シエラ郡のおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Upper Sardine Lake is the largest reservoir along Sardine Lake Road. There is a magnificent backdrop of rocky and towering peaks making this one of the most picturesque spots you'll ever journey on two wheels.

Lower Sardine Lake is slightly smaller than Upper Sardine Lake, but it's no less impressive. The water can be viewed from a number of different spots and is a popular spot for a bunch of different groups of recreationalists.

Generally a dry rock crossing at this stretch. Good permanent water source.

I have never seen a crazier approach to a Fire Lookout than the Sierra Buttes Fire Lookout. Standing proud on top of the rocks of Sierra Buttes this Fire Lookout can be reached by climbing these insanely placed steel staircases. From the Fire Lookout (at 8587 ft.) you can look down upon the Upper and Lower Sardine Lakes, and the magnificent Sierra Buttes surrounding you.

On top of the ridge line you may find snow well into the summer, but you'll also find near 360 degree views. Mount Washington and Elwell to the north, Sierra Buttes to the south, and the entire Lakes Basin area to the north and east.

Don't let the "Little" in Little Bear lake let you think it's any lesser than its Big counterpart. Little Bear Lake offers you the tranquility and seclusion of a private alpine lake. A perfect spot for a quick break or picnic while hiking.

The unnamed summit along the ridge shows recent signs of volcanic activity, with several characteristic towers of lava exposed, that cooled off into layers that look like pillows.

Two trails run along the ridge, with the PCT here on the western side, marked by impressive standing boulders.
