Minaret Vista Trail (from behind Mammoth Mountain Inn to Vista)

This is a 3 mile round trip hike. The trailhead is located behind Mammoth Mountain Inn and there's a sign indicating so. The elevation starts at about 9,000' and climbs to an elevation of 9,265 at Minaret Vista.
This is my first real hike in more than 3 months after I injured my knee, so I will be going slow.
