suggestions for June ?
Posted: Wed May 28, 2008 4:15 pm
I was hoping to take a week long backpacking trip in July, and had been planning to head into the Kern Basin from Mineral King.
Unfortunately, I've had to pull it forward into June, starting maybe June 9th.
I'm worried about raging creeks, and snow or ice at higher elevations. That said, I'd really like to go somewhere spectacular, with good fishing.
I was thinking of the following:
- Ansel Adams, maybe up to Garnett or Ediza if the trails are not (too) snow-bound
- the Golden Trout wilderness, out to Kern Lake from Jerkey Meadows, though I'm not sure that this will be as beautiful
- ?
- the Emigrant wilderness? or perhaps Jennie Lakes? or just a section of Rae Lakes?
Any suggestions?
thanks,
