Quote from Guide to Northern California Backroads & 4-Wheel Drive

Date: August 28th (Sun)

Trail: Eagle Peak

Location: Northeast of Sonora, Pinecrest and Strawberry

Difficulty: Moderate. Most of the trail is easy but there are a few steep, rocky hills to climb. Suitable for all high-clearance SUVs with 4WD.

Features: A short and convenient outing to a remote, scenic mountain top. Enjoy hiking, biking and camping along trail and at nearby Pinecrest Lake, home to popular Meadowview and Pinecrest Forest Service Campgrounds.

Time & Distance: Complete loop measures 10.0 miles. Allow 2-3 hours.
Anyone who has been visiting this site looking for a trail to hit with us... This is your chance. smile This is the easiest of "moderate" rated trail in the book I quoted from. An Xterra is a very capable vehicle without any modifications. I have taken a stock Xterra to this trail before (w/ step rails on), and there was absolutely no problem. It does, however, require you to put it in 4Lo. wink

There is a 0.2 miles hike at the end of the trail, which allows you to get to Eagle Peak @ 9,386 ft. and to enjoy great scenary.

This will be a very relaxing trail run...good chance to learn how your 4wd system works, enjoy the fresh air, and meet some new friends. laugh
