California – BOOTS on the TRAIL

Four Guys and a Peak (May 1985)

A long ago, but very memorable, climb of Lone Pine Peak in California’s Sierra Nevada.

An excellent hike past Keane Wonder Springs and Cyty’s Mill to the Big Bell Extension Mine high in the Funeral Mountains.

An easy loop hike with big views at Northern California’s Lava Beds National Monument.

Kearsarge Peak – our first climb together in California’s Sierra Nevada.

Notes from a backpack along the John Muir Trail in the far away days of August, 1956.

Exploring access to Elk Lake (and fire damage) in the Red Buttes Wilderness.
