Know Before You Go:

  • Check trail conditions for snow levels in the early season, if you hike here in the spring expect the lakes to still be frozen.

  • A great, long day-hike to escape the crowds of Sequoia with scenic 360 views of the surrounding mountain ridges.

  • Choose The Watchtower route during the summer season for even better views.
