The road to Sheep Mountain in California isn’t an easy one

The road to the summit is totally unpaved. It’s called White Mountain Road. Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. Stay away if you're scared of heights. Expect a trail pretty steep. It’s a 4x4 track open from about June 1 - October 31 (weather and snow permitting). This trail is not for the faint hearted – it is steep, and there are spots where a slip or fall could cause serious injury. The weather on this zone is harsh and highly unpredictable.
