Hiking
McFadden Peak is a 7,135-foot mountain with a lookout tower situated on the top. The tower is situated at the end of an old forest service road, but there is also a hiking trail that travels to the top that is the more popular option for those looking to hike or run up to the lookout. You get a pretty awesome view of the Sierra Ancha Wilderness across the valley to the east from the top.
