I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

What are the best Sierra hikes I have missed?
Hello - great info in this thread! This month I'll be 63 - got my backpack loaded & am intending to hit the trail Monday morning @ Lewis Camp trailhead - from there Trout Meadows & the Lower & Upper Kern. Never been there - that's one of the reasons I'm doing it, as I live just a few miles away & feel like it's almost in my back yard.
Some of the places I've been is Graveyard Lakes above Edison Lake; from Florence Lake, Evolution Valley; and years ago did the trek from Touloumne Meadows to Agnew Meadows; Mineral King to Franklin Lakes -- What memories -- I am truly happiest when on a trail hiking through pristine country!

Thanks for the welcome. I should have added that I'm way overdue to get to the back trails - I do a lot of car camping & even have a little camp trailer for improved campgrounds - hence the handle 'camp tramp'! But I just know too well that the beautiful country is up the trails - so this week, here I go!

Re: What are the best Sierra hikes I have missed?
Just one more suggestion - Red Mtn. Basin, Blackcap Basin, and Bench Valley. Get there from the west from Wishon/Courtwright reservoirs. Some off-trail, some on, but the offtrail is very easy. Beautiful lakes, right around timberline a lot of it, seems like it would be just your cup of tea. And you can taker the trail over Hell For Sure Pass and visit Goddard Canyon and Martha Lake - a must see place.
