We paid a brief but exciting visit to California’s Owens Valley in late August and September. Highlights included horseback riding in the High Sierra above 10,000 ft, and excursions to the ghost town of Bodie, Mono Lake, filmdom’s Alabama Hills, Devils Postpile, Rainbow Falls, the Bristlecone Pine Forest, and a gondola ride to the 11,053 ft peak of Mammoth Mountain. Bishop was our base and the weather was perfect. To pick a favorite in this wondrous area is too challenging, but the ancient 4,100-year old forest of Bristlecone Pines would be hard to beat.
