Eastern Brooks Lakes - 8/25/13

The Eastern Brooks Lakes are a secluded spot in the Eastern Sierras. The trailhead is located near the Little Lakes Valley trailhead, but it is off to the left. This trail gets very little foot traffic, as most people take the more popular Little Lakes Valley hike. The trail to the lakes is about a 2 mile round trip hike, and is rated as difficult in the trail guide I got at the store. I didn't find it nearly as daunting as I expected. I hiked this trail one day, and hiked the Little Lakes trail the next. While the Little Lakes trail is definitely more popular, I would still recommend this trail, because with views like this, why not do both?
