Boredom isn't the only risk of driving through the desert . . .
The drive to Mammoth takes most guests through desolate desert areas. Although this may seem like easy driving, wind and flash flooding are serious risks during some times of the year. Wind can be especially dangerous when we have kayaks, gear or roof racks attached to our vehicles or if we are driving tall vehicles or pulling trailers.

If you're a private pilot, getting to Mammoth by air can save you a ton of traffic and time -- and the Sierra views from 10,000 feet are world class. But for all the obvious reasons like wind, snow, visibility, terrain and turbulence, flying into KMMH can be challenging. I interviewed my favorite pilot to get his top tips for general aviators. Because I'm me I've taken the editorial liberty of 'extending' his comments. Click here for his advice, my commentary, and more fantastic pics and videos of our Eastern Sierra flying fun.

Yes, that poor, unfortunate heap of metal and plastic is a car ... Or at least, it used to be a car.
