Mammoth Lakes, Crystal Crag (CA)
The most popular local morning or evening run/scramble in Mammoth Lakes. It starts from the edge of the pavement in the main parking lot at Lake George and heads up any route possible to the summit starting via a couple prominent trails then scrambling over rough ground and talus to the base of the North Arete, climbing and traversing the ridge to the south summit before descending back to the start. The route can be done in multiple directions with creative route finding, but has to end on the pavement from either trail head at Lake George.
