Seeking partner/partners for SHR 8/23 to 9/3

[aogo]

Hello. I am planning on hiking the SHR from minaret lakes ( I want to take the trail to minaret) to twin lakes and am seeking a partner or two. Permit entrance date is 8/23 and exit date is 9/3. My partner and I completed the sections from kings canyon to Reds meadow the last two years. My partner doesn't want to go this year.

A few important things to mention; I'm not fast or young. We kept up with Roper's suggested schedule the last couple years but it was a push at times. I'm planning on about 5 days from red's meadow to tuolome and then four from tuolome to twin lakes. My style is to get up early, be efficient and hike as much as possible before the heat hits. I hate the heat but a refreshing dip in the lakes is always on the agenda! Also, It's important to me to share the navigation. I do not want to do it all and I don't want to simply follow someone who is faster and doing their own navigation.

Please let me know if you are interested. I'm at ahclimb@gmail.com. Thanks!
