The first part of the drive up into the mountains is nothing special, but you round a corner and the Sierra's are laid out all in front of you. The first thing we see is Mammoth Lake and dam. |
Mile High Vista is spectacular and as you see, we had fantastic weather. |
Looking east into the Sierra Nevada, there are also lots of granite domes. None as famous as Half Dome, but still, amazing. |
Flowers EVERYWHERE. White, red, yellow, orange.... |
The Sierra Vista Scenic Byway is a loop and we just kept driving up into the mountains. |
However, near the top, there was snow, so we turned around. In addition, part of the road is unpaved. Alas, we apparently missed out on two amazing sites along the drive. Next time.... |
