About
Mammoth Lakes is an outdoor lover's playground nestled in the Eastern Sierra Mountains between Yosemite National Park and the Nevada border.

In the winter, it's a renowned destination for skiing and snowboarding at Mammoth Mountain, tubing at an epic tube park and snowmobiling on more than 100 miles of tree-lined trails. Cross-country skiing and guided snowshoeing tours are also available. After a day of play in any season, the town has many bars for happy hour, pubs with world-class brews and all sorts of tasty eats.
