Thanks Cameron,
Congratulations on your fishing successes... apparently Giantbrookie, old ranger, and the other real fishermen are the sort who will only pass on advice if they can kill you soon after.

Harlen.
great report-and amazing shots! some real framers there
love the one of you and the dogs gazing off towards unnamed peaks. and the alpenglow Feather Peak is amazing as well.
i had the pleasure of getting out to that area last year and fondly remember how gorgeous the alpenglow was on those peaks-although i didn't luck out on any cloud formations however. those are always spectacular.

Actually, many are those who have received the info who are still breathing and fishing today.Harlen wrote:Thanks Cameron,

With regard to this particular wonderful expedition (all parts nice, but the last part around Seven Gables was particularly stunning) I didn't expect to see many of the key spots thawed, hence I figured that fishing was not a priority. For the usual "coded" version of fishing on a trip that overlaps a touch with this route, see: http://www.highsierratopix.com/communit ... 76&p=99570 For the fishing narrative one has to scroll to the end of the post. Yes it was intentionally done that way to disconnect it from the chronological narrative and the route....
Since my fishing (etc.) website is still down, you can be distracted by geology stuff at: http://www.fresnostate.edu/csm/ees/facu ... ayshi.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Yes, and so you wouldn't have to kill anyone.
I know you're a killer at heart John; I am halfway through the Romance of the Three Kingdoms epic novel you recommended, and the score is Killings~ 15,000*
Romances~ nil- the big "goose-egg!"
*(and a large % involve beheadings, stranglings, and bodies lopped in half!)
So, we reckon you are a killer not a lover. How many fish have you beheaded?

Re: Trip Report from Bear Basin
How did I miss this post?
Great photos of a place I've been but not under those circumstances. A little too much snow for my taste.
It always amazes me to see the colors of the water in Bear Creek.
