Bald Eagle Peak
About Bald Eagle Peak:
Sunny and South facing. The 700 foot granite south facing wall that is hidden from most vantage points near Lake Isabella can be seen from Saddle Spring Road. |
Approach: | Drive to Lake Isabella just below Kernville then head to Bodfish. Follow the main road through Bodfish where it will quickly snake up the mountain. At the saddle a dirt road heads off to the left. Take this road 5.3 miles up the mountain. When the road hits the ridge park in the little area to the right. The trail is about 30 feet past this parking spot and drops down to the left. Do not go up on the ridge. Contour below the ridge to the saddle. As the trail begins to drop into the saddle look for a fainter trail to the left. It leads to the main wall. If you start hiking up out of the saddle you have missed the trail to the main wall. |
