Mammoth Lakes
June 2013
Tater and I went to visit my sister and brother-in-law for a few
days in the beautiful High Sierra town of Mammoth Lakes.  We
visited Rock Creek Lake, Mary Lake, Twin Lakes, Horseshoe
Lake, and hiked around Convict Lake to the edge of the John Muir
Wilderness. We took the gondola to the top of Mammoth
Mountain which has the most amazing view! We explored some old
mining towns. We also relaxed in the hot tub and ate good food.
It was quite fun :)
Going up the Mammoth Mountain Gondola
We stopped in Bishop so I could show Tater some sites
around the town where I grew up
This is the creek that ran through our yard - an offshoot of
Bishop Creek - we used to float our Barbies down it and
catch tadpoles in it :)
Rock Creek Lake
He loved chasing after his silly Aunt!

Spectacular Convict Lake - we hiked around it - at the far
side is the John Muir Wilderness
Before Highway 395, this was the old road up the Owen's Valley
