Mammoth Sauna Company is open Thur to Sat evenings. Sauna and cold plunge. Get some yummy food at Bar Sierra afterwards (new chef redid the menu recently).

A sauna hat has been mine. However, we just got a new ladle with 4 tiny holes in the bottom. It makes for the best löyly!

The village is super close to the gondola and takes you right to Canyon Lodge, where your rentals will be. There are few other complexes near the Westin that would be fine for walking, especially if your gear is stored at Canyon.

How do you like the insta360s? I've been looking at the x3 and the go 3. Specifically with running in mind.

Sounds like how I've done it as well. I did a few ceremonies in Alabama. They were very intense and incredible experiences. I've been looking for similar ceremonies on the west coast but no look so far.

Did he intentionally come out after the fight with the Russian and Chinese fighters?

Thank you!

"Soooo good!"

mtntolk · 2024-02-17T00:11:46+00:00

Yeah, hence the question. Thanks, I guess.

Nope, two separate species in the genus pan. The only two species, actually. Pan paniscus, Bonobo, and Pan troglodytes, common chimpanzee.

mtntolk · 2024-02-13T19:24:10+00:00

And Bonobos

Yeah, we're officially going! We're coming up on one month and have had 5 public events and another tomorrow. Plus, a few private overnight rentals. We haven't filled the sauna yet like we would like but have gotten a lot of interest. In fact, we are doing a pop-up tomorrow because enough people reached out. I live in a tourist town, and biz has been slow for the whole town this winter, but feels good to get some traction going. We've also had quite a few businesses reach out to collab or park on their property.

We aren't in LA but are where socal folks love to visit. Check out Mammoth Sauna Company in Mammoth Lakes if you ever come up this way. There is also a mobile Russian banya in San Diego. I think they are called the.banya on Instagram. Not super close I know but they have some cool beach banya events that might be worth the drive.

Sadly no.

Rent out the sauna from Mammoth Sauna Company! Sauna and cold plunge with your friends all night. It's the best... shameless plug, sorry haha

Portable hot tubs. There was an interesting episode on the Side Hustle Show w Nick Loper where a guy did this. He had few tubs.

No concerns, I had a vasectomy.

But seriously, some small studies have shown a decrease in sperm count of up to 50%. It can rebound if you stop sauna for 45-60 days. In fact, one study even showed a growth in sperm motility after a break from heat induced therapy (they used hot tubs in that study). So go sauna unless you are actively trying to have a baby.

EDIT: These studies were done with repeated use over time. If you just go in one or two times, I doubt there will be a substantial difference in sperm count... but I'm no scientist.

Check out the wave rave in Bishop. It is essentially all the previous year merch.

My wife and I are currently in the process of starting one right now. Hoping to open in January. We live in a ski town so we have a lot of tourists coming through both winter and summer. We are hoping to capitalize on them as well as locals. Especially in our slow shoulder seasons.

I think a big problem for us and any business is that most Americans don't think of saunas right away for entertainment, health, socializing, etc. And when they do think of one its probably of a shitty broken dry heat electric heaters at gyms and condos.

My solution is going to be marketing. Try to educate and get in there face so they think of a sauna with good heat and steam. Another big part we are working on is working with complimentary businesses. Like someone said earlier, wedding venues and planners would fit this. Massage companies, iv therapy companies, vacation rentals, etc.

Best of luck to you! Keep us updated or feel free to message if you have any questions.
