Shadow Lake via Agnew Meadows - Mammoth Lakes, CA

October 13, 2016


Distance: 8.5 miles RT
Elevation gain: 750 feet

Fall color hiking. Shadow Lake in High Sierra's Mammoth Lakes where John Muir Trail traverses Ansel Adams Wilderness. Fall colors are beautiful with mountains, lakes, rivers and.....the "range of light"(John Muir). You can also continue to hike into Ediza Lake (14 miles RT).  This is a beautiful hike with deep forest, rock and bolder formations and water falls all along the trail. With moderate effort, the reward you get is a breathtaking backdrop of Mount Ritter and Banner Peak above Shadow Lake.
