It has been an odd year in the backcountry. Record snowfall and the lingering snowpack pushed the usual seasons back- early season trips, peak season, monsoon season, mosquito and wildflower seasons were all pretty whacky.
Combine that with personal and logistical struggles-with peak season madness in Yosemite Valley, road closures due to winter storm damage, to new physical ailments- and 2023 was a challenge!
Which is what made this trip extra special. Three days looping through new terrain-it was my first trip in Emigrant-and having it all to myself for the most part was such a treat. The 'loop' ended up being a 32mi. out and back, for reasons you'll hear in the video, however all of them were great.
So glad to have gotten out there.
