John Muir Trail (JMT) – Resupply Options

February 10, 2016 by SweetPea

Reflecting back on our 2014 hike of the JMT - The John Muir Trail is one of our favorite trails that we have hiked.  The scenery was spectacular, the weather was quite good and we were able to hike with some great folks. When planning for this … [Read more...]

Aug 9 – Mount Whitney

August 9, 2014 by Beardoh

Finally had a good temperature for sleeping last night.  There was a big moon last night which really lit up the night sky. Got up around 5:30 so we could get an early start and meet up with the rest of the group by 7:00. Once we got up to Guitar … [Read more...]

Aug 8 – Beardoh’s Favorite Spot

What a miserable day.  We can't remember ever being so cold for so long.  We had planned to leave by 6:00, but it started raining around 4:00 and there was some thunder and lightening, so we waited a bit and left just before 7:00.  It continued to … [Read more...]

Aug 2 – Pinchot Pass

August 2, 2014 by Beardoh

Got out of camp just before 7:00.  For some reason we were awake before 5:00, so the early start was fine for us.  We had about 5 miles to Pinchot Pass and it was fairly gradual uphill until we got close.  We realized again that we could have … [Read more...]
