Lone Pine to Minden, with TP in Bishop, passing the Mammoth Lakes, and Mono Lake.
West to the Starting point is the Mt Whitney, highest mountain in contiguous United States.
This place is famous among hang gliding pilots, here Lary Tudor broke the 300 miles and many other World records, he kept his distance record for more than a decade.
It's a long task, as an exception, most tasks are 1 to 1:30hrs, this one might take around 2 hours.
Have fun. |
