Porcupine Peak - Klamath Mountains

The hike starts at the further lake--Toad Lake--then crosses the ridge to the closer lake--Porcupine Lake. Two of the more famous California mountains in the distance--Mt. Eddy (left) and Mt. Shasta (right).

The Trinity Alps Wilderness.







Back down at Porcupine Lake where I did some fishing. Looking up at the Porcupine Peaklet.



California Pitcher Plants. AKA Cobra Lilies. Endemic to these mountains. A carnivorous plant.





Not the best place to park probably.
