Hiking Mammoth to Minaret to Red Cones to Duck Pass Loop

Join KV and John as they backpack over Mammoth Pass into Red's Meadow and the Devil's Postpile en route to Camp 1 at Minaret Lake below the Minarets. From there they take the JMT/PCT South towards the Red Cones Junction for Camp 2. Continuing on the JMT/PCT South they head to Duck Lake Junction for Camp 3 and then ascend to Duck Lake and Duck Pass back to Mammoth Lakes to complete their 4-day, 3-night loop. Total distance was just shy of 40 miles and 7K' of climbing.
Live simple. Live well.

Very nice. I did the hike to Minaret lake a couple years ago. Beautiful.

[@KV_Aventuras]

I hope return there soon

Devil´s postpiles columnar basalt are cool part of the nature, so many different things can spew up from the earth

[@KV_Aventuras]

They’re spectacular. I have something similar here in Carlsbad behind my home on Mt. Calaveras. It’s a 10-12 million year old subluxation.
