Aurora Canyon - Bodie

 Andreas Groos on November 3, 2023
Gravel Segment
From CA-182 to Park St, Bridgeport, Mono County, California
Starting from Bridgeport it's a 100% gravel, Basically one steady climb up to 9200ft with vast views of the Sierra Nevada on the other side of the valley. In the end you come to the well-preserved ghost town of Bodie. Turn around or continue back to Bridgeport via 270 (mostly paved) and a bit of the 395 (narrow road with traffic). Be cautious of the weather as it can get extremely hot and cold up around Bodie.
