Davis Peak, Alpine lakes wilderness

Starting the adventure

The Davis Peak trail is a great day hike with some of the best views of Mt Stuart and Mt Daniel along with many other numerous peaks. Sitting at 6,426 foot the peak has an old fire lookout along the trail just before the summit. 
With switchback after switchback the hike is mildly strenuous. After you reach remnants of an old wildfire the trees thin out with majestic mountain landscapes completing surrounding you.
If you enjoy photography its worth your time!!
