July 4th Weekend Backpacking Trip


Sawtooth Pass: 11,400 ft Franklin Pass: 11,800 ft



On July 2nd, Kelly, AJ, Aerielle, Luke, and I loaded up our stuff and headed to Visalia.
There we stayed at AJ's relatives' place and headed up to Mineral King in Sequioa National Park early the next morning.
The plan was a four day hike over Sawtooth Pass, through Lost Canyon to Little Claire Lake, and out through Franklin Pass.
We ended up doing it in three days, and here are the pictures from those days along with comments.
Pics were taken either by myself or by my wife Kelly.


Day One (3 July)
Day Two (4 July)
Day Three (5 July)
