It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world
Except for Lola
Lo-Lo-Lo-Lo-Lola
This was a hike to Mount Lola (elevation of 9,146 feet and prominence of 2,082 feet). The high point of Nevada County is on the summit, and the high point of Sierra County is about 1.5 miles away along the Ridgeline on the north side of Mount Lola, at an elevation of 8,855 feet.
The last few miles to the trailhead were on a well graded gravel road that was fine for my rental crossover SUV.
I took a nice well maintained trail to the summit. There were some wildflowers along the way and there were 3 creek crossings that might have been a challenge in wet weather, but were fine on this day.
After enjoying the nice views at the summit, I followed the north ridge to get to the Sierra County high point. The Sierra County line was about 1.25 miles from the summit, and the county high point was another 1/4 mile atop a sub peak. From there, I made an off-trail descent back to the trail, which I took back to the TH.
This turned out to be a very enjoyable hike, and it's one that I would do again. |
