Stuff to do around ORG/Bishop

Planning on heading to Bishop in about a week, looking for some idea of things to do in that area on a rest day(s) from climbing. Hiking, backpacking,...etc.

Thanks in advance.

• Hiking: less snowy hiking options include the Druids and Tungsten Peak.
• Canyon exploration around Tungsten Peak (short) or in the Inyo Mtns (longer)
• Checking out the petrogylphs on the Tablelands
• Scrambling at Casa Diablo, Grouse Mountain or the around the Buttermilks
• Skiing (x-country, downhill or backcountry)
• Snowshoeing
• Black Sheep coffee shop/Great Basin Bakery loitering (less heinous than Schat's)

Black Sheep is the best coffee in Bishop. Great Basin Bakery has better baked goods and is way less of a tourist trap than that Shat place.

2nd the vote for the hot springs by Green Church

Keough's is also fun

As is Benton Hot Springs

Black Eagle Camp is a cool hike in the White Mountains, might be a bit chilly this time of year

No shortage of things to do.
