    Tips

    June 27, 2020

    Duck Pass trail climbs the forested hillside behind Coldwater Campground and goes past Arrowhead, Skelton, and Barney lakes before going over Duck Pass. A side trail to Emerald Lake offers an alternate route to Skelton Lake or the option of a loop past Barret Lake returning to the west side of Lake Mary. Common destinations beyond Duck Pass include Duck Lake, with an intense, deep-blue color, and nearby Purple Lake. Climbing over the pass you can drop down to joint the John Muir Trail and loop to Iva Bell Hot Springs. fs.usda.gov/recarea/inyo/recarea/?recid=20496
