- Hannegan Pass
- Day Hiking
- Successful
- Road recommended for high clearance only
-
We hiked the road from the Yellow Aster Butte trail head to Twin Lakes as several sources said high clearance were required. My Subaru Outback would have bottomed out, a Forester may have been successful. The driver would have to have experience with navigating washouts, etc. The road is one way.
The trail is rough, but hikeable. The top is quite steep and made some nervous.
We had a great hike. The day was clear. The flowers are still blooming and the berries are ripe, The view was great the entire way. We had High Pass to ourselves for lunch.
