There should be more time to add improvements.

I saw on the facebook the lower mtn bike park will be open on memorial day weekend, and the rest of the park is scheduled to open the 16th of june. so I will repeat my question. Whats new for mammoth bike park summer 2012? mmsa? anyone from the ski area listening? less than a month to go do you have a plan? or at least a marketing response.

Any trails around town melted out, a la up/downtown? Thinking about bringing the bike up this weekend.

IDK about any trails on the mtn but there are plenty of clear trails in the area (rock creek etc)

When I rode the bus up to ski on Monday morning I was looking at those trails along the way. Most of what I could see looked melted out and I did see bike tire tracks on them. There may be a few snowy areas over portions of the trail that are still shadowed by the trees, but easy to avoid.

Cool thanks. Not really hoping for anything on the mountain, but I'll give uptown a try. Maybe Rock Creek if I have time.

[Sierra Lady]

You're welcome.

The trails in and around Shady Rest should be free and clear of snow. The paved bike path around town has been swept and has seen a lot of bike traffic lately.

uptown is open to chair 4 as well as downtown. you have to hop on a service road till chair 2 then way to much snow. shotgun is good, as well as lower juniper.

[PerfectZero]

sweet, thanks. shotgun would definitely be a bonus.

The park is opening May 26th...

All of these trails have been melted out and ride able for about 3 weeks...

Looks they want the beginner area over by Chair 11, and they want to run chair 11.

Rode today!

I basically did the Get of at F Parking Shuttle stop, climbed uptown to Paper route then jumped up to lower half of pipeline(just before the ramp over the trail), you could hike Pipeline further up if you wanted, lots of people were, but I didn't get up there. Then to shotgun. There is no snow in that lower section that I noticed. I heard of others going over to Bullet via Paper Route as well as Juniper with no reports of snow.

You can also climb out of main lodge and hit lower twilight, but you do have to cross a good fifty foot section of snow. Didn't ride it, just hearsay.

Cheers!
