Bridgeport lake Bodie Ghost town area ride July 28th 29th 30th

[Ajb9]

This is an area I am familiar with and stay at the Paridise shores rv park in Bridgeport on the lake. They have several rv spots and also rent a few furnished cabins for those without an rv. However they fill up quick so a reservation is a must!
The riding is mostly scenic back roads some tight spots but nothing to challenging. Those interested iBodie offers a park tour. There are many old ghost towns and mining camps in the area and even a hot springs. Most destinations are near 100 mile loops and depending on the participation could be longer. Packing some back up gas is a good idea!

This is a ride I want to go on. A couple of questions, 1 is the rv spots large enough for my 43 ft trailer? 2 are you planning on riding all three days so I can plan. I should know this afternoon if I can go for sure.

And can we ride directly from "camp", or do we have to trailer to a staging area?

Yes I plan to ride all three days and would like to get up to Mt Patterson at 12k ft on one of them!

As we get closer to the ride, I was just wondering if you have planned which ride or destination on which day. The reason I ask is that it is looking like I won't be able to get there until Thursday night, and maybe not until late Thursday night.

No worries... We can do this on Friday .. Last I heard the park service was only doing the mine tour on the weekend but I will double check if I can get them to answer the phone.. I thinking if we can ride to Bodie early Sat even though it's might be busy.. spend a few hours there and ride the rest of the afternoon .. Thursday we can do a 6 hr ride along the river to the hot springs or leave early pack gas and make a long run outside of Hawthorn to a very unique mine camp on the mt called Bass Camp! Google it' either one is a great destination

OK, Bodie on Saturday and Hawthorne or Bass Camp on Thursday. What do you have in mind for Friday?
