Keeping it Real.
(The end result? Results.)

Flew to Mammoth for lunch yesterday…

And no, I’m not the jet setting sort. We actually had the good fortune to accompany Horizon crew & staff on a test flight from LAX to Mammoth Yosemite Airport for a preview of daily air service that will commence this season on December 18th.  Press release:  www.mammothmountain.com/company_info/press/latest_news/index.cfm

While I’ve always loved the drive to Mammoth (which I do often from Napa) for its scenery and serenity, I have to admit the view of the Eastern Sierra range from above is even more dramatic.  Of course, the major change air access will impart on the resort & destination goes without saying.

The hour and five minute flight literally flew by aboard the 76-seat Bombardier Q400 aircraft (pictured above landing in Mammoth yesterday). Upon landing we headed up to Mountain Side Grille and dined on some of Patina Group’s new culinary offerings before heading back to LAX.

Flights will start from $79 each way and can now be reserved here: www.mammothmountain.com/plan/getting_here/air/index.cfm
