Next, I headed back into the valley, and *just* beat the sunset on the east side of the valley, against the White Mountains. You can see the sun set behind the sierra crest. That road I was on in the first photo is just to the right of the highest peak (Mt. Tom) in the second photo. The road heads up several miles, just north of that moraine on the right side of Mt. Tom.
Anyway, I do so love my town, and California. Hard to beat the views...
Cheers, all.

This is up at the end of Pine Creek road, at the mine. That pass you see over the GTV heads up to Pine Creek lake (lower and upper), and then you can either head south back toward Paiute Pass, or north toward Mammoth pass. It's a gorgeous hike, but a bit

This is at the east end of Line Street, east of Bishop, California. I rode east to see if I could beat the sunset - I *just* made it. I will never tire of the views from my town. I do so love California...

This is just west of the last photo. The road loops west back toward Highway 395, which I took back into town. Hard to beat a Sierra sunset here in the Eastern Sierra. Owens Valley at its finest...
