Bristlecone Pine Forest to Mexican Mine Ruins Trail

Route Description for Bristlecone Pine Forest to Mexican Mine Ruins Trail

While short in distance and without much incline, the Bristlecone Pine Forest to Mexican Mine Ruins Trail is at a high elevation. It is therefore important that you are conscious about the risks of elevation sickness and that you monitor yourself and others within your group for its symptoms.

With your vehicle parked at the Shulman Grove Picnic Area, follow the pathway as it makes its way to the south. Continuing on along the pathway, it will soon deliver you to a set of abandoned cabins where you should take some time and explore the historical site. A number of educational plaques exist to help inform you on what you are seeing. Once you are ready, backtrack your steps towards the trailhead and your waiting vehicle at the Schulman Grove Picnic Area.
