I love the little town of Bridgeport. It sits in an unlikely valley, huge and perfectly flat, at the foot of the eastern escarpment of the Sierra north of Lee Vining on Highway 395. At first glance, there’s not much there but a short 25 MPH stretch of the highway. But the setting and the little I know about it’s history give it a special something.
This town of 575 people became the county seat of Mono County by default. In 1861, the California legislature designated Aurora the county seat until two years later when it was determined that Aurora was in Nevada. The Bridgeport County Courthouse, built in 1881, is a stately Victorian building that still does county business. Look for it behind John Wayne in the original True Grit. The 1947 film noir classic, Out of the Past, starring Robert Mitchum, Jane Greer, and Kirk Douglas, was also partially filmed in Bridgeport. I saw it on TCM the other night. What a kick.
Bridgeport is also known for cold winters and often makes the national news with the country’s low temperature. The average low temperature in January is 8 degrees with a record low of -31. Most folks don’t spend the winter in Bridgeport.

But the main attraction is the beautiful setting. In early summer the valley floor is carpeted with irises. With Sawtooth Ridge, one of the most beautiful portions of the Sierra crest as a backdrop, it’s stunning. Bridgeport is also a gateway to other Sierra gems. My favorite is Buckeye Creek in the fall. Bright yellow aspens glow in a wide valley beneath rugged peaks. Look for carvings in the aspen trunks left by shepherds nearly 100 years ago.
