Itinerary description

A fine stroll through Yosemite's high country to a very easy peak, Mt. Lewis. It's a very enjoyable hike that anyone can do. It's probably the easiest walk-up peak I've climbed, very shallow gradients. The payoff is very nice too, an unobstructed view to Mono Lake on one side, and clear views toward Kuna/Koip peaks. If you are looking for an easy day, this is a very good choice.

Parking area for Mono Pass. It's a rather small lot, so get there early!
