Hello Larry
Thanks, for the update.

We were just in the area a couple of weeks ago. We made it to Keeler, Stink Sock Spring, and the Owens Lake Plaza.
Unfortunately, we did not have time to drive up the hill to Cero Gordon this visit.

I look forward to our next trip to the Eastern Sierra is a wonderful area of California.

Hey Daytrippen, My name is Larry and I am the assistant caretaker on site. Since the sale from Sean to the group of new owners in July of 2018, im not quite sure about the waivers. Often we get visitors that have no idea they need to email or check in. As this property is very remote, this sort of thing can happen. Sean and his family are still an integral part of the history of Cerro Gordo and everything else he states above is still true. We encourage those that dont call or email in advance to check in with the on site caretaker.
