Vermilion Valley Resort is a small camp/hotel on Lake Edison near Mono Springs. There is a store, restaurant, camping area, and cabins. There is a ferry that picks up hikers and takes them the 4 miles across the lake to the resort. I had not planned on going since I was resupplying in Mammoth Lakes. However, the thought of a good hot meal and a chance to experience another trail icon proved to much to resist. So I hiked an easy ten miles to the dock and waited for the ferry.
The sun was shining. There was a beach. That Guy and Chef were there. We went swimming. What a great afternoon. I felt like I was on vacation. Pinch me please! Once at VVR we saw Momma Bear and Monkey along with Desert Fox and other hikers. Dinner was pasta primavera. So it was a nice little stop before Mammoth, especially after hiking so hard and I thoroughly enjoyed the VVR experience.
