Spring Activities in Mammoth Lakes

Say “hello” to spring in Mammoth Lakes.

Ski in the morning. Fish in the afternoon.

Mammoth Lakes runs one of the longest ski seasons in North America—the mountain regularly stays open through Memorial Day weekend, and some years well into June. At the same time, the lakes thaw, wildflowers push up along lower trails, and the Eastern Sierra starts coming back to life. Spring here means you can carve fresh corduroy before 10am and be casting a line on a glassy lake by early afternoon. It's the most versatile season on the calendar, and one of the most underrated times to visit.
