Hill features

Mount Ericsson is a high, remote peak situated at the head of the Kern Canyon on the Kings-Kern Divide. The isolated, pyramid-shaped peak is an impressive sight from the south, in the vicinity of Lake South America. Its summit offers an expansive panorama of the entire Kern Basin. 

The summit may be reached most easily via the class 2 West Ridge from Lucys Foot Pass. There are numerous class 3 and 4 routes, the most spectacular of which is the long and beautiful South Ridge.

Unfortunately - or fortunately, depending on your perspective - Mount Ericsson is a long ways from anywhere. You're looking at a minimum of 2 days of hiking to reach the peak. If you approach from the west, you'll have a 25+ mile walk.
