Day Hike On the Way Up To Bishop
My usual program these days is to ride up from L.A., do a day hike on the way to Bishop to get some elevation and stretch the legs, motel in Bishop for the night and then head into the back country in the morning. Often I do Kearsarge Pass as a warm up. Anybody have any other suggestions? A couple of hours to elevation and then on to Bishop.
Many thanks and happy trails and non-trails.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I'm bring my elderly dad up. On the way up, he will hang out for a couple of hours while I hike and then spend a couple of days hanging around the E. Sierra while I'm camping.
