Thursday, June 12th

5:30PM - 7:30PM

Meet at the BLM kiosk at the Happys parking area. We'll do a brief safety talk there before heading up the hill. 

 It's best to wear closed toed shoes and long pants so the thorny thistle doesn't get ya. Sun protection (hat, sunscreen, etc.) is also strongly advised. 

Bring lots of water - it's hot out there! We're doing evening sessions to avoid the heat of the day but the Tablelands will still be toasty until the sun goes down. 

 Join us in the parking lot afterward for some cold bubbly refreshments and community 

 Spread the word! The more folks join, the less tumbleweeds we'll see in the fall. 

Why?? Because if we pull thistle now, when it looks like the photo below, it reduces the number of full-blown tumbleweeds we see in the Fall. Russian Thistle is super invasive, crowds out native plant life, takes away critical food sources and habitat for desert critters, and is an all around grade A nuisance.

Join us for a night of fun!

David & Gayle Woodruff have lived in the Eastern Sierra area for most of their lives. They are the authors of eight books on local and regional history and are also presenters of a variety of local history programs. When not researching or writing, you’ll probably find them out hiking in their beloved Sierra Nevada Mountains.

There is probably no one more intimately tied to the Sierra Nevada Mountains than Norman Clyde. Yet to this day, he remains virtually unknown outside the world of alpine climbing. Freelance writer,  nature photographer, self-trained naturalist and extraordinary mountaineer, Norman Clyde achieved over 130 first ascents of some the Sierra Nevada’s (and West’s) most challenging peaks. Carrying a pack that often weighed over 80 lbs., the “crusty” Clyde participated in over a hundred search and rescues missions during his 60 years of scrambling and exploring through the Range of Light. Local historian and author David Woodruff assumes the character of this larger-than-life paragon in an entertaining and amusing 60-minute Chautauqua performance.

We’re back with our second installation of the Bishop Area Climbers Coalition Speaker Series with an inspiring presentation by Brooke Maushund.

📅 Tuesday, March 11th
⏰ 6:00 PM, doors open at 5:30 PM
📍 C5 Studios, Bishop

Local climber, skier, and avalanche forecaster Brooke Maushund has spent the past decade honing her mountain skills in Yosemite and the High Sierra. She has dedicated seasons to rescue and snow science, serving with Yosemite Valley Search and Rescue, the Sawtooth and Northwest Avalanche Centers, and as a Mt. Rainier climbing ranger. Last year, the ESAC forecaster made the well-trodden climbing pilgrimage from the Sierra to Patagonia, instead discovering El Chaltén and Bariloche through a skier's eyes. Join for a night of photos, art, and stories from her 3.5 months in Argentina last year, exploring and being a visiting forecaster at the country's first public avalanche forecast center.
