Rae Lakes Loop, Sequoia Kings Canyon National Park, Bears, Camping & backpacking Paradise Valley, Mist Falls, JMT 4k, the Crown of the Sierra Nevada. Let me know if this video is still relevant in 2024?
This is a 5 day backpacking trip in Sequoia Kings Canyon National Park, doing the Rae Lakes loop with my new buddies Chuck The Mauler and Matt. Often considered one of the most beautiful hiking trail loops in the United States. We did this loop from Onion Valley going over Kersarge Pass and continuing counter clockwise. Our Camps where at Gilbert Lake, Charlotte Lake, Arrowhead Lake, then we split up and I camp one night a few miles below Junction Meadow to exit at Kersarge Pass the next day. Lots of wildlife, bears, dear, snakes and amazing views from one of the most stunning places in the Sierra. Paradise Valley, Mist Falls, Bubbs Creek, Glen Pass, Woods Creek, Arrow Creek. JMT (John Muir Trail) PCT (Pacific Crest Trail). I filmed this on my iPhone 11 Pro Max in 4k60fps.
