    Tips

    October 25, 2025

    The Sphinx Route is a rugged, unmarked path branching from the Egypt Lake area toward the Sphinx and Scarab Lakes basin. It involves steep ascents, uneven footing, and limited signage, making it suitable only for experienced hikers comfortable navigating alpine terrain. The route offers dramatic views of the surrounding peaks but should be attempted with caution, proper gear, and awareness of changing mountain conditions.
