Overview
This is a moderate loop trail to Phipps Pass in Desolation Wilderness.
This trail goes by Crag Lake, Shadow Lake, Stony Ridge Lake 1-032 Dam, Rubicon Lake, Lake Genevieve, and Meeks Bay Resort RV and Tent Sites.
As of July 2019: For the first half mile east of the PCT, the Genevieve Trail is very overgrown and difficult to follow. Be prepared to do some bushwacking and route finding.
