What visitors say about the resort

Mammoth Mountain is valued for its snowfall and long season: Pacific weather fronts bring record snow totals, and skiing continues into June, and sometimes longer. Visitors praise the vertical drop, terrain parks and views of the Sierra Nevada.

Criticisms include wetter snow than in the Rocky Mountains - the local nickname "Sierra cement" also appears in reviews - and wind that causes the upper lifts to close. Visitors also complain about the drive from Los Angeles and weekend crowds.
