Mammoth Mountain

Can you tie in Howard’s forecasts overview? Real time conditions would be wonderfully useful. With conditions at the top along with other sections of the mountain. Wind speeds + visibility Also conditions at each of the main lifts wait times ! Open or closed!! We recently had to walk up from chair 5 at 3:58 bc the lift closed. It was still running but lifty would t let us on. After all that excerise getting to the top my calorie said I only burned 258 for the day! That’s not accurate. Maybe for the hike alone. The overall miles are accurate? I do like knowing an average speed but I don’t think the speed is accurate. Don’t want it tied to fb that’s irrelevant.

Boy and Girl do I loooove Mammoth Mountain. Dave McCoy is a real innovator. The spirit of enjoyment is amazingly potent all around the vast Nature paradise. Running squirrels, flapping crows, are native to the region. ❤️👌🏻👌🏾❤️ It’s so fun here that you rarely encounter any emotional disconnections, everyone grows with the Sun and Enjoys the exciting electricity of their time here. It’s such a big mountain that it’s hard to get stuck in line for too long. It boasts terrain for all kinds of riding as well! I’m very happy to have experienced a full season at a land of plenty. 🌞🏔 Thank you Dave, Allaister, Paul, Geoff, and the list goes on, you all have grown out of me my Truth and my Light, and it’s quite a pleasurable Nature to be in! 👌🏾👌🏻❤️🌎

As a frequent user of the Squaw Alpine app, which needs some improvement, I found the Mammoth app to be just... bad. The only redeeming feature is the functional map. So what’s not good? 1. The Check-in is inconsistent, and if you miss the auto-check-in, you need to realize that “track” is what you need to hit. The stats are really poor. No info on which runs or lifts you used. The worst? No way to track your friends on the slopes. There is a feature... it just doesn’t work. I tried every which way to make it work, but it’s so poorly executed, that I gave up and just used Google maps location sharing instead. There is no info on lift wait times. The browser-based pull for “Dine”, “Play”, and “Save” options is not a great experience either. Bottom line... Mammoth, build a better app!

The Mammoth app has definitely improved over the previous generation. It’s power usage is less, but make sure you shut off all other extraneous apps to avoid draining your battery. I like the tracking features - # runs, total vertical feet, total distance, avg and max speed. My favorite is the summary tracker display of the itinerary of your runs over the trail map with the tortoise and the hare showing relative speed/time covered. Real time weather/conditions and lift status would be helpful.

The last few years the app has been really good. This season however I’m noticing there is a big problem with the web cameras. They seem stuck on November and early December dates. That was one of the greatest features this app had next to the crucial lift status and weather. I also don’t like the tracking feature as it’s confusing but I use a third party so I can track other mountains. Last I hate how it always runs in the background with the blue bar - using your location when I’m hundreds of miles away lol.
