2015 Trips
Roadtrip - White Sands
3 miles of hiking • 250' elevation gain • 1 night
Mainly used this as a place to sleep for a night. Camped in Oliver Lee. Hiking in the dunes was really neat. Wished we could have camped along the Backcountry Loop trail.
Roadtrip - Grand Canyon, North Rim
10 miles of hiking • 2500' elevation gain • 3 nights
Hiked down the North Kaibab Trail as our main event. Then did a bunch of smaller hikes touring all over the North Rim. This was probably the best (and hardest) hiking of the whole roadtrip.
Roadtrip - Sequoia National Park
8 miles of hiking • 1000' elevation gain • 2 nights
Hiked a couple short ones. Wife was 6 mo. pregnant so we took it easy. Main hike was up to Little Baldy. Really nice. Fairly easy hike and highly rewarding views.
Did some other shorter hikes to see Gen. Sherman, Giant Tree Forest, and Crescent Meadow.
