Yes it is. I go to Cal Poly SLO so I hiked up the hill behind campus. I have been on Bishop's too.

Here's my trail reports from earlier this year with a bunch more pictures for any mountain bikers that may be passing through the area:

Madonna: http://dirttreaders.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=11394&hilit=San+Luis+Obispo

Nice pictures. I don't have the skills or equipment for even Cerro San Luis. I tried it with my very old bike and it was not working. I can't cope with such rocky terrain on the up or downhill. I tried some downhill and scared myself out of my mind thinking I was going to endo after hitting a ditch or rock. I will stick to the canyon roads. :) Too bad there is only Prefumo/See Canyon and Turri Road as far as twisty stuff (although Highland Drive as you go up to the trail head on Bishop's is nice but short). Which means I come home to ride in the Santa Monicas often.

I also got lost on the way down Cerro San Luis. I ended up way out in that open space and eventually found my way to the Madonna Inn grounds. Nowhere near where I started...

In my defense, it was my first (and only( hike up there and this was the view (so no nice shots of Bishop's :(). I was glad to have my bike to be able to get back home.

Top of Prefumo Canyon April 2012_ 001 by Max_911S_fahrer, on Flickr

And here is the view from the top of Prefumo Canyon. I normally just go to the top and back down Prefumo. Once I went all the way to the bottom of See Canyon, almost to Avila Beach, and back the way I came. So I climbed both Prefumo Canyon and See Canyon.
