Description
Sunday Peak and its sister Bohna Peak are in the Sequoia National Forest and are the northernmost peaks on the HPS list. They are situated at the southwest end of the Sierra Nevada, with summit views that can extend as far as Mount Whitney and the Great Western Divide. Before the Cedar Fire in 2016, their pretty trails wound gradually through a beautiful forest of green ferns and tall pines. Sadly, the fire destroyed some of Sunday’s forest and much of Bohna’s. Nevertheless, the area is regrowing, and the views remain as spectacular as ever.
Route 1 climbs gently on a pleasant forested trail to the summit. Sunday is often hiked with Bohna, connected by a motorcycle track on a steep ridge from nearby Bohna Peak.
