Skiing holidays to
Mammoth USA

Expert Opinion

“A legendary ski area, that might seem a little more difficult to get to, but well worth the effort. A massive ski terrain with huge snowfall, great cruising runs, huge terrain parks and some pretty scary stuff too. This is a great family option, particularly over Easter when you can easily combine the trip with Las Vegas or the beach in LA.”

"We have just returned from our combination snow, sun and fun holiday in USA, it was fantastic and impeccably arranged by James! We (mum, dad and 3 adult sons) flew to Las Vegas, picked up our huge SUV and drove to Mammoth, about a four and a half hour drive so not for the faint hearted. We had 7 days of excellent skiing, 5 days unbroken sunshine and 2 with fresh snow. We were there during American school vacation time but the runs and lifts were never overcrowded. We stayed in The Westin Monache, that was my only slight disappointment. Not the 5* it advertises. Nothing major, but little niggles like lack of toiletries provided and only having bottled water left on 2 occasions (and only 2 left each time!) and a $25 a day parking charge which we hadn't been warned about. Big bug bear was the 75 steps which had to be climbed wearing ski boots and carrying skis at the end of each day's skiing! On the plus side, it's right beside the Gondola, has a large heated outdoor swimming pool and 2 pretty large jacuzzis. The restarant does a brilliant "scramble" at breakfast time for a very reasonable cost. We finished our holiday with 4 days in Las Vegas soaking up the sun and enjoying all that LV has to offer. I can highly recommend this 2 centre holiday as it can be combined with a drive through Death Valley and also a visit out to The Grand Canyon and The Hoover Dam."

"I have been many times and would always go back. Snow is fantastic. Some challenging off-piste. fun parks (3 in all) are immaculate and cater for all abilities. Pipes are pristine and very well maintained. Super pipe is huge/scary! Atmosphere is great. Locals friendly. Queuing not an issue. 5* resort for me. 50/50 ratio of Skiers to Boarders and is without attitude. "

"Just back from Mammoth - best time ever - Juniper Springs was perfect and lots of snow! Thank you to Ski Safari for organising everything - it was first class - see you next year! "

"Interesting skiing from the top of the upper lifts on large open bowls. Lower slopes quite flat. June Mountain not really worth a visit except to say you have been there. Mammoth village very spread out and a car is a must to access facilites and to get to resturants. "
