Bouldering in the Buttermilks, Happy Boulders
Photos by Trevor Pound - I have been blessed to have lived in the Sierra Nevada for six years. Between the classic granite you will find in Tahoe, the awesome pocketed tuff in Mammoth, and the beautiful, very large boulders in Bishop, you could climb something new every day for years. We went to Bishop for a little while and explored the Happys, the Sads, and the Buttermilks. I love the Sierras and can't wait to spend some more time exploring the landscapes and the hundreds of thousands of climbs just within a few hours of each other.
