California has to borders: Pacific Ocean, and Sierra Nevada mountains. To the north is Oregon, home to northern Sierra with the nickname of Cascades. Yosemite is our playground, but they have good places to. I was reading about Talapus Lake in Oregon. It’s nice up there, but not like here.
This is Bear Creek Spire in Little Lakes Valley. Its on eastern Sierra Nevada, near state line. This is US 395 a famous road for people who like pictures. Ansel Adams took a lot of pictures here. He used a really old fashioned camera and I don’t mean because it’s film!
Its desert here but there’s so much snow Spanish and Mexican people call them “Snowy Mountains” which is what Sierra Nevada means.
