Recommendation for routes easy trails near Pinecrest, CA.

[Arepas]

Friends,

Planning a weekend trip to Pinecrest Lake and wanted to do an easy trail, my rig is top heavy (because of a RTT) so I am avoiding Niagara Rim and instead looking for something less-off-camber.

For now I found what I think will work which is route around Herring Creek but I am looking to do more that just this one. I attached the KLM and GPX of the planned route. But I would like to hear from you for any suggestions.

Eagle Peak is in that area. I'd recommend checking with the ranger station to check if the gate is open.

Eagle Peak OHV Trail

This route drives up to the top of Eagle peak where you can see nearly 360 degree views. There is also a trail you could can continue around if you want. The lava field with the guide stack is super neat.
