Re: Favorie Wilderness?
Yeah, that is one of the wide ramps that you could ride a skate board on if you were crazy. One of the reasons I want to go back is last time the fire was raging about 5-7 miles away down by Cherry Lake. I want to see it again with better vistas.

SEKI and southern part of John Muir....I like Emigrant but it is among the most persistently buggy places in the central Sierra. Carson-Iceberg has beautiful flower gardens and crazy volcanic rock outcrops but oh, the armies of cows.

Re: Favorie Wilderness?
Does SEKI count? I don't think parks are the same as official wilderness area designation....but that's just me nitpicking!
For memories of the times spent there....Yolla Bolly Wilderness!
For beauty and the rest...John Muir!

On forest service land: Ansel Adams. The Ritter Range is one of those places I never stop going to. One of those places you take friends when you want to REALLY show off the Sierras.
In a national park: Kings Canyon. No competition here at all. If you're scratching your head at this, you have probably not been more than a day in from the west side. You need to go in deeper. This park requires a longer approach to get to the really knock-your-socks-off stuff.

Re: Favorite Wilderness?
It's kinda like trying to pick your favorite song or band. It depends upon the time and the moment at hand, because there are so many that are just flat out fantastic!. For me at the end of the day, the John Muir Wilderness will always be at or near the top. Started there in the 70's and have been going back ever since.

Not sure how I missed this, thanks for the tagline troutdog.
I too fall into the "it's all good" category for wilderness. If I had to pick just one, it would likely be Kings Canyon.
