Report: This was one of the best National Park Service sights that I have visited. The Rangers were very friendly and the restrooms were cleaner than those at Yosemite. And the Devils Postpile formation is one of the most interesting things I have ever seen. Definately worth the trip to Mammoth to see the Postpile.
