Home / Mojave Preserve and Desert bikepacking trips / 2007: Henry Coe State Park Mountain-Bike Camping / Day 3: A short day hike from Mississippi Lake to Bear Spring /
Back near my campsite, Bear Mountain Peak Trail veers upward from Willow Ridge Road
This trailhead begins just north of the outhouse at the north end of Mississippi Lake.
I considered exploring this trail today, but, in the haze of my fatigue, and the 90-degree weather to which I'm still acclimating, I decided that I'd feel fulfilled just walking to Bear Spring to get some better water.
Maybe next year?
The trail marker indicates that we are 12.1 miles from Coe Headquarters.
