Hey Fellow Backpackers there are some really important bridges that are are washed out from this seasons extraordinary snow pack. Instead of begin able to do a loop ( North lake to South Lake) I am afraid this is an out and back in some of the most challenging and beautiful area in the John Muir Wilderness area. Start out in South Lake over Bishops pass and sleep in Dusy Basin 8 miles . Next Day hike down and up Le Conte Canyon Towards Muir Pass 10 miles . Next Day Go Over Muir Pass around 12,000 feet and hike past Helen, Wanda and Sapphire lakes until you reach Evolution Lake and Sleep there 5-6 miles in the upper granite lakes basin. Then turn around and do the reverse route on the trail. Only seasoned backpackers need apply for a spot. Must be fully independent yet part of the group. Prefer not to share equipment for safety reasons. I am a slow but steady hiker, 62 years old.
