ELEANOR CREEK FALLS VIDEO
December 2018. Just before Christmas, on the first day of the government shutdown I went on a one night winter backpacking adventure in Yosemite National Park in Northern California. I hiked from Cherry Lake (Stanislaus National Forest) to Lake Eleanor California. I visited Frog Creek Falls, and camped at Eleanor Creek Falls. It was a very tough hike. Was it freezing? Was there snow? Did I make it to the waterfalls? Come join me to find out the answers.
CARSON FALLS VIDEO
This is my Eastern Sierra, Carson Iceberg Wilderness,California- backpacking trip- Sep 2018. This was my last backpacking trip of the season, although the new season (the new waterfall season – that is) starts in October. I had an awesome trip to see Carson Falls and Llewellyn Falls in the Carson Iceberg Wilderness. I hiked through Bear Alley (I saw more bear scat than I’ve seen in my entire life combined – or pretty close to it). I almost froze on the second night as it was much colder than anticipated from the forecast. I saw many fabulous Fall Colors and incredibly beautiful landscape. It was a fantastic trip.
MINARET EDIZA FALLS VIDEO
Ansel Adams Wilderness, Eastern Sierra Nevada backpacking- Sep 2018. An amazing 3 day adventure into the Minarets at Devils Postpile National Monument, Inyo National Forest at Mammoth Lakes. I saw so may beautiful waterfalls, magnificent lakes, and stunning vistas: Upper Minaret Falls, Minaret Lake, Cecile Lake, Iceberg Lake, Ediza Lake Falls, Ediza Lake, Shadow Lake, Shadow Creek Falls, Shadow Lake Falls. Wow. The scenery was absolutely incredible. The descent from Cecile down to Iceberg Lakes was very treacherous and slow going. We called it the WALL OF DEATH. Yikes. Join me on this remarkable backpacking adventure.
