Trail Overview

This fine-dirt trail transitions from an open section of forest into dense trees while traveling up and over several rolling hills. Ruts remain minor at only 2–3 inches deep, with no significant obstacles along the route. Camping is plentiful throughout, with numerous level, shaded campsites beneath the dense forest canopy. Overall, this is an easy, scenic route that is van and trailer-friendly and provides access to Punch Bowl Cutoff. The fine-dirt surface can become more difficult when wet.

History

Inyo National Forest was established in 1907 and today protects a vast section of the Eastern Sierra surrounding Mammoth Lakes. The area has a long history of Native American use, mining, ranching, and recreation, while its dramatic landscape was shaped by volcanic activity, glaciers, and the uplift of the Sierra Nevada.
