Great report as usual. 395 and the Eastern Sierra have been my favorite destinations since a very young boy. My grandparents summered in Mammoth and wintered in Bishop for a period of time. I always look forward to your trip reports...thank you.

Thanks Frank! The through hikers we encountered all had stories about our stellar snowpack this season. I continue to look forward to improvement with my vision.

Another great report. It brought me back to my first encounter with Owens Valley in the summer of 1999. My friends planned an over night backpacking trip from Onion Valley to Kearsarge. That trip began my wanderlust of all things Owens Valley and surrounding areas. Glad to see the remaining snow.

I read the Lady was found alive, dehydrated but in relatively good condition. She reported that she became lost while trying to avoid a man with a knife who threatened to assault her.

In the news story last night and this mornings paper story, they made no mention of a man with a knife.
We really need to be aware out there in the remote places.

A couple weeks ago 2 hikers in Big Sur were threatened by a man on the hiking trail they were using.
Park rangers were called and the man was shot and killed.
He had a stash of ammo and guns at a campsite he was using in the back country.

There are a lot of scary people out there seems like our modern times are making them bolder.

It will be interesting to see how this incident plays out: Yesterday's ABC news included reference to a man with a knife, while the NBC news broadcast simultaneously did not mention it.
