About Kittredge Sports
Kittredge Sports has proudly served Mammoth Lakes for nearly 60 years, earning its reputation as one of the town's premier outdoor outfitters. Their Main Street shop carries ski and snowboard rentals alongside a full retail selection of fishing, camping, and outdoor gear, backed by a repair department that handles everything from edge work to binding mounts.
The rental department operates with the same attention to detail that has kept Kittredge in business through six decades of Eastern Sierra winters. Ski packages cover beginner through performance levels, with demo options for experienced skiers who want to try the latest models before committing to a purchase. Snowboard packages are available in adult and junior sizes, and the fitting process is thorough — technicians assess your ability level, preferred terrain, and boot comfort rather than defaulting to a one-size-fits-most approach. Seasonal rental programs cater to Mammoth locals and long-stay visitors who need reliable gear for the full winter at a fraction of the daily rate.
Beyond winter sports, Kittredge is one of the few Mammoth shops that genuinely serves the Eastern Sierra year-round. The fishing department stocks rods, reels, fly-tying supplies, and detailed knowledge of hatches and conditions on the Owens River, Hot Creek, Crowley Lake, and the alpine lakes accessible from the Mammoth Lakes Basin. Camping gear and outdoor apparel fill out the retail floor, and the repair workshop handles ski and snowboard tuning, boot modifications, and binding work with the speed and precision of a shop that has been doing it longer than most competitors have been in existence. For visitors who appreciate deep local expertise and a shop that feels like a genuine community institution rather than a corporate chain, Kittredge Sports is Main Street's most established option.
