Sierras Thick with Snow
Jump to Comments
Yesterday afternoon on a flight from Atlanta to San Francisco, I flew over Mammoth Ski Resort and the John Muir/Ansel Adams Wilderness area. It was incredibly beautiful, but I can attest to the fact that no one will be getting onto these trails early this year. The entire Sierra is covered in thick snow — lakes frozen with no evidence that thawing will come anytime soon. If you have a suggestion about where to go backpack early this year while waiting for the trails and passes to thaw, let me know.Be light. Be safe. Be one with the pack.

I will be packing early in june in the Trinity Alps wilderness area in Northern Ca. It’s abosuletly gorgeous.
Grizzly lake, Lake Josephine and many more are so worth it!!!
This will be my first time heading to Mammoth to hike…I can hardly wait. The pictures look breath taking.
