Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

The Minaret Vista is a viewpoint that shows off one of the jewels of the Ritter Range, the jagged and dramatic Minarets. These rocky spires are stark against the sky and make for an iconic and easily recognizeable trademark of Mammoth Lakes. From this amazing viewpoint, visitors can also see two of the tallest peaks in the range - Mount Ritter (13,157 feet) and Banner Peak (12,945 feet), and after the sun goes down, Minaret Vista makes for an amazing spot to go stargazing. The Minaret Vists can be reached by hiking or driving, and during the winter, the remote spot can be accessed via snowshoes, cross country skiing, or through a snowcat tour from Mammoth Mountain resort.
