That sounds like a plan . Thank you.giantbrookie wrote: Anyhow, perhaps a strategy would be to try Little Lakes Valley (still my top choice) and if that doesn't work you can fall back on the Saddlebag area (including the additional two options above). Note for the Saddlebag area you can get wilderness permits at the resort there--you don't have to go all the way over Tioga Pass to the Lee Vining ranger station.
Need some under 3 miles (one-way) backpacking destinations

I like the Little Lakes idea, but this weekend I ran into a couple with their five year old daughter and their three year old son on their way down from Eagle Lake in Mineral King. It worked perfectly for them. The kids held up well and the options were great for them. The hike can be a little rough for kids, but if a three year old can hack it...
