Great report! Love the Eastern Sierras. Spent many many days at June Mountain this winter enjoying the snow and try to get up there a few times during the summer as well. Very enjoyable place to take the family. Thanks for sharing.

The hotels do book up fast. We are going in July and booked a condo on April 15. So if you plan to go in summer, book a room now. Trout season in Mammoth starts in April and I think it ends in October. Not sure. Check out the condos on MammothEstates.com.

We hotel it in the cold, camp in the summer. There is usually lots of rooms available in the June Lake Loop, where we stay (unless there is a big event or derby going on). The hotel we stay it is friggen cool. This wknd they were only booked 1/3 full, and it was the wknd after opener

. Rooms have a full kitchen, ours had a 2nd pull out bed and I think we pay around $100 a night. We stay at the June Lake Motel.

Nice trip. We go every year. Last year I went in lake crowley then up mcgee creek put the yak up on shore and was fishing by first light. I got two trout about 22''-25'' and as fat as any salmon i have seen. they had one red stripe and the rest was lighter. Does any one know what kind of fish it was ?

Awesome report and beautiful pics man!!!
I love the eastern sierra and have been to almost all the places mentioned, and can't wait to get back. Glad to see you had a good time!

baitcasterboy20 · 05-11-2010, 12:58 PM

were you fly fishing to catch some of those???

dfroggy54 · 05-11-2010, 03:36 PM

beautiful...man those are nice pics.

Nice Pics, Steve, I'm the guy that just missed buying your Oasis after the 4th

Snowcreek condos are a nice place to stay too. Some units on a nice picturesque nine hole golf course. I ate at Whoa Nelli Deli years ago and food was so good I still remember what we had:

crab meat enchiladas - real crab not that krab substitute
buffalo meatloaf
flat iron steak on a caesar salad

no dish over $13

I went back for breakfast - smoked trout on a herbed cream cheese bagel

Hey Steve! I have a Tundra and I'm going to need tires. I'm pulling a 25' trailer and I was considering the BF Goodrich tires like in the your photo. How many miles are you getting on them and are they working out for you? What size are they?

Thanks Tim
