FISHING OPENER
The kickoff to fishing season in the Eastern Sierra, lovingly known as “Fishmas,” is here and the fish are on the bite! Mammoth Lakes offers pristine scenery and epic catches on our lakes, rivers and creeks. To help keep the real unreal, wild animals and other anglers appreciate when you dispose of fishing lines at a Tangle Free Waters station.

RESPONSIBLE RECREATION
Spring in the mountains implores locals and visitors to camp in the great outdoors. It is a privilege to watch the constellations weave their stories across our dark skies. The quiet and stillness of nature instills peace of mind that is unlike anywhere in the world. Together we can protect this unreal place. When exploring outdoors, stay on designated trails, properly dispose of waste, and minimize your environmental impact.
Everyone has a role to play in maintaining the beauty of this picturesque destination for future generations. Before pitching your tent, review the Visit Mammoth Sustainability page for best practices on camping and playing responsibly.
