Overview

Nestled within the far reaches of California's Sequoia National Forest, McIver's Jeep Road leads to a namesake cabin, a historic site popular among offroad enthusiasts and hikers alike. Constructed in 1938 by miner Murdo George McIver, the cabin was relocated from Sand Canyon to its current location near McIver's Spring, close to his mining claim. Today, it serves as a shelter for Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) hikers and a destination for offroad adventurers. Tackling this trail requires traveling through diverse terrains, including rolling hills with scrub brush and sandy washes, and features narrow sections that require careful navigation.
