\"\"<\/a>Now that my full Sequoia & Kings Canyon 2024<\/strong> Video Series<\/strong><\/a> has been published, I wanted to follow up with a written overview of the hike, an Interactive Map<\/strong><\/a>, and a Gallery<\/strong>.

\n<\/strong>The trip took 17 days where I hiked some 150+ miles. That’s a pretty slow rate for me, but if you watched the video series you know I covered some tough terrain while hampered by a bad knee and from being out of shape again after a long “off season” (even longer than normal because of the knee!) I was actually content to take it slow and really was just happy to be back out in nature for a while to enjoy the scenery and play with a new camera and other gear. So in that sense the trip was a big success — especially considering that the knee held up and didn’t really hold me back.<\/p>\n

The general plan for the trip was to take two weeks on a route starting\/ending at Horseshoe Meadow with a mid-point re-supply at Onion Valley (which I left myself before setting out.) I padded my permit with a few days just in case I needed\/wanted more time (and I’m glad that I did!) I like beginning hikes at Horseshoe for several reasons:<\/p>\n
