Twin, Boomerang, and Island Lakes Hike
Details
Please change your RSVP to "not going" if you change your mind about coming.
We tend to keep moving and often spread out during hikes, so I prefer smaller groups so that I can keep track of how many are behind me. I will stop periodically to regroup if I haven't seen the people behind me for a while, especially at intersections and any place people might get lost. People who get ahead of me should do the same.
Go here for the Ten Essentials. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Essentials) Not everyone brings all ten for every hike, but everyone should at least bring extra water, extra food, extra clothing, and a head lamp or flashlight on every hike.
Facilities on the hike: vault toilets at trailhead.
Alltrails says the hike should be 6.5 miles out and back with about 1220 feet elevation gain. We will start near Wrights Lake in the Desolation Wilderness. Weather forecast for Sunday is 96 degrees in Davis, but 79 degrees at Wrights Lake.
Google Maps shows a 2 hour drive from Davis to the trailhead. It's a popular place for hiking, so we may have to park a mile back from the trailhead if the parking lot is full.
