Malan's Basin

[Mtnman1830]

I have been wanting to do this hike for quite a while.

It is about 3 1/2 miles to the basin, gaining 2162' of elevation. The switch backs are hella steep!

I was able to go up and back down in 3 1/2 hours, so it really isn't that long of a hike.

Looking from Malans Peak to Lewis Peak and Ben Lomond.

Old Steam Engine boiler more than likely ran the sawmill.
