Good Hikes In/Around Bishop

Sup Y'all

Head to Bishop tomorrow afternoon and seeing if anyone has some good hikes they can share. Have not spent much time in Bishop other than fishing on line street/camping at PVR. Staying at the world famous Elms motel.

Rather keep it pretty local then head to Alabama Hills area or Mammoth.

Thanks in Advance!

 

Last time I was there I did the Chocolate Lakes Loop. It was amazing. You pass like 5 lakes on your hike. It is around 7.4 mile hike in total. It's a good workout because you gain around 1600 ft in elevation. If that doesn't scare you off, then you have to check it out. We're going back again in Aug.

sweet thanks sounds epic. wondering what the accessibility is right now with this years snow fall.

 

Prob still have snow, but Sabrina Lake to Blue lake is nice. You can always check out the Volcanic Tablelands also.

 

i do a lot of climbing out there. im usually climbing in the buttermilks or the sad/ happy boulders area. i see alot of hikers around the area but not 100% on trailheads. the buttermilk's is definitely nice for the veiws of the foothills and huge boulders. id recommmond maybe looking into those places. the happy boulders is like a 10 min drive from town and the buttermilks maybe 30 min at most but defintly closer than mammoth. i was there a month ago and some trails were still snowed over and made offroading to the locations a bit tuff so having 4wd helps, trails might be clear now since its warming up.
