This extremely invasive, non-native plant is a massive problem we hope to mitigate this spring and summer. The wet winter/spring last season created the perfect conditions for a complete thistle explosion in the Eastern Sierra! 💥 Piles of tumbleweeds filled with thousands of painful thorns and seeds completely smothered our beloved canyon. 😢 This incredibly aggressive plant has been outcompeting key native species and making for rather unpleasant climbing. With YOUR help, we can hopefully prevent another Russian Thistle takeover. 🥊 Now is the time to get to work as new thistle sprouts have already started to come up. Fortunately for us, this new growth has not had the chance to develop seeds or those pesky thorns. Come join us as we battle it out against this detrimental invasive species! Sign up here!

Join us as we celebrate the Bishop debut of Pretty Strong, a “climbing film about women, by women, for everyone.” Tickets will be $10.
From 5.13 big walls in Yosemite to 5.14 sport climbs in Mexico to V14 boulder problems in Colorado, Pretty Strong follows eight of the world’s strongest female climbers as they explore new climbing areas, send hard projects, and push the boundaries of the sport and themselves. Putting badass ladies front and center, this film is about some of the best climbers in the world—some you know, some you don’t—doing what they do best: crushing hard rock climbs. Your palms will sweat from the dizzying heights, your imagination will expand with the breathtaking landscapes, and your motivation will soar from the determination and try-hard of these strong women. The climbers featured include Nina Williams, Katie Lambert, Daila Ojeda, Hazel Findlay, and more. Pretty Strong is a climbing film about women, by women, and for everyone.

We are THRILLED to welcome photographer Jim Herrington to Bishop on Sunday, November 3 to enlighten us with a slideshow about his new book, The Climbers. About the presentation, Jim says, “This is an important one for me. My book was originally inspired by early 20th Century Sierra Nevada climbers. The first photos of the project began here in 1998 and I finished the writing in the Owens Valley nearly two decades later. This area has also been my home away from home for a majority of my life.” Tickets will be sold for $10 both online and at the door.
Rotpunkt documents the advent, the agony and the art of the redpoint through Alex Megos’s efforts to redefine the boundaries of the form. The film will trace the redpoint—which transformed rock climbing from an engineering problem into a brilliant test of mental and physical strength—from its origins with a ragtag bunch of tights-wearing revolutionaries in rural Bavaria, to its golden era with Wolfgang Güllich, to its new ideal in the German phenom Megos as he battles to unlock new levels of human potential.
Join us at 7:00 pm for happy hour with swag, featuring a raffle and silent auction! Alex Megos will be in the here to host this screening along with the filmmaker, Ken Etzel. After the film, they'll be available for Q&A. Tickets are limited to the first 100 attendees for $15.
Join your local climbing organization for a fun night of gathering! We'll be fundraising for the new climbing ranger program (https://friendsoftheinyo.org/jobs/) and toasting to the upcoming climbing season. Food will be sold by the Rolling Chef food truck. See ya there!
Come grill and chill with your local climbers coalition and catch up on the latest happenings. Meat and veggie options available for $5 donation. Bring a plate and utensil if possible.
