Overview

This smooth, easy, scenic trail leads down a mellow hill to one of the white sandy beaches on Crowley Lake, near Mammoth Lakes, California, and just outside the Long Valley Caldera in the Eastern Sierras. From the beach, the southwest view is a snowy mountain backdrop and white sands contrasting the clear blue water of the lake. New off-roaders in stock 4x4 vehicles and experienced wheelers in modified rigs will all enjoy this mellow, scenic trail, the beautiful beach, and the unique sight of the Little Crowley Columns.
