Thornhill Grind

Diez Vista & Buntzen Lake trail

Lunch Run

Easy Thornhill

Evening Run

Thru hiked the beautiful Sierra mountains from Yosemite (Tuolumne meadows) to Mt Whitney in 15 days, through lakes, meadows, waterfalls, eight 13K ft / 4km high passes, thunderstorms, lightning, hip deep river fords and hot springs, finishing at Mt Whitney, highest peak in the contiguous US. Resupplied on day 4 and day 8.
Hiking above 3000m elevation was harder for me, 100ft ascent feels like 100m ascent. And with so much elevation gain/loss, RIP the toe nails. Kept the pack weight as low as possible, 30lbs with 8 days food. Weather was highly unexpected with a lot of rain, flooding the trails and even my tent one night. Had to dig trenches around. Dug cat holes every day with no outhouses. Made a lot of friends on the trail. Overall, a very fun adventure. Would have to go back for the high Sierra trail or the SEKI loop.
