Mario Larsen+FollowEagle Ridge Hike Thrill5.3-mile challenging loop near Soledad—tackle volcanic ruins, ladders, and narrow passages for Pinnacle Rocks’ wild views. Start at Bear Canyon Visitor Center (east entrance best), trek through million-year-old lava shattered by the San Andreas Fault. Spot rare condors soaring, squeeze through geological mazes, and enjoy spring’s wildflower blooms. No dogs allowed—check cave closures (https://www.nps.gov/pinn/planyourvisit/cavestatus.htm) and avoid summer heat. Tough? Yes. Worth it? Absolutely. #Outdoor #Hiking #PinnacleRidgeHike #EagleCanyonTrail #VolcanicViews10Share
