Mountain High, USA
Resort life
Off the slopes things are somewhat different and not what you would totally expect. The resort itself, doesn’t own or provide any slope linking accommodation or provide a multi complex resort with all the normal holiday attractions. Around the base areas are a few sport shops and snowboard hire outlets and cafeterias, but that’s about it. However, Mountain High is located next to the town of Wrightwood which provides a host of local facilities from lodges to bed and breakfast joints. Los Angeles is only 90 minutes away so you could even base yourself there or at any one of the many towns en route.
Add your own recommendationEating
Where you eat depends basically on where you decided to stay. Most lodges and hotels in the area have restaurants or are close to one. There are also loads of fast food joints to seek out all the way back to Los Angeles.
Nightlife
Nightlife and other evening entertainments vary from place to place, but basically things in Wrightwood are laid back and not very exciting while Los Angeles rocks big style and offers millions of things to do.
