Well, the good news is it is snowing in Mammoth. The better news is that the Ski Area opens today. This is likely a record as the earliest one can recall is about 10 years ago and skiing on Halloween. The bad news is... well there really isn't any bad news. It's snowing and this means an extra long winter. The City Concierge has celebrated its second year in business, and we now operate centralized reservations for the town with all available hotels and condo rentals online. So when the iitch strikes to come on up, we'll be able to take care of you with one stop. It's all electronic, and its all in real time.

If you are planning on coming up for the holidays, there are only slim pickins left for the week after Christmas. If you would like to come before and spend Christmas Eve in the snow, there are still some great values. Fill out our form and we will find you accomodations. Early December there are also some "not ready for prime time specials" available. Check out our site to see what you can book. Have fun, and don't forget your chains. Here's what is happening in town.
