The Volcanic Tableland offers exceptional bouldering opportunities, because of
its unique geologic features formed by the cataclysmic volcanic eruption of
the Long Valley Caldera 750,000 y.a. which left a highly dissected landscape
of Bishop Tuff. Through time, this once barren tableau has evolved to support
a unique and fragile environment that takes a keen eye and time to appreciate.
The Volcanic Tablelands is situated at the ecological cusp of the Northern
Mojave and Great Basin floristic Provinces where plants and associated
wildlife species combine to make this an unusual and biologically diverse
landscape. It has taken millennia for this environment to evolve and it will
take responsible recreational users to preserve it into perpetuity - so enjoy
and protect this place

Fish Slough Petroglyphs

The 36,000-acre Fish Slough Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) is a
place where geographic isolation, geology, climate, and hydrology have created
a rare and irreplaceable ecosystem. Located in the transition between the
Mojave Desert and Great Basin biomes, Fish Slough encompasses an array of
plant communities, including wetlands, alkali meadows, and uplands. With 126
taxa described, Fish Slough represents one of the richest wetland floras in
the Great Basin. The ACEC also provides habitat for rare endemic plants, such
as the Fish Slough milk-vetch and the alkali Mariposa lily.

Happy Boulders The Volcanic Tableland offers exceptional bouldering
opportunities. 750,000 years ago, cataclysmic volcanic eruption of the Long
Valley Caldera created unique geologic features along the Bishop Tuff. Through
time, this once barren tableau has evolved to support a unique and fragile
environment that takes a keen eye and time to appreciate.

The Volcanic Tablelands is situated at the ecological cusp of the Northern
Mojave and Great Basin floristic Provinces where plants and associated
wildlife species combine to make this an unusual and biologically diverse
landscape. It has taken millennia for this environment to evolve and it will
take responsible recreational users to preserve it into perpetuity - so enjoy
and protect this place.

In the early 90 s, the Tableland was visited only by local climbers. By the
late 90 s, thousands of climbers were coming from all over the world to try
out their climbing skills on the many boulder problems the Tableland has to
offer. With this dramatic increase in use, the BLM and the local climbing
community has developed a climbing management philosophy to protect the
natural resources while preserving access to climbing opportunities.

The Happy drainage and Sad drainage are located along the Inyo-Mono County
line, approximately 7 miles north of Bishop, California. Both drainages are
oriented in a north-south direction extending north from the Owens Valley. The
crest of the Sierra Nevada of 14,000 ft (4,265 m) lies 16 miles (27 km) to the
southwest, and the crest of the White mountains of 12,500 ft (3,800 m) is 11
miles (18 km) to the east. Both areas are in the transitional zone between
cold semi-deserts of the Great Basin to the northeast and the hotter Mojave to
the south.

Fishing enthusiasts can try for trout in the many area lakes or the North Fork
of the San Joaquin River.

## Facilities

The campground sits in a lodgepole pine forest surrounded by high peaks,
adjacent to creeks and a small lake, at an elevation of 8,400 feet. Spring and
early summer wildflower displays bring even more color to the landscape.  
  
Many species of wildlife call the mountains home, such as black bear, mountain
lions, mule deer, pine marten, pika and many species of fish and birds.

## Nearby Attractions

The area is close to Devils Postpile National Monument and the Ansel Adams
Wilderness. Both areas provide great day trips, offering horseback riding and

activities available around the lake.  
  
Numerous trails lie minutes away, an obvious draw for hikers, mountain bikers
and off-road vehicle enthusiasts. The Fern Lake Trail, a short drive away,

overlapping loops. The facility provides drinking water, flush toilets and

is 7,600 feet.  
  
Many species of wildlife call the mountains home, such as black bear, mountain
lions, mule deer, pine marten, pika and numerous fish and birds.

## Nearby Attractions

Lake Mary Campground

LAKE MARY CAMPGROUND

## Overview

Lone Pine Campground is located near the base of Mt. Whitney, the highest peak
in the continental United States, offering unparalleled views of the mountain
and surrounding peaks of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.  
  
An abundance of fishing and hiking opportunities can be found both in and
around Lone Pine.

## Recreation

Hikers are drawn to the majestic scenery and challenging trails of the Whitney
Portal area. Trails lead to the John Muir Wilderness, including Mt. Whitney,

to Whitney Portal and its picnic area and fishing pond.

can access Lone Pine Creek and a nearby pond.

## Facilities

Lone Pine is especially popular for RV camping. There are also a few tent-only
sites and one tent-only group site that can accommodate up to 15 guests.
Campsites are arranged around a single loop and have little to no shade or
privacy due to the desert landscape.  
  
Firewood is available for purchase on-site, and showers are located 8 miles
west of the campground at the Portal Store.

## Natural Features

The campground is nestled in sagebrush alongside Lone Pine Creek. At an
elevation of 6,000 feet, the location offers clear views of surrounding
granite peaks. Desert wildflowers add brilliant colors to the landscape in
spring.  
  
The area is home to abundant wildlife, including black bear, mountain lions,
mule deer, pine martin, pika and many species of fish and birds. This
campground is especially prone to bear activity.
