Up and Down the Big Valley Day1

The bikepack trip of the month was a three day outing from our home down the Owens Valley to Lone Pine and back.

Pleasant canal cruising less than an hour in.

Nearing Big Pine.

At Big Pine I headed east, crossed the Owens River, and headed south near Tinnemaha Reservoir.
The Fuji - esque  (sort of) Crater Mountain.

The base of the Inyo Mountains is arid with more than a hint of lower deserts.

Happily I found good water in Taboose Creek just prior to its confluence with the Owens.

I enjoyed terrific riding south of Aberdeen Station Road.





Eventually I made camp a bit north of  Mazourka Canyon.

Settled in and enjoyed the evening light.


A nice start!
