エルドラド郡の峠・トップ2

Sitting at 7,377 feet above sea level, Echo Summit is a California State Historic Landmark, marking the high-altitude training site of the 1968 Olympics. There is a large parking area available, along with a trailhead for both the Tahoe Rim Trail and the Pacific Crest Trail.

This is the highest point near the Echo Lake trailhead, offering great views. You'll need to hike west along the shore of Lower Echo Lake, then start climbing into the hills, in order to get a better vista.

Dicks Pass will be the last time along the PCT that you are hiking above 9,000 feet (going northbound). It is often covered in snow up until early summer. The nicest views are a little bit below the top, not at the pass itself.

Dicks Pass is located at 2,858 meters above sea level. From there, we have an incredible view of lakes Dicks and Fontanillis! A great reward after climbing the pass.

Unfortunately, Armstrong Pass Trail is currently closed. The cleanup after the Caldor Fire will probably last until August 2022. You can find updates on the TAMBA homepage: https://tamba.org/trails/trail-conditions/

Awesome trail to Monument pass, that seems recently to have been routed a few hundred yards to the west

Fun downhill ride from the Tahoe Rim Trail to Fountain Place (and on toward Meyers), but also useful as a mostly bikable uphill trail, e.g., as part of a loop with Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. https://www.komoot.com/highlight/149917
