Nobles
Emigrant Trail traverses the northern border of the park, skirting
the highest peaks along the way. It drops south to Hat Lake and turns
northwest and exits the park near Manzanita Lake. The Park Highway,
California Hwy 89, follows the trail for several miles northwest from
Hat Lake, top left. Right, a sample of the terrain that the emigrants
had to negotiate on their journey. Noble tried to improve on Peter
Lassen's trail which curved north then dropped south of his namesake
park. Nobles's Trail may have been shorter, but the traveling was
no easier. |
