Trail Overview
This picturesque trail brings one within three-quarters of a mile from Parker Lake, an alternate to the Parker Lake Trailhead route. It is, however, much more challenging. Various sections are very rocky. There are a few sections with off-camber and deep ruts. A few water crossings and mudbogs can swallow unsuspecting adventurers. The route ends at an aspen grove. There are many beautiful views of the Eastern Sierras and Mono Lake.

Difficulty
The beginning of the trail is very rocky. It mellows out in the middle section before coming to a few off-camber sandy areas, then a very wet area. Mugbogs/holes have swallowed a few past adventurers. A couple water crossings and puddles from snow runoff await.
