High Sierra Topix

I did a thang on this subject:

Or more in particular, the route and basin starts here:

As an aside: What is interesting is that on the map, "Picket Lake" has only one stream, when really there is an inlet stream, and a mere few yards away there is a whole other outlet stream. It is really pretty unique at one of the most beautiful lakes in the Sierra.

Thanks Maverick and Doyle. I still haven't chosen my exact route yet...the thought of going over Shepherd Pass is tantalizing, as is any approach from the west. We'll see as I go back and forth through the week.

Doyle, I've studied your report many times (excellent report by the way). I hope to follow the route you described up the diagonal line of trees and beyond.
