But why is it called Mammoth Lakes? Did the archaeologists dust ancient pumice off Mammoth skeletons? Or did divers find them at the bottom of the lakes?

The history behind the name is a bit more prosaic. It is derived from the Mammoth Mining Company.

Last time I was there in ‘89 is was pretty active. Don’t know if that is a guide or not. (Bought me a couch in Bishop, it lasted 5 years. Good times)

These quakes happen all the time in Mammoth.
It’s on a volcano. It’s on the caldera.
Sometimes there can be tragic consequences. Maybe ten years ago one of the daily quakes shook loose a chunk of ice from the roof of a school and fell on a little girl.

Hopefully it is California undocking and floating off into the Pacific. :D

Were they a HUGE mining company, or did they keep running into mammoth bones while they were trying to mine? Sabre-tooth cats, too?
I'm just trying to get, does this small area upheave every so often?

The area around Mammoth Lakes is part of a VERY large volcanic caldera. There has been eruptions from this caldera in the distant past--eruptions known to eject more volcanic ash than Mt. Tambora did in 1815 (it's almost a supervolcano).
