Ten racing days roar beneath Eastern Sierra peaks
Amateur and professional riders compete on Mammoth’s historic high-altitude track during an extended motocross gathering beneath the Sierra Nevada peaks.
Event details
Mammoth Motocross fills the high-desert track with successive classes of amateur and professional racing, all set against the dramatic Sierra skyline. Practice, qualifying, and finals create a steady rhythm across ten days rather than a single afternoon of action, giving families time to settle into the rhythm of race week rather than rushing through a single crowded afternoon. Vendor rows and a busy pit area give younger spectators plenty to explore between motos.
Younger riders and spectators alike can watch multiple skill levels compete on the same historic track, an approachable way to introduce children to motocross without needing to commit to an entire event’s schedule at once.
Teams commonly stay for several nights or the full program, making lodging and equipment logistics central to the trip. Reserve a Mammoth Lakes Stay well ahead of race week, pack for high-altitude sun and cool evenings, and fill off-track hours with mountain biking, fishing, or hiking around the Mammoth Lakes Basin. It is a full mountain-town week built around engines and elevation alike, with plenty of quiet trail time available once the checkered flag drops each day. Afternoon thunderstorms are common at this elevation, so pack rain gear even on a clear morning.
