Bonney Butte via Bonney Meadows Trail Hike

Overview

The best time to do this hike is during the months of September and October when HawkWatch International has volunteers at the top of Bonney Butte doing raptor counts and banding during the fall migration. This route gives you access using a trail from a paved road although you could also reach the Butte by driving awful FR 4891 via the Terrible Traverse (high clearance recommended) or the good gravel road to the Boulder Lake Trailhead .
