John Muir Trail Photos 2018

December 16, 2018 by Beardoh

The JMT.  I love this trail.  I aim to hike it (or in the near vicinity) every two years for the foreseeable future - whether that be doing either the JMT alone or as part of the PCT or something (hmm - Theodore Soloman's Trail?).  I love the blues … [Read more...]

JMT 14 – Yosemite Valley

October 1, 2018 by Beardoh

Daily Miles - 16 Good night of sleep on my last night. Wind died down, it never got too cold. As usual, up to pee more times than I’d like…oh well. I had an early start planned, but the alarm on my phone probably rang for 15minutes before I heard … [Read more...]

JMT 10 – Silver Pass

September 27, 2018 by Beardoh

Daily Miles - 18 Woke up with a swollen eye. Not sure what happened. Feels like someone punched me during the night....as far as I know I didn't encounter anyone during sleep. Halfway down the long set of switchbacks to the basin where Lake … [Read more...]

JMT 9 – Selden Pass

September 26, 2018 by Beardoh

Daily Miles - 22 Cold last night. I got up at 3:30 and put on my base layer and back to sleep. These deep river valleys are quite cool - katabatic effect. Saw southbound PCT Later Gator, who we had met on the Colorado Trail in 2017. Great to … [Read more...]
