Sierra ’17

After my trip across the Olympics last summer, Krista and I cobbled together another trip together, this time out of greatest hits and new adventures in the Sierra. The basic idea was to start at Kearsarge Pass, just outside of Independence, take a meandering route north—sometimes on the JMT, sometimes off trail—and end up near Piute Creek. Then I’d run a bit further to Muir Trail Ranch to pick up a resupply, run back, and we’d head up the creek to Humphrey’s Basin, where we’d have a few more days to fumble around before exiting out Piute Pass, near Bishop.
