The Sierra Nevada Mountain Range

This was the view from the rear of our motorhome at Brown's Town Campground.

Our stay in Bishop just served to whet our appetite; it is an area in which we will spend more time. Here are some more pictures from "south of town".

So, Becky, can you see the face in this rock...



We saw more of the magnificent rocks that served as backdrops for many westerns and early TV shows. But, you know, you can only take so many pictures of rocks...

This is Mount Whitney in the distance - at 14,495 feet, it is the tallest point in the lower 48 states. We got up to 10,000 feet before turning back.



This mule deer (we think) decided we were worth a look as we drove along "horseshoe meadows".


Who knew that sage brush bloomed at this time of the year...




There will definitely be more from the Bishop area in the next year - we are going to try to make it back in spring - We may even have to skip Indy to do it...
