During winter or spring Eagle Point and Obstruction Point make for an excellent day trip or backpacking destination which offers views of spectacular mountain ridges, great sunset, and amazing star gazing opportunities.

The route is popular with both skiers and snowshoers.

Please check avalanche forecast before heading into the backcountry.

During summer, this area is known for abundance of wildflowers and wildlife.
