Photograph Liberty Bell
Liberty Bell is just one mile south of Washington Pass. This peak is part of a group of spires, which include North and South Early Winters Spires, Concord Tower, and Lexington Tower.
If you’ve decided to take in the viewpoints driving Hwy 20 through the park, be sure to check out Diablo Lake as well.
If you’re up for being more active and moving around, check out Trappers Peak / Thornton Lake

Hike to Cutthroat Pass
Looking for a distinctive high-country hike just east of the pass? Cutthroat Pass is a hearty day hike perfect for gaining elevation and views with every step. It's even more dynamic as a point-to-point, exiting via the Pacific Crest Trail if you have two vehicles.
