Big McGee Lake is a fascinating lake in Inyo National Forest. From the lake you can see Red and White Mountain with different colors and rock formations contrasting with the turquoise color of the lake. The hike to the lake will offer stunning views; it follows McGee Creek, going between aspens, pines and small lakes. This can be a long day hike that must be planned, or it can be done as a multi-day backpacking trip. Trekking poles and wearing good hiking boots can be very helpful.
