There are, rare for trails in the US, two options for this section above Sonora Pass. The more gradual eastern trail is the main route of the PCT. The shorter direct trail is steep and has a dotted line on the Komoot map. The views from here are amazing. The tree line begins here at about 3100 m which is a little more than 10 000 feet. Above this point are just grass or, in this area, bare gravel dirt.
