RE: High Sierra Trips - Big Pine Lakes

in #nature7 years ago

The parts I've hiked are not super tough. Some of the high passes in the Sierras can be a bit tiring, but it is all on a well maintained trail. Snow and river crossings can make things a bit more difficult, and there is a lot of snow and high water flow in the Sierras this year. But the PCT has become quite popular so you will actually see people on it quite often. The John Muir trail section is especially popular. Now days when I'm planning trips in the high Sierra I actually try to avoid PCT to maintain the solitude. But I will never forget my amazing journey hiking that trail in 2011. I plan on doing some blog posts here on Steemit about that trip. Stay tuned!
