That’s because the resort is just 5 inches away from breaking a single-season snowfall record. Lauren Burke, communications director at Mammoth Mountain, explains that what’s noteworthy is that it’s the earliest in the year the resort has ever announced it would be open so late. “As always, we do not have a closing date set, but will plan to stay open as long as conditions allow.” “We are stoked to announce that we will be open daily for skiing and riding until AT LEAST the end of July,” Mammoth continued. “It’s been a historic season here at Mammoth and it looks like we’re just one storm away from breaking the all-time record of 668 inches of total season snowfall,” Mammoth Mountain wrote on Instagram.
