CA Highcountry

Post by **BOHNTR** » Fri Jun 09, 2006 9:05 pm

Took the family up to the high country on the long Memorial Weekend. It was cold and even snowed on us one of the days. Most people don't think of California when you talk highcountry....however, we have the tallest mountain in the lower 48 states. Enjoy

Mt. Whitney (highest Mtn. lower 48)

The Eastern Sierra Mountain Range:

Backpacking lake just before the snow hit:

Some ducks in the mountain lake:

Tule elk off of the highway in the desert floor below the moutain range:

Nice country and nice pics, and I learned that CA has some big mountains to boot. Never knew that actually, thanks the lesson.
