Day Hike #3
On Wednesday we want back to the Bishop Pass area and took the main Bishop Pass Trail up to Long Lake where we stopped to do some fishing. At some point I'm going to come back and take a shot at doing Bishop Pass as a day hike (12 miles round trip). Wookie enjoyed taking a break in the shade while Timber and I tried our luck at fishing. We spent lots of time changing lures and trying different spots but we never had any luck. I guess that is why it is called fishing and not catching. When we come back I'll bring a few more tricks with me which will surely catch trout. But for this trip I wanted to pack light. After we finished the hike we drove over to Lake Sabrina and checked it out. It is a beautiful lake and we saw lots of people out kayaking and fishing. After that we went back to bishop and took a drive through the desert looking for the Owens River. We found it along with a bunch of garbage that people dumped out into the desert. After our adventure was over we drove north to Mammoth Lakes where we stayed a night at Motel 6. I wouldn't recommend staying there. For dinner we grabbed a bite to eat at Roberto's Mexican Cafe. The food was alright.
