Great weekend in a place that no one knew would be so impressive. As you look at these photos or any others online, there is no way to visualize what it looks like in person. The views are extremely vast on a scale I'm not used to. The only thing similar I think would be high altitude meadows in Colorado. California never ceases to amaze me in the diversity of its terrain. I had a amazing and relaxing weekend!
Travis and I met up with the crew around 930pm at funnel lake. This is me blinding everyone lol
heres what I woke up to
Our camp site in the daylight
Heading away from the lake on the way to see the glacier
Getting close to the glacier view areas
There it is!
Ice stays all year on this side of Mordor
Next up was Baker creek for our camp site.
The next morning it was time to start the trip to high altitude. This is the salty peterson mine
This brook crossing was horribly defaced with flowers
Success! 11000 feet MSL
progress was slow lol. Around every corner was a view that demanded time to be taken in
Heres Travis standing in the foreground
Schriber mine itself was a waste of time, but the trip there more then made up for it. This random camp was along the way
