Tales Along El Camino Sierra the topic of next Wylder Hope Valley history presentation

Wylder Hotel Hope Valley continues its Eastern Sierra history series, with an entertaining presentation, Tales Along El Camino Sierra on Sunday, March 13 at 2:00 p.m.

Using rare and seldom seen photographs, local historian and author David Woodruff recounts the impressive and fascinating efforts promoted by boosters in Eastern California and Western Nevada, to get a modern roadway (Highway 395) built in their region. From record-setting flights over Mt. Whitney to partnering with a World’s Fair, the ballyhoo created by the Inyo Good Road Club was amusing, improbable, and effective.

The 50-minute presentation will be held inside the heated tent at Wylder Resort on Hwy 88, just one mile east of the junction of Hwy 88 & 89 in Hope Valley. The program is free and open to the public.

Please call (760) 920-8061 for more information.
