    New scriber here,
    Nothing better then the high Sierras.
    Been up there a hundred times,
    Once you go to the Sierras you'll always go back. Can't wait to get back up there, thx for sharing. Dang so nice I've been in all those stores. Gosh got so buried this past winter
    Excellent the snow pack will restore all the beautiful lakes now,👍🇺🇸🎣

    Hi Doug! Wow! Wonderful video of the snow topped mountains, interviews, the drive, and great conversation! Loved the bluegrass music, too!
    The temps will be in the 90’s over here this weekend on the west side. The lakes are fuller than full! Scary for the communities.
    You’re creating “prime” video’s for true enjoyment. I look forward to your subscribers increasing. 🙂👍

      Thank you so much Dana! So glad you could come on my journey; learning how to edit and finding new adventures to share with everyone! I have been watching the reports on the west side, plus witnessed the snow pack which seems mostly still intact. Hopefully the levee holds, but looks like Tulare Lake is back for a few years. The tule elk from there are up at Point Reyes in Marin, perhaps they send them back down there? Really treasure the positive comments; Thanx again Dana!

    Love the way you show a variety of subjects, like the wildflowers along the way. That rocky canyon you hiked up in the first video looks like rattlesnake paradise!

      Thank you Dick! You and Rhonda seem to be my biggest fans. That's great! I need to film less wildflowers and more rattlesnakes; I'll do my best. I thought the desert rats keep rattlers for pets. Tell me, is this the truth?

    Do you think Mono Lake/ June Lake area will melt by around June 8 ish?

    • @CalNeva
      @CalNeva  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think there will be snow in the mountains, and also spots on the dirt roads in corners in the shade or Northside. The main paved highways are clear, but if you plan on hiking you could encounter snow: bring spiked hiking sticks and if going higher elevation bring snowshoes. I think the fishing will be poor because water levels high and cloudy. Otherwise, should be good time for sightseeing and camping ( bring warm clothes for night). I hope that helps; have a great trip!
