I haven't bouldered much outside California. Bishop is awesome and should be pretty nice in May.

In the spring you may want to be asking where is dry! I've been to places where its plenty warm to climb but the ground was muddy. Of course you can bring a tarp to protect the bouldering pad but I'd rather skip mud altogether. Judith

Bishop for sure. Guarenteed to be dry, or if it does rain will dry fast. Also Owens is not too far, temps ought to be just getting a little warm.Smile

Gotta say go to the Font of the US.

Temps might be a lttle warm for the sickest slopers, but there are enough problems for weeks all piled on top of each other.
