This is the upper portion of the South Mt. Waterman Trail that connects Three Points and Mt. Waterman. The main thing to know about is the two junctions. Below is the junction with the Twin Peaks Trail.

The junction at the Mt. Waterman Summit Trail also connects to the Mt. Waterman Trail that starts on the north side of Mt. Waterman near Buckhorn Campground. Just go up to reach Mt. Waterman.

The junction with the Mt. Waterman Summit Trail. There is a nice rock formation to the south at the junction. It is a good place to stop and rest prior to going to the summit.
