Route Description for Methuselah Trail
Prior to attempting the Methuselah Trail, it is important to remember that it is within the high altitude alpine environment of the Sierra Nevada Mountains and you should be observant of the effects of altitude sickness. Especially if you are coming from near sea-level, take your time and drink lots of water as the Methuselah Trail will be more challenging than it otherwise would be.
Having arrived at the trailhead, follow the pathway as it makes its way east. You will soon arrive at a junction within the trail, where you can choose to go either way as from here the route is a circuit. Whatever direction you choose to go, Methuselah Trail is fairly straightforward. Simply follow the pathway as it circumvents the highlands in the middle of the circuit. Ensuring you don't deviate from the trail at the one junction along its extent, the Methuselah Trail will deliver you back to the start of the circuit, where the parking lot is only a short distance away.
