8.2 Miles with a hefty 3400ft of gain today. This was my 4th trip to Rubicon but my first trip across the ridge to Jakes.
Viewed: 110 times.
Parked at the trailhead atop the Rubicon housing development. There were 3 other cars a the trailhead when I left.
Viewed: 52 times.
Rubicon from the trailhead, a few miles distant and 2000 ft up

Zoomed shot of Rubicon. The ascent route approaches from the right of this shot- looping around the back to gain the summit.
Viewed: 61 times.
The early trail climbed steeply and then leveled off for about a quarter mile at a flat section that gave the first view of the lake.
Viewed: 47 times.
Looking up at the peak before heading into the steep section. There was a water tank near the end of the flat.
Viewed: 53 times.
Pictures don't quite do it justice- but the cairned trail of the last mile was quite steep.
Viewed: 56 times.
This spring usually has water- but it was bone dry today. Didn't see a drop of water on the entirety of today's route.
Viewed: 45 times.
Filtered view of the lake through the trees.
