The route follows Emigrant Trail (19E01) which runs from just east of Bear Valley to the Mosquito Lakes paralleling Highway 4, then takes a short section of 2015-built trail to connect with Pacific Valley Road and the Milk Ranch Meadow trail (20E01) into the Carson-Iceberg Wilderness.
Still lots of water and greenery as the mountains have had some good summer rains on top of the huge snows last winter. Excellent trail conditions with one exception - from the Cape Horn access point east for about 1.5 miles the trail has had no recent maintenance and is mostly faint and occasionally non-existent, with lots of downed trees and only some faded pink ribbons to help stay on track (GPS recommended). Otherwise an excellent day, with lots of other trails for future exploring in this great area. |
