This is an easy 3-day trip. Trucks can drive into Leavitt Lake, but there was plenty of privacy.
Curious why there is no shown trail connecting the trail across upper West Walker. The waterfall along the PCT is a good target.

Nice high country loop trail lots of lakes and steep Eastern Sierra backdrop. Some rocky trail sections in the middle, otherwise not difficult.

Nice hike. Didn’t rate higher due to lack of trees and rocky rubble terrain. Shamrock lake is beautiful.

We hiked the figure 8 trails around Saddle Bag Lake and 20 Lakes, continuing out & back to Conness Lake. This hike takes place in the Inyo National Forest, Hoover Wilderness, just out of the Yosemite National Park. In fact, the Conness Peak lies on the dividing line between these two areas. The figure 8 loop around Saddle Bag Lake and 20 Lakes brings one to owe of the natural beauty all around the area. This moderate hike, to which we added an out & back segment to Conness Lakes where we were able to observe rock climbers at the Conness Peak. Pretty amazing area.
