(Just a word to the wise, wear fleece. You can always take it off.) After a warming breakfast at Tom's Place, we drove up the Rock Creek Road to the John Muir Wilderness Area. Second lesson learned--never ask a hiker how difficult a trail is! After a rocky, strenuous (for us) hike, we reached the overlook to Mack Lake. Next stop was the Mammoth Lakes area where we went first to Mamie Lake, then crossed the road to photograph the waterfall created by the outflow from Mamie down to/and including Twin Lakes. Heading east, we went to the Hot Creek Geologic Site, then north to scout out Mono Lake for a nice location to return to for a sunrise. June Lake was our home base for the next three nights.What a stunning series Diane

Gorgeous photos, especially when downloaded!
Thanks for all those thumbs up, Sirius_one! So glad you took the time to download--these wide landscapes have so much fine detail that gets lost in the basic display.

Love the scenery...it's just beautiful.
Glad you enjoyed the views, Marty. It sure would be nice to have more time out there in order to pick and choose the time of day and lighting. Our itineraries keep us on the move. My BH doesn't understand why I like going back to places I have already been--it's all about the season, weather, and lighting.

Wow, Loren, you really ARE far removed from the rugged mountain ranges of the West now. But I envy you the years of spending your summers in such magnificent surroundings! Sounds like you experienced the 'best of the best'.
