Back by popular demand, the Orange County Hash House Harriers will again sponsor the 4th Annual Mammoth Mountain "Yank Your Doodle" Hash, to be held over the July 4th weekend. This year the 4th falls on a Saturday, so weíll kick things off the night of Friday, July 3rd. OCH3 will again sponsor three runs, including breathtaking views, volcanoes, earthquakes, snow, very little oxygen (8,000 ft. altitude), lots of beer, food, giveaways, etc.
We'll hash the night of the 3rd, the afternoon of the 4th, and the morning of the 5th. You can head home or off to other places on Sunday the 5th, or stick around Mammoth an extra day or two. The Friday night run will begin at 6:30 p.m. and will feature the 4th Annual Mammoth Mountain Mini-Skirt Hash. Either come up on Thursday night the 2nd, or bright and early on Friday morning the 3rd. Mammoth Lakes is roughly a 6 hour drive from the LA area. The Mammoth Mountain Ski Area is already anticipating being open through July 4th. Come up early and ski a day or two.

Accommodations (you have several options):
1. Hotels - there are several in the area, with a wide range of rates. Keep in mind that this is a very busy and popular weekend and hotels fill up quickly. Call the Mammoth Lakes Visitors Bureau at (800) 367-6572 for a listing of hotels and rates.
2. Condominiums - We have again arranged with the Mammoth Sierra condos to set aside some condos for rent that can sleep up to 6 in 2 bedrooms and a loft ($155/night) or 8 to 10 ($190/night) in 3 bedrooms and a loft. This is the best value for you if you can team up with other hashers. If Mammoth Sierra fills up, the Rental Agency has access to condos directly across the street from Mammoth Sierra at a complex called Winterset at roughly the same price range. Both complexes are in downtown Mammoth at the corner of Old Mammoth Road and Meridian. (Across from the Vonís Market.) You need to make arrangements immediately for you and your group directly with the Mammoth Sierra Condominium group. Their number is (760) 934-2231. When you call mention that you are with the Orange County Hash House Harriers.
3. Camping - For those on a budget or for those that want to be outdoors, Mammoth has lots of camping available (however, with the huge amount of snow this year, chances are that some of the camping will be limited). Most of the camping areas are around the lakes above town. They are Twin Lakes, Lake George, Lake Maime, and Lake Mary. Call the Visitorís Bureau at (800) 367-6572 to get a listing of the campgrounds and rates (usually around $10 per day).
