If Yosemite Valley is for tourists, Tehipite Valley is for true adventurers. Immerse yourself in a valley of mythical proportions on a 5-night, 6-day backpacking trek that will take you into the most majestic, powerful and remote valley in the Sierra. You've heard of Half Dome? Discover Tehipite Dome, the largest dome in the Sierra, with a sheer 3,500"² rise from the valley floor, and venture onto its ledges. Enjoy a layover day camped along the wildly exuberant Middle Fork of the Kings River with time to explore cascading waterfalls, swimming holes and native petroglyphs in the serene wonder of a valley filled with solitude. This 45-mile Y-shaped trek includes two base camps, roughly 4 miles of off-trail trekking, and a 3,500"² descent in just over 2 miles. Reaching Tehipite is not for the undetermined! Our route is rugged, overgrown, full of down trees and at times barely discernable. Yet all who have ventured into the Tehipite Valley would agree that the view from it's rim and sense of wonder from it's floor are worth every step.

At 14,505' the summit of Mount Whitney is the highest point in the lower 48 of the United States. You already know that summiting is a life-list goal for some and a nonpareil personal challenge that will give you a great deal of personal satisfaction. And for the rest of your life, you can impress your friends by casually mentioning your feat in conversation. But what you may not know is just how beautiful the rest of the High Sierra is, with stunning all day views of distant lesser known and unnamed peaks, beautiful mountain lakes and redolent wildflowers. Because of all this, and the fact that we will hike along the famous John Muir Trail (and Pacific Crest Trail), this is one of the most popular and sought after hiking destinations there is.

Sequoia / Kings Canyon National Park is truly a land of Giants. The General Sherman Sequoia Tree is the largest tree in the world (by volume) and is between 1800 and 2700 years old. We will see immense and rare giant sequoias in one of their few remaining groves, as these old growth redwood behemoths have fortunately been preserved. You will walk through groves of leviathan trees that are centuries or even millenia old and can grow more than 300' tall.

This six-day segment of the John Muir Trail takes us through some of the most beautiful portions of the JMT. This hike has a little of everything, a wide river valley, a high pass crossing, great views, stunningly beautiful lakes, and jagged peaks. This trip can be made in either direction but we like to start from Mammoth Lakes, enabling you to spend the night before the trip in Mammoth and gain some acclimatization to the elevation. We hope to get to camp in the early afternoon each day, to allow time to sit by a lake in the sun and read a book, go fishing or take an afternoon hike without the overnight pack.

Yosemite National Park is world famous for its extraordinary views, incredible waterfalls and towering granite cliffs and domes. The Yosemite Falls/Snow Creek Loop offers you the opportunity to experience all these wonders while avoiding the most popular and most crowded places in the park. You will hike up and out of Yosemite Valley, past the incredible 2400-foot Yosemite Falls, to the rim of the valley where you will bask in the glorious views and spend your first night. Then enjoy two days traveling through the high country towards North Dome, offering views of Half Dome and the Yosemite Valley, then to Indian Rock and Snow Creek before heading back down to the valley floor along the Snow Creek Trail. Enjoy the impressive views of Tenaya Canyon, Clouds Rest and Mt. Watkins as you make the steep descent, arriving back in the Valley in time for lunch. Whew! A strenuous but fantastic adventure!
