Trail Overview

This narrow, fine-dirt trail begins in an open valley with expansive views of the mountains directly ahead. Heavy overgrown vegetation along the route may cause pinstriping or wheel scratches, and the fine-dirt surface can become considerably more difficult when wet. After about 1.5 miles, the trail enters a dense forest where ruts reach 6–8 inches deep and rock ledges reach up to 6 inches high. Once in the forest, there are numerous level, shaded campsites throughout the area.

Difficulty

This trail is rated Level 2 because of the 6–8-inch ruts, rock ledges up to 6 inches, and overgrown vegetation. There are no major obstacles, but pinstriping is possible, and wet conditions may increase difficulty.

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 volcanic activity, glaciers, and the uplift of the Sierra Nevada shaped its dramatic landscape.
