Harrison Pass / Trip Agenda
Posted: Thu May 24, 2012 8:03 am
I previously posted requesting info regarding Elizabeth Pass. This post is an attempt to clarify what I'm attempting to do. Basically, a 17 day loop visiting my favorite SEKI areas - without much of a firm plan, agenda - or clue. Just go where I feel like and come out on day 17. I've done similar trips of 14-17 days for the past 24 years into different locales. I'm solo and not resupplied, so pack weight is a concern - and about day 9 I usually start hallucinating about a beer and a pizza. One of the most memorable nights I've spent in the Sierra was below the south side of Elizabeth camped on a 3 x 6 foot level area adjacent to a small water seep.
I'e previously been turned back by snow on Elizabeth and "this doesn't quite seem right" attitude check on Harrison - but perhaps experience does breed confidence. So what does the resident expertise say about desending Harrison from south to north?
