Leavitt Lake is a high mountain lake at an elevation of 2.983m (9,786ft) above the sea level, located in Mono County, in the east central portion of the U.S. state of California. It’s one of the highest mountain roads of California.
Located on the eastern crest of the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range, the road to the lake is unpaved. It’s called Leavitt Lake Road (Forest Service Road 077). Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. It has a well-deserved reputation for being dangerous because of unpredictable snowstorms and blizzards, and driving under these conditions, can be extremely challenging. The lake can be iced over until early July.
Do not travel this road in severe weather conditions. Avalanches, heavy snowfalls and landslides can occur anytime, being extremely dangerous due to frequent patches of ice. Stay away if you're scared of heights. Expect a trail pretty steep. Keep in mind that Leavitt Lake road is not plowed and often holds snow into July. The trailhead is only accessible with an SUV with high clearance and 4-wheel drive. It’s a pretty rough dirt road with a couple of seasonal shallow stream crossings.
