Mammoth Mountain is traditionally among the first ski areas to open and sometimes operates as late as the Fourth of July. Emphasizing its unrestrained feel, Mammoth receives over 400 inches of snow annually with an average of 300 sunny days a year. The mountain is surrounded by the protected backdrop of Mt. Whitney and Yosemite National Park. Amongst this natural beauty, the town meets the mountain to create a distinctive and welcoming area for visitors and locals alike. There are 3,500 skiable acres to play on with a vertical drop of 3,100 feet and 150 named trails. There are 29 lifts in place, including two gondolas and two high-speed six-packs.
