Looks like a fantastic ride and your photos are beautiful. I love that part of the country. I first rode my bike there (in the Westgard Pass area of the White Mountains) in 1976 while I was taking UC Berkeley's undergrad advanced field geology class. Later, I did my Ph.D. research in the range east of the Whites and I subsequently taught a couple of years of UCLA's undergrad advanced field geology class where we were based in Bishop's White Mountain Research Station...I did a lot of riding in that area. I've also ridden from Barcroft Station both up to White Mountain Peak and down to Bishop via Silver Canyon. The only double century I've done is the Davis DC. Perhaps my next one should be this one.
