Some Californians regularly visit the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountains (skiing in Mammoth, climbing Mt. Whitney, or heading up the back way to Yosemite or Lake Tahoe), but we haven’t traveled to this area in over 25 years! We hope it won’t be another 25 years before we come through here again.
On this (quick) 2-week trip, we headed out from our home campground in Valencia, California. Our first stop was Lone Pine, California, a town of about 2,000 people, which serves as a launching point both for those going to Death Valley (the lowest spot in North America) and those climbing Mt. Whitney (the highest spot in the lower 48 states).
We love the Eastern Sierra and glad you visited some of the best places!
We’re loving this place too. Future trips in store for us. Such easy driving and 24×7 scenery!
I enjoy reading this blog. It is a way for me to see through your eyes a beautiful part of our country! Thank you so much for sharing.
Love, your cousin, Phyllis Brown
Thanks for reading, Phyllis! Great adventures in California for sure.
Love, Hank and Cindy
