    High Sierra Trail

    I did an early trip of this a few years ago! Absolutely my favorite hike ever! You can check out my snowy version of your pictures here. In my last picture, you can see I ended the trip just under 50 pounds....ewwww I was pretty exhausted after all that. Congrats on the accomplishment!

    Best Alternatives to the Sierras
