Sporadic dispatches from the hinterlands.

Sierra camping

Backpacking Bear Creek area

I took a short backpacking trip, starting from the West side of the Sierra. I drove up Highway 168 and Kaiser Pass Road to a trailhead called Bear Creek Diversion. I’d never been anywhere near there before. I hiked up the Bear Creek Trail to the Pacific Crest Trail, then up into some high lakes off the PCT. Great trip!

Woodies!

Once again, it’s time for the biggest annual event that we can walk to from our house: Woodies on the Wharf.
