Mammoth Lakes may be a small town in Mono County, California, with a population of just over 7,000, but what it lacks in size, it more than makes up for in character. The town is steeped in a rich history, reflected in the captivating Mammoth Ski Museum and in the story of its formation, traced back to a gold rush borne of a claim on Mineral Hill by four resilient prospectors in 1877.

Today, Mammoth Lakes celebrates its heritage while focusing on tourism, its main economic propellant. Surrounded by the awe-inspiring Ansel Adams and John Muir Wilderness Areas, and located adjacently to the eastern entrance of Yosemite National Park, outdoor activities abound. Renowned for skiing, hiking, fishing, and camping, the town is a year-round paradise for outdoor enthusiasts.

When to visit Mammoth Lakes

When to visit this outdoor haven is conditional on what you wish to experience. Summers in Mammoth Lakes are warm and dry, offering endless hiking and camping opportunities, with an average temperature from 75°F to 80°F (23.8°C to 26.7°C). Conversely, winters here are a wonderland, dominated by heavy snowfall, making for prime skiing conditions.

However, for a truly magical experience, plan your visit during the fall. From September to November, the weather is pleasant, and the town transforms into a symphony of colour, exhibiting some of the most beautiful fall foliage displays in the state. This period also marks a lull in tourism, meaning you can enjoy all Mammoth Lakes has to offer in relative tranquillity.
