Find Your Adventure √î√�Œ©Backpacking in Sequoia-Kings Canyon & Yosemite - Sierra High Route
trip overview
Backpacking in California
Highlights
The Sierra High Route is packed with expedition-style adventure; 195 miles long & mostly off trail.
The Sierra High Route is packed with expedition-style adventure! The trek is 195 miles and the terrain is mostly off trail. This means that there will be a lot of route finding and long physical days, but also a lot of reward. The trip will require expedition style team work and you must be in excellent physical shape with extensive backpacking experience a pre-trip requirement.
To get you in the right frame of mind, some examples of extensive backpacking experience include the Trans-Sierra Trail, Long Trail, John Muir Trail or longer sections of the Appalachian Trail, Continental Divide Trail or the Pacific Crest Trail. Along with your expert guides, the SHR will have the typical seamless SYMG logistical support, including food drops, shuttles and accommodations. We will be using modern ultra-light techniques and gear to keep the packs as light as possible.
You'll need to feel comfortable in off trail terrain (talus and boulder hopping), and have a certain sense of adventure and positive attitude that breeds success on a long journey of this type. Call for more details about this exciting trip!
This trip was chosen by National Geographic Adventure Magazine as one of the Best New Trips of 2010.
