Yep, the time has come for annual Bishop trip. My schedule got a little hectic this year so I had to make it a little shorter this time. We will be taking the same two trails (Silver/Wyman Canyons and Wheeler Ridge) but his time we are doing Silver Canyon at night!
Friday - July 27th - Silver/Wyman Canyons
Description: Silver Canyon starts at the bottom of the White Mountain in the town of Laws just a few miles north of Bishop. This run will provide some spectacular views of the stars with no city lights to interfere. We will then descend down Wyman Canyon. If everyone is up for it, we will return back the way we came in. This is an easy trail but the the heights can be intimidating. Low range will be required for the switchbacks. We will be getting close to 12,000 ft elevation so those that come into town the same day for this run may experience altitude sickness. :link:
When: July 27, 2012
Where: Laws, CA
Time: 8:00 PM, we will meet up and head out once everyone is ready. Airing down is optional for this run but it can make the ride more pleasant.
Meeting Spot: In the clearing next to Silver Canyon Road just outside of Laws. :link:

Saturday- July 28th - Wheeler Ridge
Description: Wheeler Ridge is a fun trail that will require decent ground clearance on the technical areas. Lockers are not required but can make some obstacles easier. Depending on how quickly we get through this, we will be taking a detour to a beautiful isolated lake for some great scenic views. :link:
When: July 27, 2012
Where: Swall Meadows, CA
Time: 10:00 AM, we will meet up and head out once everyone is ready.
Meeting Spot: In the clearing off Sky Meadow Road in Swall Meadows. :link:
