Devils Postpile Loop

11/10/22

Devils postpile is freakin awesome. The hike isn’t too hard, mostly flat. If you want to get to the top of the postpile you’ll gain some elevation. The top looks like a dinosaur skin. You can take the bus down to red’s meadow or if you have a handicap placard you can drive down. Not sure if all private vehicles are allowed to drive down or not.
