Getting to Our Main Office in Summer – Main Lodge
Our office is located in the Mammoth Kid’s Building at the Mammoth Mountain Main Lodge on Minaret Road along State Route 203.
To get to the Main Lodge from the signal light at the intersection of Main Street and Minaret Road, follow State Route 203 about four miles to the Main Lodge parking area.
As you approach the Main Lodge, you will pass several parking areas and lift stations. You will also see cars parked along both sides of the road. A shuttle bus provides transportation from this parking to the Main Lodge. You can park anywhere here for free, or closer to Main Lodge in handicapped parking or paid parking.
As you arrive in the Main Lodge area you will see the Lodge on your left and parking on both sides. If you continue along this road, you will end up at Minaret Summit and Reds Meadow; don’t continue past here if you are coming for a lesson – find parking wherever appropriate.
If you don’t see any handicapped parking spaces available, please speak to a parking attendant.
To the right as you enter this area is a Woolly Mammoth statue, an adventure course and a climbing wall.
You will see the Panorama Gondola Station behind the Woolly Mammoth statue. Underneath the Gondola Station is the Mammoth Kid’s Building, where our office is located. There is a walkway from the road to the building. As you enter the building, turn right down the hall; we are last door on the left.
