This is a beautiful 4 mile hike from wetlands at 6400 ft to subalpine lakes at 7800 ft up the Western slope of Mount Eddy through a diversity of habitats with opportunities for swimming to refresh ourselves in Deadfall Lakes. Copeland’s Owl’s-clover, Gentians, Shrubby Cinquefoil, the inflated colorful seedpods of the Siskiyou Milkvetch and several rare plants adapted specifically to the serpentine bearing soils of Mount Eddy are among the treasures awaiting us. For those requiring it, a longer but less strenuous route from the Parks Creek Summit is available on this trip upon request.
