Red Lake Peak, Mountain summit in Alpine County, California, US.
Red Lake Peak rises to an elevation of 10,040 feet within the Sierra Nevada range, featuring exposed volcanic rock formations near its summit point.
John C. Fremont and Charles Preuss conducted the first documented climb of an identifiable Sierra Nevada peak when they reached this summit in 1844.
The peak serves as a destination for mountaineers and hikers who follow established routes through the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest to reach the top.
Access to the trailhead requires a parking permit at Meiss Meadow SNO-PARK between November and May, available through the California State SNO-PARKS website.
The mountain contains two separate summits of climbable volcanic rock, with routes ranging from moderate hiking paths to Class III and IV climbing sections.
