A Mammoth Cerveza!

Check out this new Corona commercial, partially filmed at Mammoth Mountain! The close-up shot near the beautiful house is right above Eagle Lodge on the slope under Chair 15. The commercial then cuts to a fantastic panorama view of the Minarets, likely filmed near the top of Chair 23 – hard to tell with the ridge to […]

Conditions Nov 1st

The clock is ticking for the opening of the season, just nine days to go! Unfortunately there is not really any natural snow to report at this time although there is storm in the forecast for Friday so things could change. Temperatures are also meant to drop considerably by the end of the week allowing […]


Earth works to the Super Pipe

Another one of the summer projects this year has been to do some earth works for the super pipe. Previously the pipe was built purely out of snow which took a huge amount of snow and groomer hours. Now with the shape made out of dirt it should take less resources and snow to get […]

Going…going…

Unseasonably warm temps after the snow storm are eating away at the white stuff on the mountain. However, long-time Mammoth local and Kittredge Sports owner Tom Cage – who correctly predicted the early October storm back in July – has his bets placed on the mountain being open at the end of October. We’ll see!


Snow sticking around

This is the view from the Mammoth Mountain Inn. It’s warm and sunny, but we’ve still got a bit of snow!


Getting into shape for winter

The air is getting colder and the first snow has fallen, so it’s the time of year when I start thinking about a few ideas to get into skiing shape for the upcoming season. There are already quite a few good sites on the internet with plenty of exercises that you can do so I […]
