One-day snowshow trip on westside Sequoia/Kings Canyon
Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2013 12:36 pm
Can anyone recommend a particular snowshoe route accessed from the west side of Sequoia/Kings Canyon?
We are intermediate levels snowshoers in excellent shape. Orienteering experience. But would prefer to stay on a trail.
A loop among the Sequoias would be nice. An alpine venture with views of higher peaks could be even nicer. But I'm sure the Mineral King road is closed.
How is the route towards Pear Lake in the winter? (Would want to avoid The Watchtower version, if that is even an option...one of our people is scared of heights.)
Crescent Meadow?
Trail going to an overlook of Kings Canyon?
