Hi. I'm seeking advice on good places to go this weekend.
I will be in Bishop area with a friend on Thursday and Friday and in Lone Pine from Sat-Mon. I was contemplating hiking Mt Tom, Hurd Peak, University Peak, Mt Mallory, Mt Irvine.
However, with the snowfall, seems I need to re-evaluate my plans.
Any suggestions on interesting peaks I could hike (class 1/2/easy3) given the current conditions? I don't have much snow equipment nor do I have chains for my car or a 4x4 Also.. I know very little about avy dangers, not sure how big a factor this would be.
Thanks!
