Mammoth's recently revamped visitor center features displays on the park’s early visitors, alongside lots of stuffed animals. Don’t miss the fine photographs of former superintendent Norris in his trademark buckskins and mountain man Jim Bridger bearing an uncanny resemblance to country singer Willie Nelson. Rangers give talks in front of the center at 10am, 2pm & 3pm.
The visitor center complex is named for Horace Albright, park superintendent between 1919 and 1929 and director of the National Park Service from 1929 to 1933. The center was formerly the army’s bachelor quarters.
