammoth Mountain is a popular resort and activity area. It’s an appealing destination, since there’s always something going on here in one form or another. If you have plans to visit the Mammoth area this summer, here’s what you need to know about what’s open, what will be opening, and other important details, brought to you by the team at ASO Mammoth, your one-stop shop for high-quality biking gear and hiking essentials as well as premier Mammoth snowboard rentals and repair.

Winter Activities Are Pretty Much Done

As of early June 2021, according to the Mammoth website, there are no lifts operating at Mammoth Mountain. This means winter-related activities like skiing and snowboarding will have to wait until the winter season begins again, which usually happens in November.

But Mammoth Is Open for the Summer Season

While you’ll have to wait to plow your way through fresh powder, Mammoth is now open for the summer season. This equally popular Mammoth season usually continues into the early fall. The main points of access and use for summer visitors to Mammoth include:

• The bike park
• Gondolas for scenic rides
• The Sierra Star Golf Course in Mammoth Lakes
• Lodging, including the Village Lodge and other properties referred to as the Mammoth Lodging Collection*

*Reservations for lodging can be made online. Multiple dates are available.
