Northern California Quickie Recommendations

[radioradio]

I'm headed to a wedding in San Jose in June (June 9th) and I'm planning on tacking on a quick 2-4 day backpacking trip (25-40 mi.). So far I'm looking at pt. reyes, big sur, yosemite and SEKI. I'm a bit overwhelmed between snowpack estimates, trailhead reservations and wildfire damage closures. Does anyone have suggestions I should look into?

There will still be plenty of snow in the Sierra--big storms coming this weekend again. And make sure you know the roads are open in Big Sur. Some are closed. Points Reyes is magical but will be foggy. Henry Coe near San Jose is a good option as well. Check it out

I'd vote Point Reyes, it might not be foggy

Here is a trip report that says August, but was actually June https://backcountrypost.com/threads/point-reyes-august-2022.10647/

The north or south rim of Yosemite Valley is totally doable in June https://backcountrypost.com/threads/yosemite-valley-2022.10632/
