There are many opportunities for fun and adventure along the Ebbetts Pass Scenic Byway, a 61-mile stretch of California Routes 4 and 89 traversing the mighty Sierra Nevada Mountains. This post explores several points of interest along this spectacular drive, including Ebbetts Peak, a small portion of the famed Pacific Crest Trail, and alpine lakes. There is so much to explore along this national scenic byway.
Devils Postpile National Monument, located in the Mammoth Lakes, protects the unique columnar basalt formation that is the Devils Postpile. On this adventure, we explore the national monument and earn our junior ranger badges. Highlights of this trip include the hike to Rainbow Falls and viewing the Devils Postpile from the PCT/JMT.
In this post, we return to Hilltop Hot Springs and visit Wild Willy's, both off Benton Crossing along U.S. 395. We also have a delicious brunch recommendation while in Mammoth.
