Uphill Battles - Visit Mammoth

Kids are awesome, right? RIGHT? But sometimes it can feel like an uphill battle getting everyone organized, fed, clean and out the door on time for school, work and what-have-you. What’s the cure?

A getaway in Mammoth Lakes takes the battle out of family time unless of course, you’re talking about a spirited snowball fight. With pockets of wonder around each corner and endless thrills for all sizes — from skiing and snowboarding to family-friendly snowshoeing and snowmobiling — you’ll be coasting into the good times. And remember, nothing says “I love you, Dad” like a snowball to the face.

Any challenge is an opportunity to grow, expand and experience. With each uphill comes a downhill, so start believing in winter magic and relish the ride.
