Hiking
If you want to get to Agnew Meadows or Reds Meadow, you can take the shuttle from the Mammoth Ski Area. But if there is still snow on the road or the ski season still on (like it was for us by the end of June), you have to hike all the way up for five miles. It sounds worse than it is, because you will enjoy stunning views of the Sierra Nevada. Time almost flies.

Hiking
During the busy but short summer season only the shuttle bus can use this road during the daytime, making it a relative quiet but certainly more gradual climb out of the valley to Mammoth, and certainly easier when there's still snow on the trails early in the season.

Cross-country skiing
In winter the paved park road offers excellent gradual access into the now quiet National Park. It is snow covered until usually June and often has cross-country ski tracks from other users that make it fast and convenient.
