Upper Bristlecone Trail

The trail begins in a forested area with white fir and aspen and climbs until you reach the rugged, exposed upper slopes with bristlecone pines. The trail is easy to follow and you can stop and look at the view. Wild horses are often seen on the grass at the ski slopes in the late spring, summer and fall. The flexibility of this trail can be appreciated by all levels of hikers. There are plenty of lunch spots along the trail, but no water to hike to.
