An 8.5 km out and back from the South Lake trailhead above Bishop in the John Muir Wilderness, on the Bishop Pass Trail and then the Treasure Lakes Trail to the Treasure Lakes at about 3,250 m, with about 415 m of climbing. The altitude makes the walk harder than its length suggests. An overnight needs a wilderness permit.
