Eagle's Nest (Lower)

California > Southern-Wester… > Hwy 41: Fresno… > Shuteye Ridge > Big Sleep Area > Eagles Nest

Description

Lower area of Eagles Nest centered around a splitter chimney with arete climbing "Fin It to Win It".

Getting There

Similar to Upper Eagle's Nest...

Take Shuteye Pass Trail leading right off the parking lot to the slab saddle. Then head right towards Eagle's Nest. Once the cairns put you on top, head right, over the dome following a foot trail. Eventually, go through a notch and Upper Wall is off to the left. Now continue going down a short ways past some boulders to Lower Wall.

There is an alternative trail that splits off from Shuteye Pass trail early on that goes right to Eagles Nest, but it is hard to find going up. Easier to find going down with well-marked cairns down mostly slab.
