Mammoth Lakes, California





Arrived safely, we are going to investigate the small town. Tommorrow, we will head over to Yosemite. We saw new fires just a few miles away, it is very dry here.(I hope they stay just where they are!)
Just up the road was Inyo National Forest..we drove up there and found Devils Postpile N.M.! From there we rode a bus up the mountain. Devils Postpile, basalt lava erupted from volcanic vent and cooled some 20,000 years ago. Hank and I hiked about 4 miles and found the beautiful Rainbow Falls.

We are exhausted now and are going to do nothing the rest of the evening.
