Trail Overview

This trail takes you near the 395 up to a viewpoint just below Mono Jim Peak. It travels through a valley where cows graze up to an area overlooking Convict Lake, Mono Lake, Mount Morrison, Laurel Mountain, and the Glass Mountain Range. It starts off sandy but turns into a rocky trail with some very deep articulated spots near the end. There is a cattle gate that should be closed when passed.

Difficulty

Most of this trail is relatively easy but the last section has a very deep articulated rutted section that can be 4x4 high clearance only. There are a few large rocks along the sides of the trail to avoid that can cause an early trip to get a fresh alignment.
