About this event
The appeal of this drive is in the magnificent views the whole way. The trail up from Sierra City is a narrow shelf road with some drop-offs to keep it exciting.
The trail ends about a half-mile from the summit, so from there we switch to hiking. For those who don't want to take the hike, there are some pretty amazing views from the parking area too.
The reward for the hike is one of the most spectacular viewpoints in the Sierra Nevada. A truly not-to-be-missed fire lookout.
The return trip by Packer Lake is an easy drive. Possible dinner at Los Dos Hermanos in Sierraville.
