We drove over to the Bishop area for three days to do some hiking on some of our favorite trails. We visited two different Long Lakes: one in Little Lakes Basin, and one out of South Lake. Both were beautiful, surrounded by snow-capped peaks. The high temperature in Bishop was 100°, but a welcoming 75° at the high elevations.

On our last day we wanted to hike from Saddlebag Lake into Twenty Lakes Basin, but were stopped by a large sloping snow-field that ended in the lake. Precaution seemed to be advisable for us, although more sure-footed hikers could easily traverse it.
