Winter Backpacking at Big McGee Lake

The month is October. It has been several weeks since I’ve returned home from thru-hiking the John Muir Trail, making this trip my first backpacking trip this winter. We went to chase fall colors, and even though the trees were starting to change color, we were not quite expecting so much snow.

Visiting the Saguaros in a Cabana Van

As silly as it may sound, I did in fact drive over 500 miles to see the Saguaros in Tucson, Arizona. Springtime in the desert is the best time to explore, and even though temperatures stayed just below 100°, this Cali girl remains grateful for all of the amenities that come with the Cabana Van.

Solo Backpacking in Big Sur- Timber Top

As someone who’s not a big fan of snow, when winter rolls around you’ll most likely find me road-tripping rather than on the trail, but this year I decided to go backpacking in Big Sur!

John Muir Trail Day 18: Le Conte Canyon to Palisade Lake

I’ve been sheltering myself from this storm for a few hours now. The long climb up to Palisade Lake didn’t make it to Upper before the thunder.

Wasn’t tired to stop, but needed water before reaching the ranger station. Don’t know why, just feel like I might get caught up talking with people.
