High Sierra Topix

Well that's it! All the photos done for another amazing trip of a lifetime through the high Sierra. I just hope one day I can put it all down in writing!

Week 12

Rogue, awesome photos as always! You've had so many amazing trips. How was your path between Triple Divide Pass and the Kern-Kaweah River? All easy class 2? I had been thinking of heading up to the Glacier Lake area after the meetup this year. Thanks.

Yeah it was all class 2 but it's a complicated mess of shelves and ramps where you could easily get off into class 3 if you don't take the right way. Just have to carefully make your way.

I went down the north side of Cunningham Creek this June and never found any semblance of a trail. The bushwhacking was about as intense as it gets. The headwaters of the creek are lovely, and there are great views of the Whaleback once you near Cement Table Meadows, but overall I'd say it's not worth it.

If I am correct Rouge is talking about hiking in lower Goddard Canyon. When backpacking I always talked to people about cross country routes. Back in the day I was in the canyon a couple of different years but had learned from others not to go there. that this one was horrible. A few here in HST have written about how bad it is. When will people learn that it is a place to which you will repent having. I am sure glad I never hiked there.
