Yosemite National Park – BOOTS on the TRAIL

And so our smoky, adventurous, and drama-filled first experience with mule packing comes to a happy conclusion

Mules & Smoke: Day 5 (High Sierra) 10-Sep-2020

A long day on the trail, over two passes, through scenery mostly obscured by smoke.

A stiff wind had cleared the air, allowing us unobstructed views of the stunning scenery in Matterhorn Canyon.

A post-rescue layover day around a beautiful lake in the Yosemite Wilderness.

A short day hiking and a long night waiting for a rescue.

The first day of our hiking with pack stock trip in the High Sierra: Virginia Lakes to Virginia Canyon.
