    Nice shots... I've driven by there a few times, but never at a time where I could stop and actually wonder around and take in the scenery. Cool area, now I know I need to make time next time I'm on that side of the hills... ;)

    Nice. I love exploring that area. Is mobius the arch that frames Mt. Whitney when looking west through it?

    Thanks. It's a quick loop of a drive with short hikes if you want. We enjoyed camping there.

    Wonderful photos. Thanks for sharing - what a beautiful area. And camping! I'm jealous as I sit here in my office listening to the cars splashing in the rain outside! :D

    Very nice, great angles and composition. I used to go through the area quite often on the way to backing in the high Sierra, but never knew about the spot. Maybe in my next life ...

    Thanks. Did you hike Mt Whitney? We drove up the Mt. Whitney trail-head and fell in love with the area. I would like to explore that place someday.
