Worth Benchmark

Hiking Worth Benchmark along with Crag Peak, Dome Rock & Needles Lookout

When the Central and Northern Sierras are getting pounded by a late season snowstorm, the Southern Sierra beckons. A random wandering around the Eastern and Western side of the Souther Sierra.  Worth Benchmark has some nice views of the Central Valley and Southern Sierra and a nearby Lake Success.
