This is a beutiful hike, my favorite out of the 8 that I've done in this area this year. 

You access the trail from Henness Pass Road.  It's  dirt, and is accessible via 2wd low clearance.

This is an easy hike up the PCT from Henness Pass Road.  It's a 3 mi RT with 657' of gain.  You'll be rewarded with some great views.

Consider hitting one of the other summits along this road on your way back to camp.

All driving referenced for this trip was done with Margaret, my Subaru OBW.

Road conditions can change after winter snow melt and heavy rains so be warned.
