Golf Fish and Bike till the Snow Falls

The local temperatures may be variable, but in Mammoth during the fall, outdoor activities are still king. Fishing is the most popular and the lakes stay open till mid November. While the mountain bike park is closed, there is plenty of terrain and forest trails in and around Mammoth that you can ride your bicycles. The Sierras have lots of mountain like terrain, and we are known for our trail system. Hiking too is still going strong as the trails never really close. When snow falls our trail system becomes a haven for snowshoes and cross country skiing. Golfing in Mammoth is till going strong and stays open as long as the ground doesn't freeze!. Sierra Star golf course offers 18 holes of golf and Snowcreek has 9 holes plus the ever popular driving range, so do bring your clubs on your trek.

It is getting a bit cold, but many of the pack stations will rent horses up until it just gets too cold for the animals. You might want to give them a ring and book a horseback riding adventure if your coming up sooner rather than later. If horses are your thing, you might also inquire about the pack drives. The horses get moved from Mammoth down to warmer Bishop and it is quite an event. It usually is a sleep over camping style adventure... and OK, like City Slickers, but truly a memorable experience. Check out all the activities in our "What To Do" section and look at the day trips too. You'll find quite a variety of adventures for your vacation.
