| no partners | | I recommend hiking this loop Counterclockwise.
Parking: N39° 18.758' W120° 23.353'
No water. One PortaJohn that was clean & stocked.
Trailhead approx .14 mile in a generally NE direction. N39° 18.758' W120° 23.353'
From where you parked, cross the road, cross the chain then walk toward the NE corner of the large parking area.
NO SIGNS MARKING THE BEGINNING OF THE TRAILHEAD.
The trail is well defined & shaded. Follow Thor Ski Trail signs to the plateau/summit.
Once you reach the plateau/summit, walk along the plateau in an Easterly direction for your best views of Summit Valley. You'll readily notice the top of a ski lift as you walk westerly past it & on the trail.
Stay on the trail until you reach a very old tree that has withstood the test of time (see photo). From this point as you continue hiking NW there is no trail, essentially you'll be chosing your own trail for about .16 miles B4 turning SW & beginning to descend down through the forest. After approx .17 miles you'll want to start bushwhacking in a SE direction until you come to the road. A short .18 mile hike along the road & you'll arrive at the place you parked your vehicle. |
