Quick advice for last minute trip!
Posted: Tue Jun 18, 2013 8:07 am
Our 5 day trip to the silver divide had to be shortened, and we are now left with 3 days for a trip. We are hoping for something in the Mammoth/Bishop area. Ideally I would like to hike in to a base camp, spend the second day exploring, and head back on the third day. I also want to stay above 10,000 ft as much as possible, as our experience day-hiking around Mammoth the last few days has shown mosquitoes are much lighter (or even non-existant) above that. A couple contenders I would appreciate feedback on:
Duck pass trailhead to Virginia Lake
South lake trailhead to Dusy Basin
Mosquito Flat trailhead to Pioneer Basin
I haven't been to any of these areas before, so any preferences or opinions are appreciated (even better as it relates to current conditions... I have checked the conditions threads, but never hurts to ask).
