A summit unlike any other I've seen. Obsidian Dome is a steep 100 foot vertical climb to an an absolutely enormous bolder field. I had to hope along this snow-filled boulder field for nearly an hour before arriving at the true summit. Views of the Mammoth Area and the White Mountains were particularly nice!
Mono Lake is one of the most recognizable landmarks on Hwy 395. Its smell, shape,size and location next to the giant peaks make it quite unique. Finding the trailhead for Black Point was tough. My phone's GPS didn't even show the road existing which I needed to take! Finally I was able to make my way Southeast of Black point and simply bushwack 1 mile up through ground cover and sand to Black Point where I had some nice views of Mono Lake with the Eastern Sierras in the background.
