Trail Overview
Cody Lake trail is a short out/back jaunt to a high alpine Sierra Nevada lake that is remote and beautiful. The trail ends overlooking the lake and requires a very steep hiking descent to reach the shore. The trail is easy, but towards the end by the lake, it becomes quite narrow, which can make turning around difficult. This general area was burned by the Caldor fire a few years ago, so viewing the new succession of plant life is interesting. Occasionally, deadfall crosses the road, so a chainsaw can come in handy.
