Fish Slough Road is a solid gravel route just north of Bishop, cutting through open desert, wetlands, and volcanic rock formations. The surface is mostly hard-packed with some washboard and sandy patches—I recommend going with wider tires, and don’t forget water and sun protection.

Starting point for White Mountain Peak at an altitude of around 3,550 m. The journey there is not easy, it is about 15 miles (about 24 km) along gravel roads, so off-road tires and a car with ground clearance are a good idea. Overnight stays are permitted in the parking lot.
