McKinstry Lake & McKinstry Peak

[DrDmoney]

Went for a ride with my wife and dogs today, past all the crowds at Loon Lake and the Rubicon Trail. This is at the Northern most point of Desolation Wilderness overlooking the Granite Chief Wilderness. It also overlooks Hell Hole Reservoir where we will be running the trail next Saturday.

Awesome view!

Awesome view!

It’s one of the few places you can actually drive right up to the top of an 8000’ peak and have better than 180 degrees of view.

Awesome views for sure! A nice break from the heat too I bet.

Damn I miss the northwest. Texas just don't cut it with its African safari savannah like terrain. fricken shrubs everywhere. I want some real TREES

It’s what makes it difficult for me to consider moving I’m not a big fan of the Savannah or the jungle

Damn, that looks nice! It's not on fire either, which is a huge plus

That would be a drive I might be able to coax my wife into attending.
