10 Things to do Good for Big Groups in Mammoth Lakes That You Shouldn't Miss
High in the Eastern Sierra of California is the growing ski resort town of Mammoth Lakes, surrounded by alpine beauty and majesty. Powdered peaks of the Mammoth Mountain Ski Area and surrounding wilderness draw skiers, snowboarders, snowmobilers and ice skaters every winter. Summers are quieter and less crowded, but vacationers in search of the path less traveled will find secluded biking and hiking trails, rushing rivers, icy mountain lakes, green golf courses and breathtaking scenery.

The best spring riding I have experienced. Felt like winter. Great mountain and the locals were very helpful. I cannot wait to go back again. Check out our Youtube video for highlights of our trip: GoPro 2K: South West Road Trip (Sedona, Grand Canyon, Page, Las Vegas, and Mammoth Mountain).

Awesome experience. We were lucky enough to be up at Mammoth during a full moon and booked this snowshoe tour. Our guides were lovely and very informative. There were about 20-25 people total on the tour. Included the snowshoes and hot beverages and dessert afterwards. The tour was about 90 minutes long hiking through the woods and amazing views of the mountain and sky. Definitely recommend.
7. Convict Lake

Lake known for its alpine scenery and rainbow trout.
Reviewed By dabautista
Beautiful lake with a nice trail loop that is easy to hike. If you want to rent a kayak or pontoon boat, I suggest reserving one ahead of time because they were sold out by 10am. There are nice little spots around the lake where you can swim and take in the great scenery. One other suggestion is to get there early if you want to avoid the crowds, especially if you want to hike because the trail is narrow.
8. Devils Postpile National Monument

This obscure part of the National Park System features unique basalt rock formations.
Reviewed By CNewing - Willoughby, Australia
The devil’s post pile is pretty amazing and the easy (stroller friendly) trail makes it so accessible. Means if you want to take it easy you’re in luck, if you want something more involved then you can carry on down to rainbow falls or any of the other interesting sounding trails. There is a cute park ranger post on arrival and if you need water top up for bottles then you are in luck. Extra special for us was getting to see a deer along the trail!
