Overview
There's a lot to explore in this area; dirt roads that connect Fish Camp to Mariposa and Yosemite National Park (Wawona). Overall, this out-and-back starts with a regular climb from Fish Camp, then the road goes two miles downhill and then continues a solid climb all the way to the top. <br><br>There are just a few turns that you have to do to get to the top along County Road 17 (Summit Road), Tenmile Grade (4S04), and Devil's Peak Summit Road #4S31. Follow the map or <a href='/mobile-app'>MTB Project mobile app</a> and you are going to be fine. <br><br>This makes for a great workout with a rewarding view and cool downhill on the defunct moto trails Chowchilla Trail (21E340) and Mountain Trail (21E248). On the way back, reserve some energy for the two miles uphill to Fish Camp. Grab a hamburger and a beer at Tenaya Lodge that is just across the street.
