Inyo National Forest

A sunrise in the eastern Sierra is unlike any other moment in this mountain range and there's no better place to witness this moment than Inyo National Forest. The dramatic rock faces and high jagged peaks contrast the gentle mountains and smooth granite domes of the western Sierra. The high mountain peaks overlooking clear alpine lakes are some of the most spectacular of the Sierra, and they capture the early light perfectly. One could spend a lifetime of mornings just in Inyo national forest.
