When is the best time to go to The East Side?
The best time to go to The East Side largely depends on your preferred activities, but generally, the shoulder seasons of late spring (May-June) and early autumn (September-October) offer the most balanced weather and fewer crowds.

For those keen on hiking, climbing, and other mountain sports, late spring and early autumn are ideal. The weather is typically pleasant, with warm days and cool nights, and most of the higher elevation trails are accessible. You'll avoid the peak summer heat and the larger crowds that come with it.

Early autumn, in particular, is stunning for its changing leaf colours, especially around areas like Bishop Creek Canyon and June Lake Loop. This makes it a fantastic time for scenic drives and photography, appealing to couples looking for picturesque getaways.

Travellers interested in fishing will find both late spring and early autumn excellent. The fish are active, and the conditions are generally favourable across the region's many lakes and streams.

While summer (July-August) is popular, especially for families looking to enjoy the lakes and warmer weather, it's also the busiest time.
