This is good to hear.

One thing to keep in mind that it is possible for thu-hikers to get  
to Red's Meadow before the store is open or fully stocked for the  
season.  I know that in 2004 we got there only a few days after they  
opened (June 20) and that was a low snow year.

Mammoth Lakes is one of the few trail towns with a full-service  
outfitter.  It is a good stop to consider if you need to swap out or  
replace gear.

There is also an excellent shoe store, Footloose Sports, if you need  
to solve foot/shoe problems.
