| This was the mountain on which I was born as a climber. Been back ever since. Make sure you get some jerky and find a soft game in Bishop on your way back to the city. | ||

| I suppose if there are drive-up mountains, one can report an ascent in a vehicle suspended by cables. Skiing conditions on these two days were magnificent. The sun was out in respectable quantities but the top of the mountain was raked by powerful winds throwing chunks of ice into your face. Let's you know you're on a real mountain even though there are hundreds of people below you. Have also mountain biked from the summit during the summer. What serene cruising! | ||

| A little difficult to not summit while riding in the cozy gondola - what a beautiful view of Mammoth's face! Winds were steady 35 mph at the top with biting ice in the face and diminished visibility. I haven't skiied a black diamond run in about 5 years but I hopped on that slope quick just to escape the wind and ice. Snow conditions were perfect for getting my ski legs back, nice powder off the course (because you know I had to go get lost out of bounds!). Never saw the sun, the temps were in the 30's and we got the lightest flurry while skiing but it was a great day to be on the slopes. Apres ski dinner was made spectacular at Mammoth Brewing Company while watching the snow come down in blankets! Can't wait to get back up there! | ||

| In the days before the Bike Park, it was a rare sight to see a bike atop the summit. The stupid part was I hauled it 2,000ft up the south slope not even realizing there were trails I could have used. Duh. A short Trip Report | ||

| A beautiful summer day in california. Trail varied from class 1 to 3. Nothing makes you feel better topping out on a peak while some look in disbelief. | ||
