    In this video Ill be driving to the peak of Mount Patterson in the snow. The mountain peak sits at an elevation of 11,679ft. above the sea level and is located in Mono County, California, near the Nevada border. It’s one of the highest elevation roads of California and known for being one of the most dangerous. We will also be exploring the old mining town of Belfort where back in the 1800's $500,000 dollars worth of silver and gold were pulled from the Sweetwater mountains. Hope you enjoy the video.

    I did it October 12 2024. It was so windy and cold but I didn’t have a jacket ( long sleeves and heavy sweatpants) . There was a jeep group of 22. Many dirt bikes and a few UTV’s. I used Burcham flat road and the switchbacks would have been terrifying in a bigger vehicle. The fall colors are awesome now and there were fish in the streams I crossed. I’ll definitely be going back. Cellphone service is available most of the way up there .
