Fine Views in the Big Meadow - a photo on Flickriver

            Day four of the Big SEKI Loop involved leaving the JMT junction around  the Middle Fork of the Kings River and heading up through Big Meadow to the Golden Staircase and over Mather Pass.  I ended the day off trail, near the base of Split Mountain, a remote 14,000ft+ peak on the eastern edge of the park. Certainly lots of people on the JMT which was expected but disappointing.However, the Palisades Lake area and views from Mather Pass made up for it!   The scenery is sublime Sierra classic of soaring grey walls and a crystal clear river.

Photo taken during Day 4 of my Big Sequoia/Kings Canyon Loop. This was about a 300km/180 mile loop through various trails and off trail rambling in the Sierra Mountains of two National Parks.  It included elements of the PCT, High Sierra Trail and John Muir Trail with less crowds.
