Twenty years ago, I drove the family up to Mono Hot Springs well after the snow had melted. The road in is extremely difficult, steep, and in many places, a single lane with traffic in two directions and very few pullouts along a very steep incline. If you fall, you die. I had a guy in a pickup coming at us at 40 mph, apparently completely unaware of the situation, and I was leaning on the minivan horn to try to alert him to what would have likely been a fatal impact (that would knock us down a 1000 ft slope). The camping there was very primitive, and past Shaver lake, I doubt there would be any place to charge an ebike. There is no way I would take any bike on that road (and never went back by car).

I think I read she was from Atlanta, and doing this trip before starting med school?
