"I can't wait to go back. Totally worth walking some more to get away from others fishing. We also saw a bald eagle fishing too! The eagle was so big and majestic. Proud to call it our national bird."

"Beautiful! Make sure you have your camera/phone ready to take pictures when the lake calms and the mountains reflect off the lake. Caught some great trout!"

"It can be pretty chilly in the fall. Just be prepared for hot or cold weather. Bring water and snacks. There is a fee to get in - I want to say $7ish for each person. Photos come out great!"

"Best Burger!! Make sure they are open, as they close for winter. We always make our way to the Jolly Kone for their SUPER tasty hamburgers, when visiting Mammoth. Their soft serve is also so good!!"

"Just keep driving... you'll get somewhere eventually...."
