Long term parking in Mammoth #Transportation


 

My wife and I are setting off for a few days over the upcoming holiday weekend, and counter to our usual strategy, we're thinking of leaving our car at our starting trailhead. We're setting off from Red's, so that would be Mammoth. I've been searching the group archives and various sites for Mammoth, Red's, ESTA, etc, and I can't seem to find the answer to this question: where can we leave our car in Mammoth for 4-5 nights? Ideally somewhere both legal and likely to leave windows intact. ?


 

Park on Minaret Road by Mammoth Mountain Inn lot B or higher.


 

I parked up there (in the A section) for a week in late July / early August
and had no problem. Probably safest not to leave food in the car, but I
don't personally know of any marauding bear history.

A ranger at Mammoth Lakes Welcome Center?told me to use the road-side parkings along Mammoth road before Mammoth Mountain Lodge for a long-term parking when I did a Sierra High Route from Italy pass to Mammoth in 2019.
You can check/confirm this with a ranger when you pick up you permit (by email)??

BTW, we used?Mammoth All Weather Shuttle (MAWS) () for a shuttle from Mammoth to Italy Pass trailhead.

You can park on the main road in near the Mammoth Ski Lodge, but you must park in the areas that have signs like "A" ,"B" , "C"....... That's where all the people park going to the Devils Postpile. I did a section of the JMT, parked there, took YARTs to Tuolumne Meadows and finished at Reds. Parked my car there for 5 days. No problem! Enjoy your hike.
