Mammoth Mountain
The mountain
The first thing you'll notice about skiing Mammoth is that the name fits - it really is a mammoth-size mountain. With 3,500 acres of terrain, 150 trails, 28 lifts and 3,100 vertical feet of skiing, you can spend a weekend exploring the slopes without much repetition.
An epic ride up Panorama Gondola carries you to the 11,000-foot peak. Beneath the summit, open expanses of both extreme terrain and the wide, groomed Dave's Run a wait skiers and boarders.
That's the thing about Mammoth - with multiple peaks and slopes facing all directions, on any day chances are you're going to find some prime ski conditions, sometimes in multiple places on the slopes as the day progresses. For advanced terrain, Chair 22 is my personal favorite, leading to steep, powder-filled, tree-lined runs with scary names like "Avalanche Chutes" that keep them from getting tracked up too quickly.
For beginners, a well-developed ski/snowboard school offers group and individual instruction and plenty of gentle terrain, a couple of moving-carpet ski lifts and some poor fool dressed up like a skiing mammoth to amuse the kids.
Mammoth is also well known for its assortment of terrain parks, its collection of seven areas of halfpipes, jumps, jibs and geegaws winning a slew of "best of" awards in last season's ski press.
To immerse myself in the experience, I joined a "Parks and Pipes" snowboard camp offered by the mountain last season. I figured I'd be double the age of the next student, but several adults joined me in the multi-day class, which eventually split into two parts along age and skill lines.
After careful instruction and encouragement, I was able to tackle some of the basic park features. But when I advanced to the more complex swooping, turning and downright scary features, things didn't go quite so well.
