Wilderness Area Descriptions
Trailhead maps
There are some great guidebooks that are available at the Ranger
Stations. We have some popular maps
in our travel section.
Don't forget, you will need a Wilderness
Permit in order to get on the trails during the busy season.
There are great maps and books
available at the Ranger Stations, so don't leave camp with out some.
Some of the wilderness is inhabited by mountain
lions, and bears...oh my. Please be
conscious of nature. Leave
no trace.
If you are unfamiliar with the territory, you may wish to consider
a certified guide to ensure
a safe trip. Commercial guiding on the National Forest is strictly
regulated, and on some trails may not be allowed. The Mount Whitney
Trail is an area of particular concern. For current information and
more details about the availability of guides for the Whitney Trail
or other trails, contact the Inyo National Forest.
