Are there any activities for those under 42"?
Our play area is perfect for those under 42” with a smaller sledding hill, daily appearances from Woolly, and more. Kids 42" and taller are welcome, but it is definitely designed with smaller/younger kids in mind.
Is there food available?
Yes. We offer snacks and a wide assortment of hot and cold beverages including a full bar for adults.
What if the weather is bad?
Safety is our first priority. The Tube Park will commonly remain open even when the ski area is closed. We make our best effort to open on time daily with any changes to our operating schedule being communicated through the mammothmountain.com website and on our sign in front of the tube park. We will make our best effort to contact guests with reservations that are affected by changes. Please note, sunny days can be some of our fastest sledding conditions and may warrant delays or closures to keep guests safe.
