Flying into Bishop, California is a great experience. The weather in the Owens Valley is good year-round. There are 330+ days of sunshine, the climate is relatively mild with low precipitation and an unforgettable view over some of the most beautiful sights that this vast region has to offer. Within one hour, a flying tour can take you past Mt. Whitney, through Mammoth Pass, high above the alpine lakes of the Sierra Nevada, up and down canyons awash with fall colors, out over the twists and turns of the Owens River, or into Death Valley for lunch at The Oasis.
