What’s New for Winter ‘22-23 in Mammoth Lakes

New Voltaggio Brothers Restaurant Brings Star Power to Mammoth Lakes Dining Scene

Mammoth Lakes, Calif. , -- California’s premier mountain destination is set to see a number of improvements this winter as investment continues pouring into Mammoth Lakes. From new restaurants and remodeled lodging to improved infrastructure, the visitor experience will see a number of meaningful enhancements.

And the best is yet to come with several transformational projects breaking ground this winter, including a completely reimagined activity hub at Mammoth Mountain and construction on several luxury lodging projects underway.

Getting to Mammoth Lakes will also be easier and more cost effective from Southern California, especially for regular visitors, with the addition of Advanced Air flight products that will reward regular air travelers.

MAMMOTH MOUNTAIN IMPROVEMENTS

The Voltaggio Brothers Restaurant - Famed ‘Top Chefs’ Michael and Bryan Voltaggio are bringing their latest restaurant concept to The Village at Mammoth this December 2022.
Woolly’s Tube Park - Construction on a multi-year expansion and enhancement project at Woolly’s Tube Park kicked off in summer 2022 with the goal of developing Woolly’s into a hub for both winter and summer activities. For Winter 22/23, Woolly’s will see major renovations and expansion to the tubing lanes, six new snowmaking fan guns, and a new elevated conveyor lift. Expect expanded parking and a larger snow-play and sledding area as well. Long term plans include a day lodge, a mountain coaster, the relocation of Snowmobile Adventures HQ, summer ropes courses and more.
The Mill Expansion - The Mill, a favorite on-mountain BBQ restaurant and bar, is expanding both the outdoor and indoor spaces. Indoor seating will double in size and a mobile order pick-up window will be added. The outdoor bar is doubling in size and includes new furniture throughout the restaurant plus a new sound system to enhance The Mill’s live music capabilities.
Snowmaking Expansion - Summer 2022 saw over $5m of new and updated snowmaking equipment, including the installation of 20 new SMI Super Puma fan guns and 6 SMI Polecat fan guns. These are state of the art automated machines that will increase snowmaking production during cold weather windows. The new snow making guns save on energy use as they don’t require compressed air to operate. The placement of the new guns allows for better East to West connectivity across the mountain, and a quicker build for Mammoth's famed Unbound Terrain Parks.
Sierra Lodge Employee Housing - Mammoth Mountain closed escrow in July 2022 on the Sierra Lodge hotel property, to be used exclusively for employee housing. Sierra Lodge will house up to 72 employees. Each room offers a kitchenette and private bathroom and employees will also have access to 30 on-site underground parking spots as well as communal spaces at the Lodge. Mammoth currently offers employee housing to approximately 500 employees.
Ski Butlers - Recently acquired by Alterra Mountain Company, Ski Butlers will bring their equipment rental delivery service to Mammoth this season.
