| no partners | | This is a short but strenuous hike to the scenic Robinson Lake out of the Onion Valley Campground. The trailhead is located on the campground loop between campsites #7 and #8. There is no trailhead parking in the campground so you must use the parking lot for the Kearsarge Pass/Onion Valley Trailhead. The trail is in good shape except for a few spots where it can be difficult to follow as it climbs through a boulder field up to the lake. I accidentally erased my Garmin gps track but was able to assign coordinates to the photos. The distance and AEG is an estimate.
It was a beautiful sunny morning and I took my time taking photos and stopping to catch my breath on the steep sections. I only encountered one other person on the way to the lake, a young woman who passed me going up the steep boulder field. I explored around the complete circumference of the lake stopping to relax (nap) in the meadow at the south end before heading back. |
