For years, I’ve known Mammoth not merely as a place to do some of the
best skiing in the world, but it has also become a world-class mountain biking resort. I’ve been a fat-tire fan of
Mammoth since they first opened it up years ago. The ride from the top of the gondola to the bottom takes hours (if you
pace yourself, and stop for lunch) and offers breath-taking views of the valley below.
Well, it’s still kinda chilly up there, but the Mountain is set to open the lower hill on Saturday to bikers. Keep in
mind, some of these trails are double-black-diamonds, so if you go, bring a helmet and a first aid kit.
