[pct-l] call for itineraries through lake strewn wilderness for a post-frost fall backpack

[reynolds@iLAN.com (Reynolds, WT)]

Probably the best single loop in the Sierra is the North Lake to South Lake
loop out of Bishop. You will be within 300 yards of water almost everywhere.
A more agressive approach is to continue past LeConte Canyon southward up
the Golden Starecase to Palisade Lake, then take the x-country over several
xcountry passes to Dusy Basin. I have heard that Mt. Sill is a walkup but a
very tough one.

PS: South on the JMT from Tuolumne is also nice as Rich mentioned.

Hi All,

Any suggestions for a one-weakish backpack of 10-15mi/day that 
would lead one through upper elevations (>4000') laced with 
swimable waters - be they lakes, creeks, ... -  along the PCT
or elsewhere in the West? 

Cheers,
Mike
