Thanks Ali,
I was looking at the map lastnight and noticed if we took Owens River Rd all the way around back to the 395 we could jump across and catch the trail on the other side. Is that how you go?

You can surely do it that way.... come up by way of hot creek and then over 395 on to sherwin creek rd. The way I go (coming from sherwin creek camp) is down sherwin creek rd. Cross the 395 and turn left on the road that parralles 395. The dirt trail picks up shortly after that on the right side... before what I believe is a power plant or phone company. The rangers told me any dirt road you see you can ride... and if you need to cross the highway or ride on a short section of asphault road to find a dirt trail then go ahead... (I would be careful with that though) But it's nice up there!!! Nobody harasses you and it's beautiful!

Thanks again Ali
I was just looking at the map again and saw what you're talking about. I see the quickest way would be to hit the powerline road on down, cross 395 to Sherwin Creek.
I'm gonna have some new folks with me so it might be nice to do Owens River to Hot Creek then cross the 395. That way we can also check out the Hot Creek Canyon.

Hey Dan,
I do know that Dave will have Stumpy and maybe also Stumpy Jr with him. Plus I'm sure others will have children with them also
This is a family trip for sure and for all ages. There is so much to see and do, one could'nt see and do everything in a years worth of vacation.
This is Kathy and I's favorite place and it's a joy for us to expose our friends and family to such a beautiful area.
