Generals Highway - Giant Forest to Amphitheater Point - Sequoia National Park


Below are a few images along the Generals Highway from the Giant Forest to Amphitheater Point during our March 2018 visit to Sequoia National Park. Traction control devices, snow chains or snow cables, were required above Eleven Range Overlook. In my opinion, this is one of the most scenic drives in all the national parks.

Four Guardsmen - Entrance to Giant Forest - MP 14.8

Marble Fork Kaweah River watershed - MP 13.9

Marble Canyon - Eleven Range Overlook - MP 13.3

Ash Mountain (USGS Ash Peaks Ridge 5600') - Eleven Range Overlook - MP 13.3

Entrance to Sequoia and/or Kings Canyon National Parks requires an entry fee of $30 per passenger vehicle for a 7-day pass. Any of the America the Beautiful passes may be used instead.
