LostCamKenny Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Looks pretty cool... thanks for the porn! Quote
kurthicks Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 FYI: bivying isn't technically allowed in that area... great route though, eh? Quote
mkporwit Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Man what a fun route. Is the water taxi over Saddlebag lake not running anymore? With the taxi it becomes an easy one-day. Quote
ckouba Posted September 23, 2009 Author Posted September 23, 2009 Water taxi was running for the two days we were in there but it's seriously not necessary- didn't time it but it's got to be less than an hour to walk around the lake. I don't know how long it runs but I'll bet if you call Tioga Pass Resort, they'd know or at least know who to call and find out. They make a great breakfast BTW... There are bivy restrictions in the research area and we knew we were close but we weren't in it (as best as we could tell). Gorgeous area though. Quote
