The video shows a massive lift line at Mammoth Mountain on a windy day when high gusts forced the closure of most lifts, leading to overcrowding.
Mammoth spokesperson Emily van Greuning explained that the long line resulted from one running lift, while the rest were closed due to extreme wind conditions.
Despite the viral lift line video, officials at Mammoth have reported that terrain remains completely open and guest distribution hasn't exceeded normal holiday crowd levels.
Van Greuning emphasized that the viral moment captured over-crowding is misleading, stating it was a snapshot of a unique situation rather than a representation of ongoing conditions.
