The Kaweah Gap is a 10,689 foot pass that sits right on the Great Western Divide along the High Sierra Trail. It is a challenging climb no matter which direction you approach it from, but from the top you get stunning views over the the High Sierras, to the surrounding peaks and lakes below, and of Mount Stewart to the north and Eagle Scout Peak to the south, on either side of the pass. A metal plaque commemorates the founder of Sequoia National Park (1957-1931), after whom Mt Stewart is named. Arroyo Lake lies at the foot of the climb from the east, Precipice Lake on the west.
