About Bishop Pass & Dusy Basin
The trail to Bishop Pass is one of the great hikes on the southeast side of the Sierras. The trail leads through a succession of beautiful lake basins to a high pass on the Sierra Crest, along the way enjoying great views of Hurd Peak, Mount Goode, the Inconsolable Range and Mount Agassiz. Extend the hike a short distance beyond the pass to a viewpoint with panoramic vistas of Dusy Basin and the peaks of the Black Divide.
