North Lake road

The road is very scenic. It’s a partially gravel steep and narrow road in good conditions with no safety railings. It’s cliff-hugging and winding (but passenger car friendly). The road is subject to closure to most vehicles during the winter months, usually not opening until mid- or late-April, due to snow removal. It’s 2.0 miles long.

It’s one of the highest roads of California climbing up to 2.854m (9,363ft) above the sea level. Located in Inyo National Forest, this is a fantastic location for photographers. Trailers and RVs are prohibited. Risk of falling rocks. Active bear area.
